Hi Rune!

Although you could carry a Command Unit on some titans, the commander
always stays a seperate detachment from the titan, and can not order it
about. Titans already have commanders, and they're not about to let some
ignorant infantry goon, who knows nothing about titans, crash THIER
titan.

Gargants have Nobz on board, but they may only give orders for thier own
Gargant. Except, in the case of a Big Mob, where the Non-Command
Gargants are penalized, if the Boss Gargant is destroyed. They must
also keep within 25cm. of the Boss Gargant. Gargant Nobz, only enable
the Gargants to act independently (Like Skullhammas), without having to
get orders from the more numerous infantry Nobz. Gargants like all
titans, are never true command units. They cannot give orders to
troops. This is very well documented in the 2nd Edition rules.


What does everyone else think?

Warprat ;)
