I like the old system, but allow Titan to have a save roll modify by CAF
this will show the Titans armor against Infantry. This is what I've said
before, no big rule change but maybe a few more rolls of the dice and will
in the long run make Titans strong. Try it, and you'll see what I'm talking
bout.
