After reading Warprat's rules they seem to be pretty good... not
overwhelming for the infantry and most of them die in the attempt

infantry I have a problem with... they move like infantry but have
always been classed as either super heavy or Knight... I REALLY don't
think a +12 Bloodthirster is in the same class as ANY infantry, elite
or not.
I still think the electrohull then fighting close combat normally
works well too... but let's take it to the tape ;>
I assume normal infantry saves on 5+ and elites save on 4+
a) 10 IG Tacticals VS. a Slasha Gargant.
3 tactical survive to combat.
Group CAF Titan Defence
(4d6 + 0 = 12 average) / (12 + 2d6 = 19 average)=
0 hits
b) 6 Tactical Marines + 3 Rhinos VS. a Phantom Titan.
2 marines and 1 rhino survive.
Group CAF Titan Defence
(4d6 + 2 = 11 average) / (12 + 2d6 = 19 average)=
0 hits
c) 4 Exarchs VS. a Subjugator Titan with Hell Claws (+1d6 X2).
2 Exarchs survive
Group CAF Titan Defence
(3d6 + 8 = 17 average) / (5 + 3d6 = 15 average)=
1 hit
Last exarch survives.
d) 4 Terminators + 6 Tactical Marines VS. a Chaos Warhound Titan.
2 Terms and 2 Tactical Survive.
Group CAF Titan Defence
(5d6 + 6 = 21 average) / (8 + 2d6 = 15 average)=
1hit
Last Terminator survives.
e) Mortarion with Growth (Chaos Reward Card, CAF X2) + 5 Chaos Marines
with Long Spines, Tentacles, and Fangs (Chaos Reward
Cards, +3CAF)
VS. A Warlord Titan.
Mortarion and 2 marines survive all cards played on Mortarion
Mortarion not affected by titan antipersonell weapons as he is knight
class.
Group CAF Titan Defence
(4d6 + 23 = 35 average) / (14 + 2d6 = 21 average)=
1 Hit. Pick location as Mortarion is Knight class.
Looks like the numbers end up being similar... but the infantry tends
to die horribly... The other question I had was Multiple hits...
Why should Infantry be able to score multiple hits on a titan when
not
even other titans armed with multiple close combat weapons can score
more than 1 hit?
Just curious...
Mike.
