We have made som modifications....
First we have added a conversion field to the armour, then the titan gets a
repair roll of 4+ before any damage is rolled. A damaged location is
repaired at 3+. This is infact three layers of defence. However, even a
single shot from a devestator can kill this titan at any time!!!! And you
have to move this titan forward in order to maximise it's firepower, which
makes it quite vunerable. If your opponent takes along a longranged
titankilling weapon like a Volcano cannon, you might loos the Titan without
even fiering a single shot!!!! Based on this I think 550 is a fair price!!!
Other than that, the Slann now seems to be a balanced playable force! I saw
Eivind claimed to loos bigtime, which he IMHO didn't. He ha very poor luck
with the dice in Close Combat, but had he not lost all his reserve infantry
to a insane volly (How many hits Rune?) from the necron titan in the first
turn, he could have held a VP, then the game would have lasted another turn,
and Rune was running out of troops with which to take out Eivinds Titan!!!!
And Runes companies where pretty darn close to breaking!!!!
The game was fun to watch!!! I guess the best part is seeing Rune really
having to fight for his victories, and finding that a hard fought victory is
far sweeter than any prior Slann walkovers!!!! :)

Hi!
Regarding, the Necron titan, we played it at 800, you at 550, why not
comprimaise and leave it at 650? I think 550 is too check, that the
points for a decent reaver.
How about it?
Oh could someone get me the beta rules with the corrections made?
