IMHO - In My Humble Opinion
AFAIK - As Far As I Know
IIRC - If I Remember Correctly
BTW - By The Way
There are others, but these are the common ones.
As for Titans vs Eldar Jetbikes:
1. Try Doing Unto Others - First.
This means using a Land Speeder or Thawk to observe fire for your
barrage Titans. A Typical config vs Eldar is to keep your Titan behind a
hill, arm it with, say, 1 Barrage Missile Launcher, 2 Titan
Multi-Rocket-Launchers, and a Landing Pad ( and a Deathstrike cannon
head is always useful), then pour directed fire without scattering onto
those pesky bikes. A Barrage Missile can wipe out quite a few. 3 Titans
armed this way can take out a windrider host in its entirety.
2. Be a Heretic
The first time a Windrider Host attempted to gang-up one of my Titans,
they experienced the Old Chaos Tentacle Trick. Half wiped out before
combat. I had some First Fire too, and the lot went west for no
casualties.
