        Not true, IMHO. In Epic 2nd edition, I felt the best way to
take out Titans was with big guns, say -2SM or bigger. This wasn't
found on anything smaller than a MBT. (You could also Thundercheese
it, but I'm ignoring that).
        If you take tanks and flyers, there should be no trouble at
all shooting down titans. If you're insistent on nothing larger than
a man, you're in trouble. Infantry support weapons aren't mobile
enough to take on a Titan running around. But the only anti-big
things that Bayani took were 4 heavy stands and 2 Predators. Not
enough to down a Titan.
