True. But true to the original. And being able to hide your titan
outside of LOS and hit with 3 Barrage weapons would, under some
circumstances, be quite useful.
Besides, I try to follow the rule that anything new had far better err
on the side of "weak and cost-innefective" than Dairy-Product.

Weak - well, it's the closest and simplest I could get to a "+1 to hit"
in 2nd ed. As for head movement, Correct, this was the intention.
Ta for the feedback. Would like anyone using this in playtesting to give
me some e-mail on how it works out.
Let's see, we have:
Knights (MC or Cav) -
Titan Variants
Chaplain (I particularly like this one, congrats to the author)
Even Squat proposals on one website.
I'd suggest that it would be a good idea to playtest these, and send
them off to JJ for White Dwarf. Make sure we "assert our moral right to
authorship" though.
