        There were 3 categories: crew, commander, and titan honors.
The actual honors were different depending on whether the titan in
question was Imperial, Eldar, or Ork.

        The crew honors gave you bonuses like '+1 to hit with 1
weapon system' (useless in e40k), or 'lucky - can reroll 1 die
during the battle'.

        Commander honors would let your titan automatically fire
first or move second, regardless of who won initiative, or there
was one that let you try and step on any enemy you touched while
moving.

        Titan honors were along the lines of better armor, more
void shields, psychic saves, or escape pods so that if the titan got
destroyed you could keep all your crew & commander honors (the ork
version of the escape pod was a commander honor - 'Kunning Escape
Plan', and it only saved the commander, not the crew =).

        But, considering titans rarely, if ever, survived a
battle, getting more than 1 honor was pretty rare (never saw it
myself).
