Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. XV

The bases for all of the remaining Legio Astraman were designed, just two more miniatures to build - the Warhound Scout Titans. I looked upon the once I already build, three of them, unfortunately with fixed weaponry. Something that I want to take care of with these two and add further variation.

I used some of the traitor panels and removed the additional spikes / stylized chaos stars, and as I wanted more dynamic poses, I cut the aligners from the hip sections for a more flexible position on my warhounds.

Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. XIV

The base building continues, and I pick up where I left off last time with Part XIII, but added to further bases to cover the base design for the two Warhound Scout Titans.

I started with the base for the Warmaster, where I used the Falchion wreck as a primary piece for the base design. I cut down the tracks, to lower the height of the tank's silhouette.

Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. XIII

We're now in the post-Battle for Uulda part of this series and it is time to complete the Legio Astraman project. We're having for the main titan legio four (+maybe two further) models left;

As I'd like to cover the bases first, and I already built the Warmaster with a slightly raised leg, so he could stomp on something.

The idea was to recreate something that I did with one of the Warlord Titans (this one will be used with Legio Magna, so the similar pose doesn't bother me within Legio Astraman), and have him stand upon a lower terrain piece or upon a (super) heavy vehicle.

Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. XII

Next and final step for the preparations for the Battle for Uulda, were the bases. I bought the name plates for the bases and command terminals from Versatile Terrain, and used their Print your own-service for the initial 7 bases.

I went for the recessed plates with their Gothic (Calson Antique) font, without any further decoration (but most likely will go for some skulls or the eye of horus for the traitors) and chose the following names;

Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. XI

While I made progress on the Knights of House Moritain, it would be time to move on with the remaining Legio Astraman Reaver. I did the bases the same way as before, and added the two dry brushes after Citadel Contrast Aggaros Dunes dried. I used Army Painter Desert Yellow and Army Painter Skeleton Bone, and brushed it over the feet of the miniatures later as well.

As the armour plates were painted white and green, with the golden trim, I wanted to do the chevrons for some variation on left leg again and cut up some strips of masking tape and added the dark blue contrast in Citadel Base Paint Night Lords Blue. If you're not using an airbrush to do this, painting over the masking tape with the base colour creates cleaner edges, just like you would do on a wall.

Adeptus Titanicus – Battle for Uulda IV Titan Walk

After the Battle for Uulda we used the chance that we were all together, had the miniatures and terrain out and build a quick setup to take some pictures of our maniples. Some were the same, you saw in last years battles and titan walk, others were new builds or had new miniatures added to them.

We used the gaming mats, along with the vast terrain collection of our host Broncofish, who had both the Civitas Imperialis terrain and his own 3d printed terrain, that he sculpted himself for GrimDarkTerrain.

Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. X

Only a few days until the next Battle for Uulda, and quite a bit to do. The regular maniple of the Legio Astraman has to be increased by a single Reaver Titan, and I need a few Knights to have the various lists between 1.250 and 2.000 points. Beyond that, a couple of smaller things to take care of, but let es see what the to-do list for Legio Astraman is so far:

  • Assembly of Reaver
  • Assembly of Sunfire Annihilator
  • Printing the further weapon options
  • Adding of magnets
  • Base decoration for Reaver
  • Name plates ordered
  • Name plates printed
  • Name plates painted
  • Decals sorted for Titans
  • Base paints
  • Washes and Highlights
  • Decals applied

So I build another Sunfire Annihilator for the Warlord Titan, and added the magnets to the Reaver as well as the weapon options. So we can check off two things from the to-do list.

Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. IX

What is the status on Legio Astraman since the last update? Well, the titan legion from Graia was deployed in the Battle for Uulda, and the next escalation level of the conflict is called for october, so there is a bit to do.

This is the current status of the maniple itself, with a few weapon options. As these were the first models  I build, along the Titanicus reviews, I unfortunately glued most of the weaponry fix in space, with the exception of the magnetised Warlord options and the backs of the Reaver. The models are battle-ready, are missing some final weathering / highlights, decals and the name plates. As well as some replenishment.

Adeptus Titanicus – Legio Astraman Ad Arma Pt. VIII

Among the aftermath of the Battle for Uulda I decided to stock up on some further items for Adeptus Titanicus, primarely the two Legio books for the Loyalists and Traitors.

Adeptus Titanics - Traitor Legios & Loyalist Legios Adeptus Titanics - Books

And as these are english publications, they are excluded from the fixed book prices of German publications, so I could save some bucks from ordering these online. As I have quite the extended collection of wargaming books, I think it is a very lazy design to not keep an eye on the backs of the books. The logo is wandering, the titles are as well. With a series that aims for collectors and more mature gamers (along with covering quite a few books) it is a major bummer they didn't pay attention to this. Honestly, with the pricing and all, I expect better.

Adeptus Titanicus – Battle for Uulda III Titan Walk

As a sum up of the Battle for Uulda weekend, we did a brief photoshoot of the miniatures we brought to Uulda. A good mix, three traitors and three loyalists.
