Warmaster Heavy Battle Titans are the embodiment of the Omnissiah's wrath. Once hidden away from prying eyes, these war machines have been unleashed in the cataclysmic days of the Horus Heresy.

Warlord Battle Titans bestride the battlefields of the Horus Heresy, their thunderous tread heralding destruction. A mainstay of the Collegia Titanica, these Titans are among the largest war machines ever devised by the Mechanicum, and mount a vast arsenal of weapons – Arioch-pattern power claws shred enemy Titans in melee, while plasma annihilators offer intense mid-range firepower.
Warhounds are the smallest class of ‘true’ Titan, classed as Scout Titans in reference to their common operational role as vanguards to larger Titan battle groups, or support elements to lesser ground forces. When confronting enemy god-engines, Warhounds must rely on their speed, manoeuvrability, and pack tactics to bring down their larger counterparts.

The Warbringer Nemesis Titan serves the Collegia Titanica in the role of heavy fire support. It mounts a single Warlord-scale weapon on its upper carapace and Reaver-scale weapons on its arms – sacrificing the speed, armour and manoeuvrability of a conventional Battle Titan in favour of firepower far in excess of its size. With a Mori quake cannon launching world-shaking shells of arcane power, the Warbringer Nemesis is a sight to inspire dread in all but the most battle-hardened enemy Princeps.
The skaven are a race of perfidious ratfolk who gnaw on the very fabric of existence, pouring from their Under-Empire in teeming swarms to spread corruption and conquer the Mortal Realms in the name of the Great Horned Rat.

Even in the midst of battle, Technoarcheologists guide their servants through vital procedures with a machine-like focus.
A Sydonian Skatros is a sinister cybernetic sentinel, stoic and unmoving until the moment an enemy strays into range of their huge rifle. Mechanical, stilt-like limbs allow them to traverse hazardous terrain and survey the environment, shrouded by a smog of incense-exhaust. With protocol-driven precision and an advanced scanner known as the achillan eye, they lock on to their foes’ weakpoints and unleash pinpoint fire that sows panic and agony – all the better for eroding enemy morale.
The Solar Auxilia are the elite corps of the Imperial Army, recruited from all across the galaxy. The soldiers of the Solar Auxilia are equipped with the weapons and gear to persecute war in some of the harshest environments imaginable. Though outmatched individually by the mighty Space Marines, these troops are far greater in number and prepared to throw down their lives for the cause – whether sworn to the Golden Throne of Terra, or the ambition of the Imperium's rebellious Warmaster.
