Where can I find stats and rules for titans and tempests? Are these still legal? Where can I get the whole rundown on them?

I dont think they ever bothered updating them past second edition.  The kits ceased production well before the release of third.  Last time I saw one was about three years ago at DragonCon.  The past two conventions I didnt see any titans around at all.

Its too bad.  That 2 foot tall Phantom was amazing.

god the tempest was so awesome before

two sets of triple linked shuriken catapults (and thats 3 shots not rerolls) and a twin linked shuriken cannons, and a pulse laser which fred one str 10 shot or 6 strength 7 shots... and the model looked pretty cool

it ends up being like 6 sustained fire dice of str 4 shots and 4 sustained fire dice of str 5 (for those who dont know sustained fire dice ahd a 1 in 6 chance of jamming  and could fire between 1 - 3 shots each, so thats 10 to 30 shots for the tempest) plus the 6 str 7 shots...

I guess I could try and scratchbuild a titan, but scorpions are so expensive...

eldar titans are VERY hard to make. too round. imperial ones are easier- lots of flat surfaces. im gonna make another one soon (yes that will take me to 5, another warlord) then i will have a 30,000p titan legion- YAY!

If you can find a copy of Armorcast's Inquisitor #18, they offer playtest rules for 3rd edition, fot their models.  My cpoy is somewhere in the mess I call my hobby room.
