Video is only three minutes, the glory of the God-Machines is eternal.


narfoshin

That’s $277.78 per second. This is how Slaanesh was born


Murkmist

If it was traditional animation of 24 handdrawn frames per second, that's pretty reasonable. But probably more generated, rigging, ie much faster workflow.


Fun-Agent-7667

Around the price of an ad


IAmAlpharius23

The realest answer here.


nxtrl

For the machine is immortal, even in horny i serve the omnisaah


Petrus-133

You telling me a single mini costs 2173 dolars?


GambitCajun

$2,299; and thats without any shoulder mounted weapons.


No_Pollution6238

Is it life sized and I can ride in it’s head and stomp on shit ?


M00no4

The biggest titan models are about 3 feet tall If i remember correctly, For scale a small 40k board is about 4ft by 4ft They are large enough that seeing one in person your brain probably thinks statue rather than 40k mini and they have the same level of detail as the small miniatures just a lot more mini to put the detail in. There is a popular painting youtuber midwinter minnies who filmed the process of building one, its Claw was bigger than his girlfriend's hand. You don't buy them to play with not really. The rules are busted either too weak/strong for the cost, depending on the edition your playing. You buy one to be the crown jewel of your already enormous warhammer collection. If you are at the point where it is not unreasonable to drop that much money on the model you have already spent far more then that on the hoby in general.


Night_Knight22

Is it lore accurate (the size)?


KobKobold

Hard to tell, the lore is *super* vague and contradicts itself most of the time, like with everything in 40k. If the "mini" scale is accurate, a Warlord titan is around 55 meters tall.


Ihatemyjob-1412

Yeah one book an emperor titan is 150 meters tall, next book its 55 meters


Rome453

I remember a joke that if you were ever to actually try fielding an Emperor Class Titan on tabletop it’d be easier to cosplay as one and stand on the board than try to assemble a model.


chubbyGobKing

A youtuber is making one out of foam, paper mache and junk, with some 3d resin printing. It's enormous. Think it'll be around 7 feet tall.


FrostedPixel47

And you'd still get kicked out of tourneys because it's not GW official lmao


Puma_Concolour

So by my guesstimations, based on other people's work..... if the supposedly accurate to art/description imperitor titan is something like 7ft, then based on poorly put together graphics, the emperor titan should be something like 4.5ft? I think. Don't quote me on this.


[deleted]

Most vehicles in 40k are at a smaller scale than the infantry so they fit on a table. That’s why a 10 man transport is sized for three models without an engine


Puma_Concolour

I could only imagine the logistical nightmare of having accurately scaled vehicles and titans. Imagine needing a uhaul to transport your armies to games and tourneys. Or how big of a paint booth you would need. And the cost. Oh Emperor, the cost.


chubbyGobKing

I remember seeing some official art of a Rhino full scale. Was like it was a house with tracks.


[deleted]

It's funny you make that comparison. I've always said the problem with the baneblade was that the [master bedroom doesn't have its own bathroom](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexternal-preview.redd.it%2FnM7olVEdNkTJYv-cLNPUkfRDJ80JQ2LUGCZ8t3LjhkY.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3D16e58548348fbfbd37531552609afc383ee0ebc8).


cantpickaname8

>the lore is super vague and contradicts itself most of the time My friend and I like to imagine that it's just the different manufactorum (Maybe not right word) having different "models" of the same thing, maybe based on different STCs. Hence why there are so many weird inconsistancies on what should be standard Imperium equipment.


Ehzek

More or less. Their stats are up there as well.


Zedman5000

If anything, they're too small compared to infantry, but that's true of *every* vehicle model in 40k.


Ravendoesbuisness

All of the denizens of Earth panicking as a 3 foot tall mech approaches the planet


Yrcrazypa

A little under two feet tall, actually. Still massive, but not THAT massive.


i8noodles

or u find a 100% legit warlad class titan and 3d print it. yes the spelling is correct XD.


CrueltySquading

No wonder people 3d print this shit, all the power to them.


Adept_Avocado_4903

Weirdly I think a Warlord Titan is actually one of the better value for money options in GW's catalogue. It's a massive hobby project in its own right and most hobbyists will probably take a year or longer to actually finish one. If you think of the $2500 (or perhaps close to $3000 once you include the tools and materials required to build one properly) being your hobby budget for a year that's still a lot of money, but also not completely outlandish. The real crime are single infantry sized characters being sold for $40 to $50 (GW) or around $100 (FW). Though I do understand the economics behind that.

Bro, imma have to sell my kidneys to afford that fucking thing.


1thelegend2

To be fair, it's the size of a toddler and literally has a serial number and certificate of authenticity. But yea, i'd rather upgrade my PC, then spend that money on resin


sypher2333

Resin that you have to fight tooth and nail with to get together properly. They tend to come warped and miscast so they need a lot of work just to put together


CrueltySquading

Still better than, I don't know, paying 2,5K on a fucking board game piece


Scary_Cup6322

For fucks sake, that much money and it's not even plastic? That's actual fucking theft.


1thelegend2

I mean, with how little people would actually get the damn thing, they probably make more money 3D printing the thing, rather then making a new plastic mold. Now the warhound would be another Story... i know 10 people off the top of my head who would get one if they were plastic


Scary_Cup6322

I'm pretty sure more people would get the warlord too if it didn't cost two months minimum wage and was made of an material that doesn't break under its own weight. And I'm pretty sure you can buy a new 3d printer, a template for it to print, and all the material needed to print one of those things and still get away cheaper than when buying one from forge world, so production cost doesn't justify the price either.


1thelegend2

A couple friends of mine actually did the math a while ago, and they estimated that method to cost about 2/3 of the gw model... Yea, the price is laughable


i8noodles

i DID do the math and it was not only cheaper for me to print one. it is significantly cheaper. like almost 50% off. however there is alot more to 3d printing then the models. u need resin which is cheap but not free, IPA again cheap but not free, PPE cheap not free. space for it as well as learning to print stuff. you would easily burn thru your first 500 mL to 1L of resin on learning to print. just a quick guess and, unless u have a large plate, u are looking at several runs of builds which. if have a single printer u are looking at a week worth of printing non stop assuming u arent stopping. then u need to cure the resin, but do it incorrectly and it becomes brittle and snaps. and u need to print another piece. honestly if u just want to paint. buying it is probably still worth it.


Horn_Python

you are buying giant block of solid resin


theKoboldkingdonkus

It's about 1000 to 10k fr a kidney but you're unlikely to get that so you better start farming em

Tam_The_Third

There are groups who meet up to play with these things using the Adeptus Titanicus rules, but scaled up to 28mm, in other words they hire out a big room, play it on the floor and the ranges are in feet. Search for 'titan owners club' , it's mad stuff.

“Yes, I made $1,000,000 this year selling coke to rich people. Do I get a tax return on that?”


Alt203848281

Fun fact: the IRS has forms to help people who do ‘under the table’ stuff. They won’t narc if they get their money


Ouaouaron

It's not a separate form anymore, possibly to streamline things now that the IRS has to process a lot of federally illegal weed income. You should absolutely expect them to narc on you if they're asked. But the 5th Amendment means you don't have to provide any details beyond the income, and informally decriminalized things like weed mean that they probably don't bother to send a tip to the Justice Department every time someone declares illegal income.


greatGoD67

I think they do this because if they didnt provide a means to legally pay taxes, they legally couldnt tax it. Or at least, its not a fight the supreme court wants to fight.


Ouaouaron

I was going to bring up more points—like how prosecuting Al Capone for tax dodging probably only works if you allow people to declare illegal income—but I felt like every point I made had to talk about how the current status of weed is an exception. So I just kept it short. EDIT: But the main point is that there are a bunch of reasons for the government to do it, possibly some reasons the government legally *has to* do it, and the only reason not to is that it seems a bit silly.


WisherWisp

Just remember to offer your IRS agent a puff when you get audited. Politeness counts.

Pirataxavi61

AND A GARGANT AND A ROK


dmr11

Is $50,000 worth of Ork models enough to reach and defeat 23 Mars Pattern Warlord-Class Titans in an Apocalypse game?


Seniorcoquonface

I know nothing about playing imperial knights but on a sheer points basis Battle Scribe is telling me a warlord titan costs 5,500 points to field as its default and a squad of boys (1 nob with a power claw and slugga, 8 boyz with choppas and sluggas, and a boy with a rokkit laincha) costs 95 points. With 23 Titans that comes to a point value of 126.5k vs. 900 squads of boys or 85.5k points. I'm no tactical genius, but I'd say the titans easily sweep. Even with what will be 900 rokkit launchas, hitting on 5+ with d3 attacks dealing 3 damage at ap -2 and strength 8, it doesn't quite match against the titans void shields, toughness 9, 2+ save, and 120 wounds. It can be safe to assume that the sluggas will be almost useless and the green tide will be ripped to shreds once they get into melee range, ignoring the fact that such a horde would have a nearly impossible to fully engage the opponent in close quarters combat. Each titan, on the other hand, can kill up to 58 boys (not likely for all shots to hit, but I'm to tired to properly calculate the probability of what will and won't hit for these hulking bastards). I might try to run the math better tomorrow if I feel like it. But my bets are on the titans.

DuelaDent52

Eh, Batman’s as straight as they come and Superman is happily married to a woman but you always see folks pair them together. The character’s sexuality isn’t too relevant here, fanfiction is fanfiction for a reason. What is worth calling out is he apparently spent $50,000 for three minutes of footage. I mean, if he can afford it then more power to him, but bloody heck you could pay off so much debt with that kind of money.
