Drawfag on DevA claims it to be some kind of "Psyker Warlord Titan". Never heard or read about it. Seems a little overpowered, ain`t it, excellen/tg/guys?

>DeviantArt
I think you answered your own question. There's rarely anything on there that isn't power fantasy fetish garbage that doesn't understand the system or lore and just think the aesthetic is neat.
>>
The inquisition is a secretive organization that can requisition the use of any imperial personell on a whim.

Giving them a titan goes against their theme and purpose.
>>
>>44542656
It may surprise you Anon, but 40k is all about power fantasy fetish garbage. That`s why we all love it.
And without any knowledge of the lore, THIS pic wouldn`t have been done.
Just saying.
>>
>>44542694
The Inquisition is not a secretive, but well known organisation, that operates secretly.
They have militant forces, just bound to them, like the Grey Knights and the sisters. Also a lot of inquisitional regiments. Why not Titans?

In the armagedon codex from the 3rd edition is a reference to psi-titans. It is classified about their number, but they are listed in the number of combatants in the third war for armagedon.

according to 40k wikia they are warlord class

Are you fucking retarded.

You don't need "balance" in real life, fiction, or really anything that isn't a game. In real life, if somebody could make a psyker warlord titan, they would, and if it's "too strong" then fucking good, that's the point of building weapons isn't it?
>>
>>44542877
This.
>>
>>44542618
It's not Canon, if that's what you're asking. Now Psykers using Warp fuckery to turn Titan sized? THATS Canon.
>>
>>44542877

>obvous wisdom is obvious

I guess the overpower-question is more in terms of:"Hey, this is my OC. He can destroy everything and can`t be hurt by something", you genious.
>>
>>44542618
Normally, that wouldn't even be possible...

Unless you simply wire a shitload of psykers to some machinery inside one and then have a lead OP psyker go and channel their power into a warp-ray of death that slices everything no matter what kind of plot armor they or it have and finishing it with a apocalyptic-sized Vortex of Doom.

>>44542776
THERE WERE IMPERIAL PSI-TITANS IN 3RD ED!?
>>
>>44543400

Hmmmm.... A very strong Alpha Psyker (or a small collective of them) powers could be strong enough. The hood around his head acts as the psi matrix of astartes librarians. It collects, transports, multiplies the energies to the aquilla on his shoulder and channels it into a big BOOOOM.

(Just looked at this thing on DA).

Plus: Think about all the options it would gain on a real tabletop game. It could simply shoot stuff, protect stuff, control stuff, heal stuff, shield stuff, move stuff.....

I also like the fact, that he attached flamers to his arms. Perfect anti daemon sheet right here.
>>
>>44543666
Pretty much like this.

That, or have the flamers replaced with Titan-sized Psicannons/Psilencers.

Anyway the chances of the inquisition finding a psyker so powerful and not crazy enough to let him bond as princeps with a mars pattern warlord titan the mechanicus or an affiliated titan legion would need to give the rights for are very, very, very slim.
Even if, I must admit, the twin headed eagle working as psy-beacon is neat.

This doesn't excuse the stupidity of it not having a power-force-fist nor being covered in gold incisions of the emperor.
>>
>>44542618
The only thing that comes close would be a Warlord equipped with a special "pod" containing a couple of astropaths that helped with communication and coordination (and basically giving a bonus on a couple of rolls).

That was a thing in Epic back when it was still called Space Marine years and years ago.
>>
>>44543118
I mean its just a giant robot,piloted by psykers
Its not really OP,and its seems like something that would be rare,but possible
>>
>>44542618
My question is, why the fuck does a warlord titan come equip with two flamer-type weapons?
>>
>>44542618
Can we just take a minute to note that that titan is using Titan-sized flamers?

Like, holy shit that's fantastic. Think of the burning.

>>44543930
>but possible
despite the possibility of psyker related thing on a titan, we have no reason to claim such a powerful focus is possible or a titan owned by the inquisition is for that matter.
It's a shitty concept based on a poorly understood fluff about the inquisition or the grey knights or the idea of smashing the strongest things you could think in a single frame.

>>
>>44544724
First of all these are not divisions directly under the wing of the inquisition, which doesn't even sport actual ground forces of a size relevant to justify a titan of their own, they still respond ultimately to the adeptus mechanicus that is only formally part of the imperium, it doesn't actually care nor would be willing to give such a valuable god-engine; secondly, the telepathica, as the name suggests, is not actually about huge psycannons, but a reference to >>44543882
thirdly there's nothing shameful about being proven ignorant or wrong, I'm actually quite happy to have learnt about these orders on top of the battle ones, the mandati specifically.

>>44545151
You didn`t read the links at all, did you?
Anyway, I`ll quote it for you, to spare you from the need of some research:
" There is even a specialist class of Imperial combat walker based on the Warlord design, the rare Psi-Titans, where psychic weaponry is substituted for conventional Titan weapons for use against daemonic entities."
This said, and also considering, that the psi titans of the Divisio Telepathica are referred to as the "Dreaded Psi Titans" should be a hint, that these god engines might not just be giant vox transmitters.
Your statement that these divisions are not directly under the wing of the in quisition is not very important, because an Inquisitor can claim or use whatever he demands, though he surely will choose his words wisely when he orders the mechs or the marines. But he can. And the Inquisition has militant forces and arms. So in my mind, something of that scale could be pretty usefull for people that fight chaos. Maybe the mechs even offerd this monster to the inquisitiion becuase they wanted something from them, use your imagination.

At least you claimed that there`s nothing wrong with proven wrong and you`re happy to learn, so I`m happy to have teached you something more, Anon.

Please, PLEASE do some research before you make claims. That spares you from blaming other people to not understand something, that you have proven yourself to have bo clue of and even are not willing to check it when someone points on it by sending you a link to a reasonable, reliable and official explanation.

See you.
>>
Psy-Titans exist.
But I seriously doubt that the princeps is a psyker. They are already rare, finding one that is also a powerful and trained psyker is probably impossible. Even then, they would have to interact with the Warlords machine spirit and the personalities and thoughts of previous Princeps. One small mistake while purging Daemons and you suddenly have either a Daemon possessed Warlord Titan slaughtering Imperial forces or going on a rampage because it thinks it's somewhere else.
So it's probably all kinds of psyker and Warp protected, with a special chamber that houses strong psykers that can control some psychic weaponry.

Yes, psi Titans definitely are a thing. Elder warlock Titans are the most obvious example but the Imperium also has some.

There are a handful of really OP Titans in canon, one being the psi Titans which have very little information about them. They are not really that OP though when you consider the Warp Runners Titan legion. They specialize in teleportation assaults.

"Then the warp runnersWarlord teleported directly into the pulsating, warm and wet vulva of a hierophant. The titanic creature noticed the large object in it`s body capacity and engaged its inner defense, but then refused, as it felt how well the imperial god engine filled its pussy and actually enjoyed the movement of the titan. The warlord started to shoot, and shoot, and shoot, and shoot, and shoot, and the hierophant screamed out of joy at every devastating blow it felt inside of it. Finally, when the Warprunner was close to make its way through the tyranid creature, the monstrous xeno witnessed the first interspecies-titan-orgasm, causing it to exterminate the continent where this took place when it exploded in an acid squirting explosion...."

>reasonable, reliable and official explanation.
It's ironic you use these words when, so far, the only things you are basing this on are a subjective interpretation of a "hint" that a fucking warlord titan to be dreadful must have psychic weaponry on top of the tactical advantages of a choir of telepaths providing superior coordination and readings on the enemies', both titanic and ground forces, plans to attack the titan to counter them accordingly which would already make them a formidable and dreaded foe; and a quote from an unofficial wiki notoriously known to be less reliable than the lexicanum because of its lack of written sources to their info enabling the inclusion of headcanon, that is in fact not present on the lexicanum.

Furthermore, the inquisition's ability to give orders to other forces doesn't mean said forces will bring the inquisition's colours and heraldry and be a direct arm of the inquisitor; the armed forces of the inquisition are the militant ordos, with the 3 major ones, malleus (grey knights), xenos (deathwatch) and hereticus (sisters), lacking the size, reasons and canon examples of dedicated titans since they mostly cover the roles of specialized strike forces and internal police of the imperium.

Could you please remove your head from your ass for a thread, question things and research actual facts when trying to support your shitty deviantart OC? Or does the person "that has no clue and is not willing to check things" need to do the quick research for you?
Here, 2 minutes of research lead to metal components produced for epic to make a psi-titan, confuting my previous stance on the psi-titans, proving that on top of the dome containing choirs of psykers to coordinate and communicate they could in fact be used or be accompained by more choirs to power big warp cannons, that may be related to the type of weapon mounted on the black ships [can't prove this last bit for absence of a source to check].

Well, if the 3rd edition Codex:Armageddon isn`t official, reliable and official enough for you, then i suppose you to name some more reliable, reasonable and official sources, because, wahat`s written on that Phantasy-sites is based on that

Still canon, that inquisitors can claim everything they want if they demand it. Diagnose: Lack of imagination and retarded phantasy.

You`re right. He should instead just talk bullshit without any reasonable and founded argument, right? Because: Who needs truth when you can just troll and talk stupid bullshit without questioning, right?

Exactly. you have no source, no link, nothing at all. That makes it nothing but a claim. And you know what? You can claim anything, but that doesn`t make it an valuable argument. That`s (on a sidenote) the exact accusation, that you are making all the time to everybody else, but I guess that`s pretty logical in your twisted kind of reality.

>tell me the page for that quote, because I've got the book, but I don't see it.

Maybe you should read a little better. Or do you really ask me to post some links to copyright protected material from GW here? Because: Maybe my book is in another language than yours and the pages are not the same.

>is it completely impossible? no.
is it likely? no.

Cool. Explaining it yourself. Possible? Yes. Likely? No. So: It can happen. Question: Why argue about it then at all? Oh, because you don`t want it to happen, right? And that`s why it can`t happen. Cool, anon. Logic: 10/10

The idea of the cannon being similar to the ships is in no way a point of argument in this discussion, it was an addition that maybe could have been talked about since it was accompained with no source, but along the related pics of the model, generating curiosity over the veridicity
I'm not claiming much, in truth, I, so far, have used the sources you have proposed to question the conclusion you have reached that this concept is a perfectly fine thing for the limits of the setting
Which we have reached the conclusion that the divisio telephatica may have warlords with psychic powers powered weaponry
What is lacking is a canon example of inquisitors being able to have a titan for their forces

You only need to tell me the page, or the section of the book, or wether it being a quote from an actual book was an assumption of yours

Anything is possible, put the right circumstances, canon examples give the actual possibilities for something to happen when we have so limited informations to predict things though, improbability for a thing to happen is a factor to include in every creative process.
Want to use this thing for your headcanon? fine, it has been discussed and has been found out that psychic titans are a possibility but that titans in an actual force of the inquisition see no precedence, meaning that it is not canon (as in non-present in the canon fluff) and for it to be possible would require mars letting go of one of their higly valued, secretly kept, god-machines with psychic tech to go in the hands of the inquisition, which is a higly improbable chance given the lack of cases about it and the fairly indipendence and only formal obiedience to the orders of the imperium
treat it as such: not canon and higly improbable thing for the inquisition to have

You didn't provide the source, you provided a quote that has no attached source; burden of proof is on you to hand a way to prove that the quote is actually from the source you're claiming it's from
