Imperium of Man Size Comparison - Warhammer 40K

[@Alastair_]

One bit of lore I love is the Tau didn't even believe Titans were real XD

[@woodlefoof2]

Lol they didn’t think it was real because they considered it to be a silly waste of resources. They didn’t know the emperor of man’s name was moto moto, a name so nice you say it twice

their reaction when they found out their enemy were stupid enough to actually think, build and operate titan were the best...

[@GreySectoid]

@@rji1856 How did they react?

[@rji1856]

first they were dumbfounded. then they knew they had to build their own kind of stupid useless machine to counter it. and finally, they had a titan of their own, that they didn't want, didn't like, but still needed

I had to look that one up in the Warhammer wiki. It's apparently was a walking mobile techno-nomad platorm that slowly looped around the equator of Terra.

[@coriusfarinprimarchofthese7007]

This video is of questionable accuracy. The big one that stuck out to me is you placing the Deathstrike Missile Launcher (which is a Chimera chassis) as at the same height as a Mastodon (the largest ground vehicle in the Space Marine arsenal). There are also other inconsistencies, such as the mislabeling of the Primaris Invictor Tactical Warsuit, or listing the Predator (Rhino chassis) as larger than a Land Raider. Minor details, but ones that greatly detract from the veracity of the video.

[@blacksabbath5300]

I think the glaive and falcion tanks are also misplaced, because the falcion uses 2 volcano canons while the bane blade has one, plus it’s space marine so I’m relatively certain it is larger than the bane blade.

[@hybrid9mm]

He got the titans wrong to. To quote “The Emperor Titan is the largest type of Imperial Titan, consisting of two classes: the Imperator and Warmonger.” The size is also wrong although lore is also inconsistent here, but with cathedral spires they are on average 55 meters tall (scaled off of the models), the Dies Irae was without spires and was 43m (as stated) respectively. The Castigator was the original and possibly the largest (as it said) of all but it’s size was never stated.

[@blacksabbath5300]

@@hybrid9mm yes like you said lore inconsistencies and technically imperators are (unless we are to believe the mystery shrouded accounts of the unnamed even larger imperators) the biggest in the setting. Originals kinda… well time and idiocy is a bitch.

[@hybrid9mm]

@@blacksabbath5300 I go by this “According to the scale diagram from the Imperator's Apocalypse datasheet, it stands approximately 39" tall on tabletop, equivalent to 55.5 meters (166ft) in real life” they are the rules after all. But yes the books are all over the place and there is a lot of bs and hyping up etc.

[@blacksabbath5300]

@@hybrid9mm ok but actually, no. Sorry but they have to be bigger than that. Most things aren’t 100% scaled like that for fucks sake the size of astartes using image scaling and actual basic math and logic shows they should be shooting calibers way above .75 as a standard. GW just thought it sounded cool. But seriously, given the size of a volcano canon which we know better from more solidified numbers on other things like the shadow sword they’re mounted on that a warlord titan would be taller than 166. And imperators are much bigger. Also they’re roughly the same height as that one absurd tank with a canon (which is small in comparison to the rest of the vehicle) that supposedly fits four battle tanks in the barrel. I’m not trying to be an ass and argue just for the sake of it, I’m just saying warhammer is on a ridiculous scale intentionally and asking to please let the god engines be a little more fun. Please. Pwetty pwease from a maid marine. Edit: WAIT I mixed up some numbers and names pardon the warlord isn’t quite that big but a imperator should be a tad larger.

[@beskararmor7966]

Member thinking when I was younger Mechwarrior mechs were the sizes of the warlords and then realized one day how small they were.

[@OverlordIntecris]

As far as I know, the Deredeo and Contemptor Dreadnoughts are the same size if you dont count the missile rack on the Deredeo (though the Deredeo uses the exact same leg system from the Leviathan) meaning it shouldnt be placed that far below the Contemptor

The Emperor Titan only consists of two classes: the Imperator and Warmonger, there is no emperor class it’s the chassis designation. The size of these on average is only 55.5m (scaled from 39" tall on tabletop model), without spires (Dies Irae) they are only 43m which would be the standard height of the chassis before spires etc. The Castigator was the 1st and apparently the largest although this was only stated as being such no actual measurement was given.

Rare emperor is a cringy modification of an Imperial knight, the one you might think of is a castigator titan that was controlled by AI. Leviathan tanky-thing is also a modification of a couple of baneblades and can be easily measured by baneblade chassis and turret as 17.1 meter.

[@krimisanidiot]

people have made models of the command leviathans using Baneblade chassis, but they are meant to be a lot bigger than that.

[@tau-5794]

It was meant more as a visualization of an Imperator on the higher end of size, since 100+ meter titans are fairly common in older stories.

[@DongLick]

@@tau-5794 aren't there enough imperator titan arts or the modification of a 10m knight is a better way to visualize 100m titan than any default art?

[@tau-5794]

@@DongLick A modified knight model is good as a representation on the tabletop because it has (roughly) similar proportions and is roughly in scale with the titanicus boardgame which uses smaller versions of titan models. In the lore a "rare imperator" would look exactly the same as a 60 meter imperator, though ig the video maker just wanted some visual distinction.

The Imperium may care about size alot for their ground vehicles and mechs however unfortunately for them even these have yet to overcome the weight and factoring capability issues to reach ridiculous anime mecha sizes which I seen from the Macross Cannon Soldier mode. They thing is over 5km on height. About the size of a Imperium Battleship. Yeah that's some massive amounts of engineering to even attempt. Though I think they should do themselves a favor look into better resourceful big tanks that can be massed produced with better weapons systems and point defenses like the Bolo Mk.33 tank from the Bolo series. Or else I guess they are going either need more Dark Age of Technology designs or try to become a full Tier 1: Class nation according to the Forerunner's technological advancement scale to do the other option.
