The knights came from Epic Titan Legions. Released in the year that the sprues have on them. It was a stand-alone/expansion for Space Marine 2nd Edition. It was aimed around the same scale of warfare as Adeptus Titanicus but had none of the campaign game in it. Loved the Imperator titian with enough room in each leg for a regiment of Guard.
@MasterShake90004 жыл бұрын
These were introduced with Titan Legions, the best version of Epic ever! The ridges were to use when determining if a shot from the front hit their shielding since it wasn’t a full 360 protection. IIRC, Epic 40k didn’t use them so you may have seen examples from that era, or from simply not using those bases as they’re more a gaming aid than a required base.

Epic is definitely my jam. If you do end up playing, I recommend either 2nd edition/Titan Legions, or Epic: Armageddon. Epic 40,000 isn't a bad ruleset, per se, but I don't feel fits the uniqueness of the 40k factions. Go with 2nd ed. for capturing the grandeur of massed warfare in the 41st millennium, and Armageddon if you prefer a bit more of a streamlined experience that still makes the factions feel like themselves.
