Editing Adeptus Titanicus/Tactics (section)

==Battleline Maniples==

===Axiom Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 1 Warlord, 1 Reaver, 1 Warhound
*'''Optional:''' 1 Reaver, 1 Warhound
**'''Might of the Omnissiah:''' If a Titan in the maniple fails its command check, the others may still make command checks.

===Myrmidon Heavy Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 2 Warlords, 1 Reaver
*'''Optional:''' 1 Warlord, 1 Reaver
**'''Overwhelming Firepower:''' When issuing First Fire or Split Fire orders, the Command check is always passed on a 2+. ''Kinda meh, but the cheapest way to expand from the Grand Master starter set and get into matched play. <- Not sure who wrote this, but there's nothing 'meh' about getting to fire 2x a turn with your Warlords. <- The point is that you can do this without maniple easily, as Warlords command value is 3+ by default'' ''<- Minor counterpoint is that the bonus is somewhat helpful on the Reaver(s) in the maniple with their 4+ command value, and if one was playing a legio like Gryphonicus/Solaria/Fortidus where you replace a heavier titan, it could extend the benefit further.''

===Corsair Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 3 Reavers
*'''Optional:''' 2 Reavers
**'''Fighting Withdrawal:''' Titans can move outside their front arc at full speed but may not use boosted speed outside of their front arc.

===Dominus Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 1 Warlord, 2 Reavers, 1 Questoris or Cerastus Knight banner.
*'''Optional:''' 2 Warhounds, 1 Knight banner.
**'''Auspex bafflers:''' A Titan in this maniple that is within 6 inch of a Knight banner from same maniple gets a -1 modifier on attacks made against it from more than 2 inches away (Knight and Titan must both be visible to the attacker).
**Knights in this maniple do not get modifiers to roll from cover, due to the auspex bafflers.
**'''Noble Sacrifice:''' ("Look out Sir") When a Titan in this maniple takes a hit from ranged attack, it can transfer that hit to any Knight banner from same maniple that is within 6 inches. At least 1 of the knights must be visible to the attacker. The Knights then suffer the damage from the hit. If the attack uses a blast marker, centre the marker on the Knight. Firestorm weapons hits may NOT be passed on by this manner.
**(My opinion, if you play as Legio Solaria you can replace the 2 reavers with 2 warhounds) or use solaria rules for a homebrew legio or a "counts as" legio. Just make sure your opponent understands that is what you are doing, before starting the game).

===Fortis Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 1 Warlord, 2 Reavers.
*'''Optional:''' 1 Warlord, 1 Reaver.
**'''Titanic Fortress:''' 2 Titans in base contact with each other, and as long as they didn't move in the Movement Phase, they ignore Armor roll modifiers resulting from Structural Damage or being attacked in the flank or rear. Also, Titans in this Maniple can merge their void shields!

===Janissary Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 1 Reaver, 2 Warhounds
*'''Optional:''' 1 Reaver, 1 Warhound
**'''Close Support:''' Janissary Battleline maniples learn to coordinate their actions with Household Support units, and can move to support them when needed. If a titan of this maniple activates during the Movement phase, choose a Knight banner within 6in of the activating titan. Once the Titan has finished it's movement, the chosen Knight Banner may now make it's activation.

===Regia Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 2 Warlords, 1 Warhound
*'''Optional:''' 2 Warhounds
**'''Royal Court:''' The two warlord titans play house.  While within 12" of each other, when one passes an order, the other may automatically gain the same order. The Warhounds are their children and may merge void shields with their parents while within 3" instead of only in base contact.

===Arcus Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 2 Warhounds, 1 Nemesis Warbringer
*'''Optional:''' 2 Warhounds
**'''Coordinate Relay:''' The Nemesis Warbringer may ignore LoS when firing at a target if one of the Warhounds in the maniple has LoS. Firing at a target in this matter confers a -2 penalty to hit. In addition, the Nemesis' blast weapons scatter D6" instead of D10" when the target is in LoS from a Warhound in this maniple.

===Ruptura Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 2 Nemesis Warbringer, 1 Reaver
*'''Optional:''' 2 Reavers
**'''Artillery Bastion:''' Each round, one Reaver in the maniple may move at boosted speed without pushing its reactor. In addition, if a Nemesis Warbringer in the maniple makes an engine kill, all Reavers in the maniple may immediately move as though they are in the movement phase.

===Mandatum Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 2 Warhounds, 1 Warlord
*'''Optional:''' 2 Warhounds
**'''Pack Master:''' As long as the Warlord lives, all Warhounds get +2 to all command checks and +1 to hit on enemy units within 12" of the Warlord.

===Perpetua Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 1 Warlords, 2 Reavers
*'''Optional:''' 2 Reavers
**'''Stand Firm:''' Emergency Repair Orders always pass on a 2+ and if a Titan didn't move (for any reason) then they roll an extra repair die in the repair phase.

===Extergimus Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 3 Warlords
*'''Optional:''' 1 Warlord, 1 Nemesis Warbringer 
**'''Scorched Earth:''' Each time you make a ranged attack, you may choose to add +2 Strength to the attack before rolling to hit. Each time you do this your reactor will increase by 1, or 2 if that attack has 5 or more dice. This ability is amazing later game on a paired Gatling blasters. S5 base, + 2S for Scorched Earth, + any location modifiers, + flank or rear.

===Precept Battleline Maniple===
*'''Minimum:''' 1 Warlord, 1 Nemesis Warbringer, 1 Warhound
*'''Optional:''' 1 Reaver, 1 Warhound
**'''Flexible Tactics:''' At the start of each Strategy phase before any orders are issued, the player controlling the maniple may issue a single Order for all the Titans in it. If the player is running more than one Precept maniple, then they get to choose a different order for each maniple. Until the end of the round, Titans in the maniple can be issued the selected Order on a 2+ roll irrespective of any positive or negative modifiers, and any other order must make a Command check as normal.
