Editing Emperor Battle Titan (section)

==Known Emperor Titans==
[[File:Binary_Succession_Titan.jpg|center|thumb|900px|Well hello there. Do you have time to talk about our lord and saviour, the [[Omnissiah]]?]]
Because of their awe-inspiring [[Awesome|awesomeness]] and absolute carnage they reap on the battlefield, a number of Emperor Titans have walked countless worlds and fell on countless others in Black Library books. A few of them are listed here. As you can see below, it should be noted that if an Imperator Titan is in a book and it's Imperial, [[Fail|it's going to die.]]

*'''Dominatus:''' The Dominatus was an Imperator-class Titan from an unknown Titan Legion that fell in battle, fighting against the Forces of Chaos during the failed defence of Lorn V. Laying broken and forgotten for millennia, the lost Titan was rediscovered by the Imperium, and so, the Cadian 412th Imperial Guard Regiment, under the command of [[General Sturnn]] was dispatched to retrieve it. With the aid of the [[Eldar]] [[Farseer]] [[Taldeer]] of [[Craftworld]] [[Ulthwé]] and her warhost, who was on Lorn V for her own reasons, General Sturnn's regiment fought their way through both the Chaos Lord Crull's Blood Legion of Khorne Chaos Warband and the Warboss Gorgutz 'Ead 'Unter's Orks, reaching the fallen Titan before their enemies. Powering up the slumbering god-engine, the Imperial forces were forced to fight the ancient menace, known as the [[Necron|Necrons,]] which had begun to emerge from beneath Lorn V's surface. Despite the Farseer's betrayal, Taldeer convinced General Sturnn to aid them against this new threat, and so, they made use of the Dominatus' powerful weapons into the Necrons' advancing Monoliths, thus defeating the Necron forces. But in the process, the ancient Titan's core was ruptured in the process, causing it to explode spectacularly, killing General Sturnn and the majority of the Cadian 412th. The Eldar had managed to flee back into the [[Webway]] just before it exploded. Those few survivors of the decimated regiment quickly spread word off-world of the treachery of the Eldar Farseer, and to the present day, their regimental banner bears a black ribbon to mark their failure to recover the ancient Imperator Titan. To this day, Sturnn's death has been met with rejection and [[butthurt]] by /tg/ as he was too cool a guy to be killed off.
*'''Exemplis:''' The Exemplis was the last remaining Imperator Titan of the Legio Ignatum, worshiped by the Adeptus Mechanicus as an avatar of the Omnissiah. The Exemplis saw its last action on the world of Tanakreg against a large [[Word Bearers]] Traitor Legion warhost of the Dark Apostle Jarulek. Despite the horrendous casualties it inflicted upon the heretics, the Chaos Space Marines managed to board and destroy the Exemplis after attacking its more vulnerable components. 
*'''Mettalum Olympus:''' The Mettalum Olympus was a notable Imperator Titan and an absolute [[Awesome|BOSS]] of a Emperor Titan; commanded by Princeps Goethe, it managed to almost single-handedly hold off a Tyranid invasion on the ash-choked plains of Horst Prime. Surrounded by an entire horde of [[Hierophant]] Bio-Titans, instead of dying like a bitch, the ancient Titan allowed the Tyranids to breach its plasma reactor when the Hierophants were close enough. [[Rape|The resultant explosion vapourised everything within a kilometre, leaving a crater that is still visible from orbit.]]
*'''Praeco Deictus:''' An Imperator Titan of the Legio Crucius, which had survived the grim days of the [[Horus Heresy]] and had won countless victories on thousands of worlds for the Imperium. The Praeco Deictus was destroyed, along with other Titans of the Legio Crucius, defending the Hive World of Kado from the Forces of Chaos. During the fighting, a hundred Slaanesh [[Daemon Knights#Hell-Knight|Hell-Knights]] infiltrated the main Hive City and emerged to attack the Imperator Titan [[Anal circumference|from its vulnerable rear,]] turning it into a pile of molten slag. You wish we were joking, but suffice to say, Praeco Deictus suffered the most [[Fail|embarrassing defeat of any Emperor Titans on the list.]] Seriously it is one thing to lose against those flamingo walkers, but to lose against them in a seriously suggestive sexual position is just a [[Derp|whole new low.]] Don't believe us? Just imagine a bunch of [[/d/|giant walking dildos]] [[NSFW|penetrating the rear end of another giant humanoid walker]] [[FATAL|until it climaxes and explodes]]...
*'''Stormherald:''' An Imperator Titan of the Legio Invigilata, this titan was (and that was is rather significant) active during the Battle for [[Grimaldus|Hive Helsreach]] during the Third War for Armageddon. Piloted by Princeps 'Crone of Invigilata' Zarha, this titan is essentially only important in two parts in the book in which it is prominently featured ([[Aaron Dembski-Bowden|Helsreach]]). The first is where it is booby-trapped by a bunch of Orks, the booby-trap in question being several Hive Spires filled to the brim with explosives detonating and falling on said Titan. This essentially causes The Crone to become half-subsumed into Stormherald's Machine-Spirit, only being saved by the Black Templars' Reclusiarch (Grimaldus) demanding her not to fall. [[Derp|And so she didn't]]. The titan then disappears from the book for 150 pages or so, until the Mega Gargant ''Godbreaker'' turns up in Helsreach and proceeds to wipe Armageddon's dusty wastelands with a pair of Invigilata's Warhound Titans. The Crone is none too happy about this, and (after being ordered to by Grimaldus and the guardsman in charge of Helsreach's defence) proceeds to engage in a manly and testosterone-fuelled duel to the death with Godbreaker... Which consists of the two machines standing at opposite ends of the kilometres-long Hel's Highway and shooting at each other. Stormherald's fate is sealed when a Moderati (later executed by his comrade) fires its plasma annihilator too early and misses, allowing Godbreaker to wail on Stormherald until the latter finally crashes to the ground like a fuckhuge walking cathedral would be expected to. Later, after the siege of Helsreach reaches a stalemate following the destruction of Godbreaker by [[awesome|the Ordinatus Armageddon]], Grimaldus flies over the wreckage of Stormherald in a Thunderhawk and displays [[what|ACTUAL HUMAN FEELINGS]] in that he's regretful that the titan's corpse rests in enemy-held territory, and nothing can be done to retrieve the god-machine's carcass. And as far as anyone knows, the body of the Titan (and the crone) are still there.
*'''Casus Belli:''' First introduced in the Gav Thorpe novel "Imperator: Wrath of the Omnissiah". Attached to the Legio Metalica, Casus was deployed against heretek defenders on the world of Necomedua (not Necromunda) which had gone rouge (not rogue) at some point following the Great Rift, and basically single-handedly face-fucked entire legions of traitor land forces, vehicles (including a Baneblade, which is STEPPED ON), an entire city wall, and even a few Titans. This was all a ruse, though, as the traitors planned not to destroy it or withstand the Imperium but capture the Titan itself. Their attempt, unsurprisingly, failed when one of the Magi aboard did some pretty bad-ass stuff (and thought outside the box for once) and was backed up by a random lower-deck girl with what basically amounts to a futuristic monkey wrench. Also the most hilariously/depressingly named as it represents the fact that the only thing besides religion (read: quintillions of peoples' worth of passive psychic power over ten thousand years making it real) holding the Imperium together is war.
