1d4chan>Cavgunner: Deleted reference to the RMS Titanic, which is rather out of context and TOTALLY out of place here. Also deleted the reference to End of War. Was it a game? A story? Who knows. It doesn't seem to have any other readily available references anywhere else on the Internet but here, so bye-bye. Finally, shortened the stub for 40K Titans since there is already a full article for that.

	The term 'titan' is used in many games to refer to something huge and impressive. It's always a metaphor for the godlike monsters of Greek Mythology ~~that preceded the god-type gods of Zeus et al. The adjective "titanic" is synonymous with "fuckhuge," "Jesus that's big" and "did you say iceberg?"~~		The term 'titan' is used in many games to refer to something huge and impressive. It's almost always a metaphor for the godlike monsters of Greek Mythology.

	~~== British Ships ==~~
	The [[Wikipedia:RMS Titanic\|RMS Titanic]] was a luxury ocean liner that was the largest vessel of her time. A medium-passage ticket cost about as much as a normal person's wages for six months. It was called "unsinkable," and "too big to fail," much like Enron, the Vietnam War, Communism, and the Star Wars Imperial space stations "Death Star", "Death Star Mk II" and Star-killer base (Death Star Mk.III).

	~~== End of War ==~~
	~~[[Image:Titaneow.jpg\|right\|thumb\|Hitler was, and is, a tough act to follow.]]~~
	In [[End of War]], Titans are walking armadas of recycled "Super Heavy Dreadnought Battleships" invented by Hitler in 1946. They also appear in later series as walking HQ's with plasma rays and railcannons to fuck everything until its bleeding and crying

	In [[Warhammer 40,000]], Titans are gigantic warmachines. They come in Big, Bigger, Bigger than the Last One, Damn that's One Big Mecha, and XBAWKS HUEG (fucking massive).		In [[Warhammer 40,000]], Titans are gigantic warmachines. They come in Big, Bigger, Bigger than the Last One, Damn that's One Big Mecha, and XBAWKS HUEG (fucking massive).

	They also tend to fuck up your shit~~. By at least times 5 (or ten).~~		They also tend to fuck up your shit.

	'''To elaborate:''' [[Titans 40k\|Titans]] are the biggest freaking land machines most races have at their disposal in the [[Grimdark\|GRIM DARKNESS]] OF THE [[Warhammer 40k\|41ST MILLENNIUM]]. Other than several types of kilometer to multi-kilometer long landships, but those don't usually leave their planet of origin.

	How big are they? Actually, that varies depending on the depiction. For the most part, think of a giant mecha that is 15-80 meters tall. Your typical troopers on the tabletop are half as tall as your finger is long -- a Titan miniature requires both of your hands to lift. Some Titan minis are bigger than your head, which makes the name "miniature" really a misnomer. Sometimes we have particular class that even has a complete ''city block'' (in the form of a gargantuan ornate castle) built ON ITS SHOULDERS. It also has rules in Warhammer 40K. To say the "miniature" will be taller than you is an understatement. Just how much bigger though is a mystery because the damn things vary from 40m in the Titan Legions fluff to...something quite obviously taller than 40m when using the infantry pouring out of its legs as a scale guide on the box cover. Go figure. Hehe figure. Talking about miniatures...

	How powerful? Take a couple of [[/v/\|Yamato-class battleships]] and add [[Dakka\|More Dakka]] and a bunch of other [[Shooty\|shooty]] bits. Oh, and some of them have enough nuclear firepower to [[exterminatus\|devastate]] an entire biosphere of a large island. Or half a continent, depending on which Titan you're being exterminated by. <s>They have almost enough [[dakka]]</s> You can NEVER have enough. The largest, the Imperator and Warmonger classses, can devastate entire planets if left unchecked.

	How scary are they? The apocalypse is walking towards you; start praying to whatever [[emperor\|ho]][[gork\|ly]] [[mork\|go]][[Chaos\|d]] you believe in and hope it uses the [[bolter]] cannon first, cause that [[flamer\|flamethrower]] shit hurts. Though only some of them have models, and you can only get them from [[Forge World]], so, they cost an arm and leg in terms of real money unless you have the time, skill, cardboard, and paper mache to make one yourself.

	* Original [[~~Dungeons & Dragons]] had them as not-ugly, not-stupid giants in the [[Greyhawk]] supplement.~~		See [[Titan_(D%26D)\|Titan (D&D)]] for relevant information.
	* [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]] had them in the [[Monster Manual]], 17-22 hit dice and 7d6 points of damage on a normal attack, could cast any magic-user or cleric spells as if level 15, had eight psionic powers but were immune to psionic attack, and invisible at-will. They looked like beautiful 18-foot tall Greek giants. Levitate or ethereal twice a day.
	* AD&D2 had them in the Monstrous Compendium #8 ''(~~nobody I knew kept buying the MCs after #3, no idea what 2E titans are like.~~)''
	* [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]] had them in the Monster Manual as 25-foot perfect Greek-god humanoids with a dozen at-will arcane & ~~divine spells as if level 20, and had a challenge rating of 21 (the [[Tarrasque]] is a 20~~)~~. Levitate at-will, ethereal or gate twice a day.~~
	* [[Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition]] uses titans as giants that are more elemental-y and 3 levels higher than normal giants. And some how "necrotic" became an elemental thing. They're even uglier than giants, and these titans can't levitate. They were created by the Primordials for ~~the sole purpose of wrecking everyone's shit, which is the only reason the Primordials ever created anything~~.
