It's going to take me a year to get over being reminded of that particular disappointment. Why isn't it 1983 or 1984 anyway? That raises a lot of other issues BTW.

Is this some Games Workshop muppetry related to their puny Emperor and his heath-robinson life-support kit cos he's like 20000 years old in the era of Space Marines and such?

it's from GW yes. Imperator titans are like 1600+ feet tall armed with huge cannons that'd blow away half a city with one shot.

Nice to remember we won that particular battle.

No, no, Schnellfuer, the ending was bloody awesome. I won't remind you but it was a shock and a realistic one at that.
