This is my Warlord Titan: the most expensive miniature ever produced by Games Workshop. Standing an impressive 2 feet tall, it even comes with a certificate of authenticity. I'm MiniWarGamer Dave, and I'm proud to have one in my collection of Warhammer miniatures. A few years ago, Nathaniel Taylor painstakingly assembled this model for me. Though he has since passed on, I'm dedicating this video to him in his honor. But before we dive into that, for those who are new to the Warhammer 40,000 universe, let's discover the lore behind the Warlord Titan. Nate, this one's for you, brother.

Warlord Titan Lore:
Welcome to the universe of Warhammer 40,000—a dystopian galaxy consumed by endless conflict. At the heart of humanity's struggle stands the Emperor of Mankind, an immortal being of immense psychic power. Though physically bound to the Golden Throne on Terra, his will guides the Imperium, a vast empire spanning millions of worlds.
The Emperor's greatest creations were the Primarchs—twenty superhuman demigods engineered to lead his legions. Scattered across the stars by dark forces, their tales of heroism and betrayal have shaped the fate of the galaxy.
From this backdrop emerges the Warlord Titan—a titan of titans, a walking fortress of unrivaled power. Born in the sacred forges of the Adeptus Mechanicus, these behemoths are crafted over decades, even centuries. Each one is a masterpiece of forgotten technologies and arcane rituals.
The Adeptus Mechanicus, guardians of ancient knowledge, build and maintain these giants. They view technology as sacred, intertwining machinery with mysticism. A Warlord Titan's crew comprises dozens, including the Princeps, Moderati, Tech-Priests, and servitors—all working in unison to awaken the metal giant.
At the heart of every Titan lies its Machine Spirit—a sentient essence that breathes life into steel. Think of it as the soul of the machine, a consciousness that can aid or hinder its operators. The Machine Spirit must be revered and appeased, for it holds the power to enhance the Titan's capabilities or resist the commands of its crew. Commanding this mechanical colossus is the Princeps, the chief pilot who shares a symbiotic bond with the Titan. Through neural links, the Princeps feels what the Titan feels, seeing the battlefield through its sensors. This connection is intense—melding man and machine into one. The Princeps must assert control over the Machine Spirit, guiding its immense power with human intuition and strategy.
The Warlord Titan is a cornerstone of the Imperium's might, deployed by the Titan Legions of the Collegia Titanica. These Legions are allied with various forge worlds, each with its own heraldry and traditions. However, not all Titans serve the Emperor. Some have fallen into the hands of Chaos, corrupted and twisted to fight against their former allies.
As a unit, the Warlord Titan is unmatched—a siege engine capable of leveling entire cities. Its arsenal includes plasma annihilators, laser blasters, and missile launchers. Yet, its strengths are balanced by weaknesses. The Titan's massive size makes it a prominent target. It requires vast resources and support to maintain and deploy. To allies, it is a symbol of hope and dominance; to enemies, a harbinger of destruction.
In our world, the Warlord Titan model is a testament to craftsmanship. Originally designed by Forge World, a division of Games Workshop, the model is crafted from high-quality resin. Each piece is intricately detailed, capturing the grandeur of the Titan on a smaller scale. Hobbyists assemble and paint these models, investing hours to bring them to life. Due to the model's complexity and the value of genuine craftsmanship, each Warlord Titan model comes with a certificate of authenticity. This ensures collectors receive an original piece, maintaining the integrity and value of these remarkable creations.
The Warlord Titan is more than a war machine; it's a symbol—a fusion of human ambition and technological might. In the endless wars of the 41st millennium, it stands as a towering reminder of humanity's quest for survival and supremacy. Whether on the tabletop or in the lore, the Warlord Titan captivates our imagination, embodying the epic scale of Warhammer 40,000.
