Titan Legions (List)

''The Orders of the Collegia Titanicus are the iron fist of the Emperor's rule. A velvet glove would serve no purpose.'' - Grand Master Augrim, Divisio Militaris Order of Imperial Eagles The Titan Legions of the Adeptus Mechanicus have proud histories, some stretching back to even before the Unification Wars and the Great Crusade. These nigh unstoppable, towering mechanical behemoths known as Titans are the pinnacle of the Adeptus Mechanicus' superior knowledge and the prime example of the Imperium's military might. Manufactured on Forge Worlds these embodiments of the Omnissiah stalk the battlefields, utilising arcane technology and terribly weaponry to spitting their apocalyptic fury upon the Emperor upon the Imperium's foes. These great war machines are revered as much for their long service and past deeds as they are for their superior firepower they unleash upon the enemies of mankind.

History
When the Tech-Priests of Mars built their first temples to the Machine God and restored order to their red planet after the Dark Age of Technology had passed, they also laid the basis for the future military arm of the Cult Mechanicus, known as the Titan Legions. The vast fighting machines they built to withstand the hostile environment of their homeworld were called Titans. Since that bygone era, the Titan Legions were created to form the backbone of the armies of the Cult Mechanicus, but as part of the Imperium, they serve the God-Emperor.

Bristling with weaponized turrets and possessing potent weapons capable of leveling fortresses and obliterating entire formations of enemy troops, the Titans became ponderous battleships of the battlefields. Revered for their technological advancement and connection to the Machine God's divinity, Titans have a holiness invested in them by virtue of their antiquity and technical complexity. To the Tech-Priests of Mars the Titans represent something more than just fighting machines but as a personal aspect of their beloved Omnissiah.

When the Cult Mechanicus took to the stars, hoping to find remnants of human knowledge lost to history, they settled on worlds throughout the galaxy. Founding new colonies of the Cult Mechanicus, each of these Forge Worlds became a replica of Mars with its temples to the Machine God, enormous spiring hives and innumerable factories and manufactorums. Each of these new worlds was protected by its own Titan Legion.
