These mysterious robotic beings are not met too often, but can be found as mercenaries or scientists around the space.
Due to their creative and scientific minds these beings are extremely skilled in advanced technology, but love to concentrate on destructive force - their second best talent. They get very creative, when it's all about destruction, and equip themselves with their latest deadly tools.
As a community, they act similarly to a company or an army, organizing stations and bases on various locations. They sell their talents to scientific research and military forces, the second being their biggest source of income.
They also tend to send out scavengers to search for new technology that might be useful. This lead a group of these arriving to the sleeping Treadanus Nui.
Messing up with the systems, Treadanus Nui woke up before he was meant to and left to Spherus Magna.
Noting the unwanted guests inside him, Treadanus remotely reprogrammed the minds of the group of TYASTs to be an additional defense force and put them to sleep. Later on TYASTs have been sometimes seen outside Treadanus' crashed body fixing damages or doing other tasks and disappearing soon after.
They became known as TYASTs (Treadanus' Yell Against System Trespassers) as the colossus' could hear Treadanus giving a yell inside his body and soon after a TYAST appearing somewhere.
The red parts on their body symbolize their servitude to Treadanus Nui. Otherwise they'd be mainly black and dark blue.
Now to weaponry.
The legs being skinny the TYASTs stand gives an immense downforce, allowing it to crush various targets under it's feet. As an addition, the electric emitters on the legs can send down a charge to the foot to cause a shockwave on each step.
The left arm is very long - it allows the TYAST grab small objects from the ground at ease and - due to their size - the objects are mostly enemy beings. If target is too far to grab, the TYAST may use it's small machinegun under the lower arm.
Now the technological and destructional triumph of the TYASTs. The multi-functional right weapon arm.
Weapon #1: A huge blade. Fitting for close combat and cooking.
En garde!
Weapon #2: Grabbing claws. Can grab/crush/pierce objects...
...or work for dragging hostages.
Weapon #3: What would a war machine titan do without a big laser cannon? NOTHING.
Best choice for massive destruction or BBQ.
IMMA FIRIN' MAH LAZOOR!
Building the TYAST required a few victims.
Dystrax: Kill me.
Monarth: I wonder was it a good idea to build the TYAST in the end... TYAST: *charges laser* Monarth: Oh crud... *censored*
So yeah, this is my entry to the 4th round. I'm glad I've made this far. Building this was a fairly tough challenge, making me build differently from my common designs. I mostly managed, but a couple victims were necessary :P Next week I'll be getting my mocs back from LegoPark 2011, so that'll balance out my lack of parts. I'll be getting Rocka XL and Witch Doctor somewhere soon for more parts. Though I live that much to countryside that I don't have a chance too often to visit large enough stores.
I definitely hope you like this titan of mine. The largest I've built for a period. And I really love how my multi-weapon arm turned out :D It's pretty much the best weapon I've ever crafted. I wish good luck to my opponent, Legofreak2444 and I hope you leave ratings and comments below :)

This is a great entry, quite different from usual and with a nice shape. The gun arm have some nice functions, even tough it doesn't look that well. Anyway, I vote for you on this one.
The gun arm definitely was a prototype, some polishing will be done later on with similar designs. Thank you :)

Awesome MOC. So expressive, so threatening, so powerful! It speaks for itself. From now on I authorize you to call yourself Monarch GS. You get my vote, by the way.
I appreciate your words :) Thank you. Though I shall remain as Monarth :) Or would a name edit t->c be in position? :D

Despite some off color issues especially with the use of some dark blue, I think you were able to pull off what I probably think is the best titan of this round period. It has a very unique war machine look that Hollywood would incorporate in some of their alien invasion movies. Bravo. My votes for you.

Whoa! Not really big on Bionicle but I have to say that this is pretty epic. I can tell its huge and I really love the details and creativeness. Excellent work!

There are some things i don't like, for example the double joints in the legs and waist, but other than that, this moc looks pretty EPIC! the multi weapon is cool ! Awesome job. Hey do you speak french ? (You wrote "en Garde") Just curioos. Anyways, great job, and i'm sure you'll win this round of the contest ! (sorry Legofreak2444)
I couldn't afford better designs than the double joints. As I stated, I'm lacking certain parts, I had to use alternate ways. And no, I don't speak French. En garde is a common phrase used here and there, nothing special else than that.
