We need the infrastructure first, which will then proceed to build them at something like 1 per ten years (or five years, can't recall).
EDIT:
The relevant action.

Almost not a mistake, you just need to multiply numbers you given - our actual production speed is one Warlord per 50 years per small manufactorum.

Thankfully probably quicker for smaller titans and we can have more than one active.
Still crazy though.

@Durin
1. how effective would titans be against gargants compared to our present anti gargetn answers?
2. in general, are gargants the most dangerous part of ork hoards for us?
2.a if yes by how much of a margin?
3. if we built a titan manufactury, how long would it take for it to produce enough titans to have a major impact?

we could likely build more than one manufactury and we also might be able to enlarge and expand the manufacturys

Given that the action says 'one small Titan manufactorum' we can almost certainly expand it or repeat the action in order to ramp up our Titan manufactoring.

yes, but a single one takes 12 years of admech action, so i'm curious if it would be useful on its own, or if we'd need to put more actions into it for it to be useful. Specfically i'm trying to figure out if we could have a useful number of new titans in time if that brewing waaggh

this is most likely cause it the first one and they are still getting the method for building them down
To be fair they're Scott actions not Tranth actions to build manufactorums, unfortunately we will in all likelihood won't have any in time for the next Waaagh. However we may be able to have a healthy maniple for the one after that and that could make a huge difference.

A Small Manufactorum makes a Warlord every 50 years. However, it is likely that:
1. Larger Manufactorums build larger Titans faster.
2. Smallter Titans build faster.
3. They build automatically, so once we get the buildings built we won't have to keep worrying about them.

Yes, but we can't use them, Asgard does. There's the psyknights, but we're probably not implementing those for a bit.
Nothing...well except likely casualties and population for expansion.... and attempting to expand into their territory without permission would likely get our asses obliterated off avernus.
I mean the tundra region, not the polar regions. So maybe after we finish implementing the population boosting techs?
We just started colonizing new region, we're not expanding anywhere else for a time being. There is no need to expand to talk with the penguins, anyway.

Eh we probably do if we want to keep regular contact up...but other than that yeah.
We'd use planes and orbital shuttles to get to where penguins are anyway, and there's not much difference between launching those from the north of Avernus' Spine or the new region. So I don't see why.

IIRC we don't actually do that much, mostly because it's almost certain to get people killed if we're not heading somewhere with strong friendly AA.
Maybe the penguins count after we make first contact, but I very much doubt we're first going to them by plane.
I very much doubt that wildlife would be able to easily shoot down Hercules Dropships, and would like citations to the contrary, but even if so, we can use the Research Facility.
Pretty sure some of the larger bombardment cacti could threaten a Hercules, and there are plenty of dragons that could. I suspect that the tundra region is about the same tier as Tarrascon in terms of threat.
I mean, I don't doubt that sometimes Hercules' are shot down, but I don't think it happens easily or very often.

Once we meet up with the penguins we can probably maintain contact through psychic means, we can maintain contact with the elder on the other side of the galaxy so I doubt contacting the guys on the same planet with even greater psychic abilities than the elder would be that hard. Setting up cities just so we can chat in person seems a bit OTT to me.

I'd say it probably does from the Psyrodactryl alone.
Well we don't maintain contact with the Eldar via psycic means, Eldrad got a device over to Rids and they chat via that.
