* The game opens with Titus (with Jump Pack) singlehandedly dropping down onto an Ork frigate (after avoiding all those shipwrecks in the air), massacring half the crew, and shooting it down before riding the flaming wreckage down to the planet's surface. ''This is the game's tutorial level''.
** You forgot the best part. How he managed to drop the frigate? He turned its main gun (firing all the time) against its bridge. ''Literally.''
*** Simply saying he "turned" it doesn't quite get the image across. He actually grabbed the front of the turret by hand and forced it around by sheer brute strength until it was pointing at the ship's own bridge. Space Marines clearly believe in the direct approach.
*** And let's not forget he had only [[WithThisHerring a combat knife and a bolt pistol]], at that point.
** This also reinforces why Orks love fighting against Space Marines. Because he pretty much destroyed the frigate in a way an Ork Nob would do too, just with less mad laughter.
* The first time you used the ground pound with the Jump Pack. Bonus points if you actually directly hit an enemy on your way down. Double bonus points if you got the Death From Above achievement in just the first jump pack area.
* This exchange:
--> '''Grimskull:''' I ain't finished with you yet, Space Marine!\\
'''Titus:''' [[PreMortemOneLiner But I am finished with you, Ork.]]\\
''[Titus proceeds to ''make Grimskull's freakin' head explode'']''
* Riding a fucking WARLORD BATTLE TITAN.
* Grimskull should also get an honorary mention. As Nemeroth is summoned, he sics several Bloodletters to jump at the Warboss and topples him off of the rather high platform. Later into the cutscene, Grimskull climbs right back up ready to have several goes at Nemeroth, no worse for the wear. As he knocks both of them off the platform, it's clear the ork is not the least bit intimidated.
--> '''Grimskull:''' '''WAAAAAAGGHHH!!''' ''[locks eyes with Nemeroth]''. [[TranquilFury I ain't so easy to kill]], ''heh heh heh heh''...
* Titus single-handily fighting his way up the Orbital Spire, powering through hordes of militia, Bloodletters and Traitor Marines warping in from the Immaterium, with a jump pack and a Thunder Hammer; culminating in a showdown with [[FinalBoss Nemeroth]] himself.
--> '''Chaos Marine''': There! Kill the Loyalist!
--> '''Captain Titus''': Your brothers thought the same, Traitor. ''Their'' corpses lie behind me.
* Beating the hell right out of a Daemon Prince while free falling from a ruined space elevator? Holy shit!
** Not to mention literally [[YourHeadASplode crushing]] said Daemon Prince's head with your bare hands.
** The ShutUpHannibal comment he gave beforehand is awe-inspiring, as it truly demonstrates Titus' IncorruptiblePurePureness
-->'''Nemeroth''': Admit it, Titus. The power of [[ReligionOfEvil Chaos]] is within you, calling to this relic. Imagine the Ultramarines [[GalacticConqueror dominating this galaxy in glorious conquest]], with you at their head. [[WeCanRuleTogether Imagine the power you could wield]]-\\
'''Captain Titus''': -[[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity as a slave to Chaos?]] ''Nothing you say'' can tempt me from the path of honour - or from avenging the deaths of my battle brothers.
* Marching across a Chaos-held bridge with a Tactical Squad of Blood Ravens behind you and halfway across, a squad of Ultramarines drop in from orbit behind the force you're battling!
** This is made especially awesome by the fact that the reinforcements actually have a palpable effect. It's not simply putting good guys in the field so you don't feel alone in the middle of battle, they genuinely start making the crossing MUCH easier. The whole game has gotten its challenge from how Titus' Ultramarine squad has been completely outnumbered, but getting some help from fellow battle-brothers is enough to start turning the tide in Titus' favor.
** Titus knows about the Aurelian Crusade and doesn't question the Blood Ravens' loyalty in spite of their previous chapter master and much of the upper ranks being heretical. This suggests that not only is the Space Marine ending of ''Retribution'' canon (supported by the Blood Ravens using Angelos' BadassCreed), but that Titus knows of their feats and believes in them enough to have no doubts about warriors he has only just met whose chapter was known for being tainted. Truly awesome for the Blood Ravens.
** It might not be something that happens every playthrough, but in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAkZOvlXNu8) when the Chaos Marines see Titus and the Blood Ravens charging their line, even though they have you very much outnumbered and outgunned, the very first thing you hear is one of them screaming "RETREAT!!"
* At the very end of the single player campaign, Titus delivers a truly epic verbal smackdown to Leandros who called the Inquisition down on Titus and labeled him a heretic because Leandros followed the Codex to the letter.
-->'''Titus''': The Codex Astartes is a set of rules. They guide us... shape us as Ultramarines ... teach us to hold duty and honor sacred above all. But how we live with those rules is the true test of a Space Marine. And you... have failed.
* The Adeptus Astartes arrive at the battle expecting the Imperial Guard on the ground to be dead, due to the fact that they are outgunned and [[ZergRush vastly outnumbered]] by the Orks. But within minutes, the Space Marines learn that not only are the Guard still alive, [[TheDeterminator they are still directly countering the Orks, despite their very small comparative number]]. Captain Titus is ''astounded.''
-->'''Captain Titus''': A few hundred against a million Orks. And they fight on.
