Warhammer 40k Codex Adeptus Mechanicus

Product Information

I have been playing Warhammer 40K since the 1990s, and have won multiple national events including Adepticon and GW GTs. Overall they had five different detachments, and while they don’t feel so much as Forgeworlds like the Marine detachments felt like Chapters, they do really push armies to be built in specific ways. We’ve also got a full review of the new 10th Edition Necron codex too which you can check out right here! A display of expertly painted Citadel miniatures in the ‘Eavy Metal showcase, highlighting various forge world color schemes. In addition to this there is another mechanic that runs parallel where your force has heard whispers of some even rarer and more powerful Archeotech, and over the course of a campaign you try and gather locational data to find where it is.

The new Skitarii Hunter Cohort is an ideal pairing with the Skatros, sharing all the sensor-baffling tools you need to sneak your entire army around the battlefield. This codex also delves into the Adeptus Mechanicus’ arcane beliefs, their advanced cybernetics, the significance of their forge worlds, and their pivotal role within the Imperium, providing a full dossier on their place in the cosmic war. So unless you have been sleeping under a rock for the last few months, the new 10th edition of Warhammer 40k has landed to much fanfare.Let’s open up with the most fun of these enhancements which takes the form of Emotionless Clarity , which allows you to (once per turn) trigger Deadly Demise on a friendly Adeptus Mechanicus Vehicle or Legio Cybernetica model within 12” of the bearer. Once you have the required components you remove them from your log and have a nice new shiny piece of gear to equip on an eager test subject. After everything is deployed and you’ve determined who goes first, this enhancement lets you redeploy three units of Skitarii Infantry (including putting them into Strategic Reserves). Ignore modifiers remains a very powerful rule, handing this out alongside Fall Back and shoot really makes this stratagem shine.

Illustrations depicting the Adeptus Mechanicus’ unique blend of the organic and the mechanical, as well as their grand scale. You’ll still want a few Skitarii utility pieces around, but you need to be using the Cult Mechanicus for your heavy lifting. As expected all their strats effect vehicles and cybernetica units, with things such as increasing charges, making units able to fall back and shoot with no penalties, or gaining feel no pain saves.Each roll of a 5+ does a mortal wound and you get +1 to the result if the enemy is within 6″ of an Electro-Priest.

This strategem no longer gives out Advance and Charge, which is a shame, but there’s a silver lining. Lore on the origins and practices of the Adeptus Mechanicus and the rich history of the forge worlds. Today we’re looking at the upcoming 10th edition Codex For the Adeptus Mechanicus, unpacking the new rules, and talking about how they change the faction.If you’re one of the people still mad that Cult Mechanicus and Skitarii were only separate armies for like a few months in 7th Edition, this might be the detachment for you, as it’s the Cult Mechanicus show. The army still feels a bit lackluster: While there are a number of improvements here and interesting detachments, the overall power level of the book feels lower than the other releases we’ve seen so far, especially at their current points values. Things improved a little bit with the fall dataslate, but Admech players have been waiting months now for a full overhaul of their army which might give them more variety and a detachment rule worth playing.
