Diskussion - Adeptus Mechanicus - inkl. Skitarii und Cult Mechanicus

Gigantische Kreaturen werden von Sniperwaffen sowieso immer nur auf die 6 verwundet.
Und Höllenfeuergeschosse bei der Sternguard sind Gift 2+. Man kann jetzt sagen, dass die generell geändert werden, ich denke aber, dass man es einfach nur kürzer hingeschrieben hat, um Gift und Sniper klarer zu trennen.

Da gibts wohl verschiedene Meinungen, und bei der Diskussion kann man sich sehr gut im Kreis drehen.
Wird grade recht aktuell im KFKA drüber diskutiert und es dreht und dreht und dreht sich.

Gerücht zum neuen Cult Mechanicus HQ:
Via Captain Citadel

The HQ unit for the New Cult Mechanicus is called a Tech Priest Dominus. This is a larger character model that is similar to the Forge World Magos models, except it is done in plastic. He is similar yet different that a Magos, robed and slightly hunched over from the arcane mechanisms mounted on his back. There are two head options one is crowned with a strange almost papal hat and the other with the normal hooded mechanicus garb.

There are servo arms that stabilize the figure to the ground and do not have free motion. He walks with an immense staff that is a much larger and more ornate version of a Tech Prist’s weapon, and also sports a cane.

The model has multiple spidery legs concealed under his robe, and is on a 40mm base.

Da Natfka mit seinen Adeptus Mechanicus-Gerüchten bisher richtig lag, hier etwas zu einer Einheit großer Roboter

via an anonymous source on Faeit 212

I was just told that there is a new Giant Robot for Cult Mechanicus in the Heavy Support slot
You get 2 giant robots and one Datasmith as a squad. The robots stand twice the ht of a space marine and are MCs. If I remember correctly you can add additional robots, it was 2 or 3. The Datasmith is a character that controls them

Da bin ich mal gespannt
 
Damit meinte ich auch eher das Konzept im Allgemeinen.
Wenn man Riptide, Wraithknight und Gorka/Morkanaut außenvor lässt (was man meiner Meinung nach nicht tun sollte nur weil sie Xenos sind, da sie auch das Konzept abdecken), dann haben wir zwei Kinghtvarianten, zwei Ungradepacks(?) gibts von FW, zwei weitere sind auf dem Weg.
Hey, Zeit der neuen Fraktion erstmal einen großen Roboter zu geben?!

(Hey, für die Mark Einundelfzig Servorüstung gibts jetzt von FW mit Schulterplatten mit Salamanderemblem! :cat🙂


post scriptum
Ich bin deutlich weniger davon aufgebracht, als der Text den Anschein erwecken könnte, ich finde es nur irgendwie unnötig.
Unabhängig davon, dass ich davon überzeugt bin, dass es ein verdammt cooles Modell werden könnte. 😉

The name of the new tracked infantry models that will be releasing areKataphron Destroyers.
They are the lighter armoured tracked infantry variants that features two types of cannon; a version of the familiar plasma cannon and a newer larger tech-based calibre weapon of mysterious providence.
The models themselves feature a mechanical upper body hardwired both into the track assembly and weapon arms, but can swivel at the hip whilst their power feeds are contained into rear back mounted power sources.
Each miniature has the main weapon attached to their right arms which are cropped at the shoulder, and their left arms contain a smaller hand held flamer type weapon.
Their heads are rife with targeting reticules and there is no organic components visible on these versions of the models.
They are heavy support choices for Cult Mechanicus.

from Captain Citadel over on BoLS...
"Cult Mechanicus will feature a new robot type unit that is part Forge World Castellex, part Space Marine Centurion.
Their bodies are plated armour sealed in the front much like the centurions in appearance, but with no chest mounted weapons. They are on 50mm bases and are quite larger than the Centurion models. Their heads are a giant domed EVA helmet which looks quite fantastic. There are no organic components visible the models, they are automanta.

There are several armaments they come with; a larger calibre cannon in their right hand to flamer type weapon in their left. Articulated hands with finger appendages are also an option, as well as a top shoulder mounted versions of these same type weapons."
