A little connection between the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Necrons. If you read Mechanicum plus the necrons codex it is STRONGLY hinted that the C´tan The Dragon is buried/imprisoned beneath the sands of Mars and in ancient times before the coming of The Emperor, The Dragon was worshiped as the Machine god.
If the Dragon escapes its confines on Mars you can bet your ass that there will be a huge civil war between The Adeptus Mechanicus and the Iom will suffer greatly because of it.
That's damn scary. But then again the Techpriests often messes around in Necron tombs calling the small spider-like things there nice, while wanting them to come alive, which Ciaphas Cain thought a plate-sized spider like that nasty Brazilian one would look like a cuddly pet in comparison.
@Erikjust Actually, if the the Void Dragon ever escaped, it would single handedly cause the fall of the Imperium, because all technology that Mankind has, is derived from the teachings of the Void Dragon. Who is the C'Tan god of technology, he can control tech. So it would cause all of the Imperium's machines to turn on them. From the lowliest Lasgun, to Entire Space fleets.
@operationkilled Idiot they couldn't remove him from the throne without opening the Door of the palace. Otherwise you can be sure there would have been a rebuilt Emperor
@hutchy1k94 question, just what the hell is a melta anyway? is it a heat-ray or some sort of liquid fire? because if its a gas then isn't it just the equivialant of a super flame thrower?
It depends on who you ask really, I'm one of those that think it's a super-heated-laser-thing, while others believe it fire a sort of mega heated chemical compound.
@hutchy1k94 they said its some sort of gas thats compressed into a sub-molecular state. I think that's implied in the the 4th rulebook, but that still doesn't explain. thanx.
@Gan3lon Not really, it's not. If you read the Tau codex it says how railguns pierce through Imperial tanks and the humans can't even believe such a weapon exists.
Other then that, there could be heretics among the Machanicum, but as a friend of mine once pointed out... assassins.
@Makkovar Railguns are about the only thing that's superior. I mean, Tau believed that something like a Warhound Titan couldn't exist.... until they got trampled by one.
Also, Power Armour.
P.S. Codex are biased in general, if you read IG or SM codexes you'll read that no-one is able to beat them, same with Chaos codexes (exaggerated a bit there, but my point still stands).
Without the Adeptus Mechanicus the Imperium would not be standing.
If the Adeptus Mechanicus was to launch a full scale surprise attack against the Imperium using the strength of the Titan Legions, Knights and any other Mechanicus affiliated forces they would most likely win. If not in short term warfare, definitely in long term. Who makes the ships? Who manufactures the weapons and armor? Who makes the ammo? Just my opinion, not that they would turn on the Imperium any time soon. :L
@splosivechicken Who produces the materials used in the Manufactoriums? Who supplies the manpower for the endless assembly lines? Who provides the food, water and air that even the Techpriests themselves need?
Most importantly of all, who would protect their precious Forge Worlds from endless hordes of Heretics and Daemons, swarms of Tyranids, Tau expansionism, Eldar manipulations, Dark Eldar raids, awakening Tomb Worlds, and Ork WAAGHS!?
The Mechnicus Needs the Imperium. That's why it works.
@CommissarG Yeah. And that's... Hm. Quite a bit, considering how many Forge Worlds would be wiped out by Ork WAAAGH!s if the Guard the Navy weren't there to suppress their growth. And how the AdMech alone would be torn apart piecemeal by the Eldar - which the pointy-ears would, given the AdMech's tendency to poke around in stuff they aren't supposed to touch.
@CommissarG Because "all they need the Imperium for" indicates that the Imperium is more dependent on the AdMech than vice versa - which isn't true.
Besides, Forge Worlds consume *absurd* amounts of raw materials - the AdMech couldn't match the volume produced by the Imperium, though admittedly, if it wasn't for the Imperium's needs for equipment and machines, they wouldn't need to produce even a fraction of what they do.
@LordSia13 Who stood while the Imperium crumbled? The only reason why Techpriests need food is because the Imperium restricted the Mechanicum with laws.
Without the Imperium the Mechanicum military would never had dissipated and dissolved into nothing but Imperial auxiliaries (Knights, Titans, Imperial Navy, Skitarii, Tech-Guard) or simple guard duty.
It matters not anyway, Tranquility in Death, Praise the Machine, the Necrons rise, and you will fall.
I would assume A titan would make for an excellent mobile base. Heavily guarded doors at the feet, spiral stairs and ladders up the legs, armories and secured gunship seats amongst the innumerable and insanely sized ammunition cashes. Tech priest gunman and those blessed enough to manipulate the controls all wearing a special monocle that displays text information because everyone aboard is deaf from the constant gunfire. Servo Skulls swarming the whole thing making constant repairs.It'd be cool
@scarletraven87 if you think about it a titan is bascaly a walking space hulk and may have anti atmoshperoc weaponery that can shoot the ships out of the air and what if they dont have any ships in the air at the time the the titan is the next best thing correct
Why build titans? first off because they make a damn good answer to the huge ridiculous monstrosities that OTHER factions have, it's not like the Imperieam is alone in their creation of these giants or their use. Are they silly magnets just asking for a orbital asset to lay the hammer on them? Yes. are they practical? hell no. BUT they are damn useful against the other 200 story giant that's roaming the battlefield.
@Scarletraven87 well... the point being is, that while the titan is on the ground crushing enemy fortifcations and entire formations, the enemy ships that would be firing at it are engaged with Imperial ships. I for one would rather have a seige engine capable of taking down the wall that is thousands of feet tall and hundreds of feet thick with defences then one more Ship... which would need a freaken beakcon for it to accuratly hit the wall with enough force to break it. Titan is a good thing.
@Scarletraven87 It's a basic theory of sword and shield. In the real world today, the sword (gun, bomb, missle ...etc) is far superior than the shield (armor vehicle, armor infantry... ) there is basically nothing that can protect you from high fire power. But in the Warhammer 40k world, this theory is not applicable with the presence of energy shield and self-resurrect, constructive metal. The shield in Warhammer 40k is on par with the sword. So it would take a tremendous effort to kill a titan
@Scarletraven87 In 40k you can't use a ship for the same things Titans are used for because ship weapons are only used prior to troop deployment. A titan is a siege engine of comparable power that can be used without killing all of your troops. There's also the unfortunate fact that anything a Titan is going to be attacking will probably be a reinforced fortress of some type and is therefore likely to have a Defence Laser: an anti-orbital weapon that will shoot your ships down.
@Scarletraven87 They dont make Titians, almost all of them are recovered and repaired/re-equiped with weapons from other warmachines. It works the same with Baneblades. For example a shadowlord, half the time the volcano cannon is unusable and the technology isn't around to repair it/make a new one. So they turn it into a Banehammer.
Titians are considered relics and almost all of the ones in service are used as protector of important worlds.
@red244 On top of that half the imperial fleet is either destoryed or always in battle so half the time they cant even call for plantary wide bombardments. Plus, the only fraction with the ability to do plantary wide destruction is the Inquistion, which renders the planet uninhabitable.
A titian is much more effective and doesn't leave a planet uninhabited for almost all enternity. Plus what happens if the warp is around a planet, you certainly wont get support then.
Only very small ship <1000 metres could get near enough to a titan to actually be accurate enough to hit them directly. They can survive indirect fire, and any small ship that size poses a serious risk of being hulled by the titan.
@TehOrkyMan So, to make it clear, you're telling me that such a plan would require to get so low that they get hulled. And you're telling me that the orbital fire is able to hit on the battlefield but they can't hit a target as big as a Titan (wich to a real scale should be as large). And you're telling me that they can bomb each-other in open space but can't hit a stationary target. 3x times it just can't be.
Battles in which Titans get deployed to are truly massive, having a "front" on several dozen km. Titans have hellishly powerful void shields that can be generally trusted to withstand anything besides a direct impact from Chuck Norris-yield weaponry.
Most space-bourne weaponry is either short range or much too powerful to use on a planet unless exterminatus has been declared. The rest is fairly inaccurate. Drop pods filled with melta bombs might do something. They're guided.
@Scarletraven87 You're right. Orbital bombardment probably is a more economical and efficient means of bringing massive firepower into the field. But one of the biggest impediments to that is that any time the Imperium fields war ships to a battle it is in response to the enemy having their own warships in the area. It is very difficult for a warship to provide ground support when it's fighting another warship. And air cover can be shot down or suppressed. Thus, the titans were born.
I don't know what is the weirder part of the WH40K universe, the numerous cases of hand-to-hand combat being more effective than guns, or that this bunch of pyschos were able to gain technological monopoly when they sound like the have the least common sense of anybody in the Imperium, and that's saying something.
@dragonstormx Its implied that the AdMech do know now their machines work; at least the higher ups. Of course this just brings them closer to the Machine God.
I mean it must take some skill to keep 10000 year old ships and tanks working, right?
I didn't mean they were bad at their job, I mean they hold the Imperium back with crazy beliefs, and did a bunch like these guys appear in the first place?
@dragonstormx Problem is that when you invent new tech there is a risk of Chaos getting involved. Either Tzeentch or Slaanesh subvert you. There is even a story about a Guardsman who modded his lasgun so it would fire faster.... and he ended up with a Daemon lasgun after he accidentally drew the Khorne symbol on it.
Plus new tech might destabilize the Imperium and lead to another civil war.
Okay, if the Chaos gods can do stuff like that then I'm officially convinced that they are actively sabotaging every effort made by anybody to defeat the Imperium, and why is it that a detail like that, and that stuff created in the warp not being able to exist outside, are never place where people new to the stuff can find them. And if something like that can happen, how is that the Imperium can even make simple repairs or weapon refits?
@dragonstormx Belief has power in the 40k verse, and this includes belief in an entity like the Machine God. The Tech-Priests dogma is implied to keep their machines "pure". Its sorta like how Battle Sisters (despite not being psykers) can pull off minor miracles on the battlefield.
sometimes when i see these mechanicus people i feel sorry for them over how messed up their flesh is mixed with machines xD they could scare the shit out of the devil over how some of them look
I heard that scaring the devil is one reason for their enhancements. If you swap all your flesh for metal and plastic chaos (Satan) finds it harder to posses or so the story goes. I wonder can though they might have found ways to clone organs and limbs and ordinary plebs must mkae do with these when they get hurt.
The omnissiah is a lie. When the undying reawaken the false machine shall be eradicated. The dragon shall awake and the heresy of the mechanicus shall end with the heresy of the living.
May the Omnissiah extend His blessings to you all, Adepts of The Machine! His electrical lifeblood flows through your cogitators and allows us to envelope this whole world with His Lesser Manifestations. Technology is everywhere.
I love the Mechanicum. One of my favorite Chaos Legions is the Iron Warriors because I always imagined them to have A LOT of the Dark Mechanicum on their side. And I am in love with the pic at 0:31! Where'd you find it?
And if I'm not mistaken at 2:34 that should be the Titan from Galaxy in Flames
Just got here from reading "Mechanicum". The entire second half of the novel was just depressing. So much death, and for nothing. But this goes to show one thing:
YOU. DON'T. FUCK. WITH. THE. MECHANICUM. NOT EVEN THE MECHANICUM CAN FUCK WITH THE MECHANICUM.
Also, Kelbor-Hal, Melgator, and the Legio Mortis disliked this video.
Hell yes, Adeptus Mechanicus are one of the most awesome parts of Warhammer. Sadly there's no sign of them other than the Techmarine in DOW2 yet. (Really wanted a Techseer for IG :( )
For all those who hear the Machine Spirit. It does exist. just attune yourself to whatever you work with. Remember, there are Mechanics who can diagnose the problem with a car just by hearing it run.
Its not anything spiritual. Its just hearing the details.
I think an Ad Mech codex would be sweet, especially if knights were a heavy choice. And AM is everywhere, both to recollect what was lost, and for creating. Would you consider an engineer rare on planets? A mechanic? A machinist? They would all be Ad Mech.
i don't think an adeptus mechanicus codex would be cool
fluffwise having spacemarines playable is wierd, as they have less than one spacemarine per every imperial world, they are so rare most have only heard of them, some believing they are urban legends.
now AM are by far fewer, residing on only one small planet at the core of the imperium. their primary purpose isn't to go to war at all, but to supply the imperial fleets.
@Nopp3 Mars isn't their only world, thay have many forge worlds around the Imperium and whole legions of Titans. They basically manufacture every bigger weapon, spaceship, they are the ones to keep it going etc. Thay're purpose may not be to go to war but they do have their Skiitari squads and Secutors for such an event.
@Makkovar Is it true that Imperium:Roman Empire::Mechanicum:Israel? The Adeptus Mechanicus seems to combine Greek knowledge and the weirdly different, yet allied religion of the Jews. The medieval Christian massess considered Jews to be exceptionally well-versed in esoteric knowledge, which applies to the Mechanicum. Google "Jewish Magic and Superstition". On a different note, am I the only one who thinks the image at 3:20 looks like the bigoted, traditional depiction of a Jew? :P
@Nopp3 you are right on all these points, however the adeptus mechanicus has mobilised for war in 40k lore. So a codex designed to represent this would be awesome (warlord titan as heavy support :) really sweet).
@cromwell300 Well, the Israelites had their own little empire before the Romans came along and conquered (almost) the entire known world! I'd like a codex too, but I'm not really into the game, so I wouldn't exactly be ecstatic either.
@Nopp3 mars had an empire of its own before the emperor. the symbol of the imperium is the two-headed eagle, symbolizing the fusion of the empire of earth and the adeptus mechanicus.
@Nopp3 Hey I know your comment on this video is old, but as a Space Marine player, I have to inform you, Space Marines are playable in the Table Top version because it is assumed the conflict has grown to such a scale where a company or even a full chapter of Space Marines was called together. This is why most Battle Missions and scenarios are meant to be based around great battles in 40k history. It's like the fact that the Necrons are allowed to use the C'tan, unlikely, but legal.
@Snowman3496 the trouble I always find is reconciling the backstory for the Space Marines with their capabilities: the codex is filled with tales of their ability to shrug off impossible wounds, or they unnerring accuracy. All of that is blown to wind, of course, in tabletop, where mere bullets can kill them. I understand that it is all for the sake of the game mechanic, but it never does the fluff justice.
@Nopp3 at least learn the background fluff on AM before you comment on them. There are many many more AM personnel than Space Marines. Billions alone reside on mars. Not to mention the other millions of worlds they would be present on.
@Nopp3 why is it weird? The Astartes were reorganized into Chapters in the Index Astartes so they can proprly function in combat and stuff.
And still the Mechanicum has the Legio Titanica (idk if this is still the name post-heresy) so maybe they should have troops that you could use with a SM or IG army since they have fought side by side before
@Nopp3 wow, someone isn't familliar with the soruce material at all. Thousands upon thousands of forgeworlds exist throughout the Imperium of Man. Each of these worlds contains a legion of Titans.
And finally, a question. Are the Mechanicus a playable race in Warhammer 40k or are they just a few units you can add to other Imperial Armies. I have a Baneblade i modified to be a Mechanicus Baneblade for my Mechanicus themed IG army, but if there is a Mechanicus army ill just skip the middle man =)
@baval5 There is no offfical Ad Med army. You could do Imperial Guard converted into Skitarii (veteran teams with carapace armour and lots of tanks), or normal Regiments from Industrial worlds, e.g. Vostroyan Firstborn. Look them up on Lexicanum.
The Adeptus Mechanicus are with the Imperial Guard which are all Martians. (Winter Assault Expansion) and the Emperor is not the Omnissiah. Basically saying it, the Martians are Epic.
@Koloszrodosthe Wut. a) The Imperial Guard are not all Martians. In fact, Mars is one of very few worlds that specifically does not have an IG regiment or a chance of raising one.
b) The Adeptus Mechanicus are not "with" the IG, they aren't even technically part of the Imperium, just allied with it. The IG and Space Marine Chapters usually have some members who have trained with the Mechanicus, but they aren't true tech priests.
@DrArku i know u said that comment a while ago but incase u still did not figure it out warhammer was a table top game before a pc game there are quite a few things that the pc game does not have
@wackypack09 Yeah yeah... see you in the flames of Boly Battle, servant of the Corpse Emperor. But yes, the Priesthood of Mars is impressive, regardless of their vile pact with the False Emperor, Thousands of years ago I was cross-trained with the Adeptus Mechanicus to become a Techmarine. Since then I have become Warsmith, and have made a promise to myself not to harm an unarmed Tech Priest... but that doesn't mean I'll stop my brothers from doing it.
@IronHand19 ++ I have intercepted your transmission former marine. If you plan on attacking my home forge on the moon of zerthos, do reconsider, i believe it would be... how do you say it.... unadvisable? My adepts, secutors and maltek stalkers are trained the highest degree. I do not follow mars, the god emperor is not my own, but i shall not fall to the loathe powers of chaos. Do not worry warsmith, your values shall ot be impinged, ALL my techpriests are armed.
i need the adeptus mechanicus to fix my connection so I can see this video correctly

Why build titans? first off because they make a damn good answer to the huge ridiculous monstrosities that OTHER factions have, it's not like the Imperieam is alone in their creation of these giants or their use. Are they silly magnets just asking for a orbital asset to lay the hammer on them? Yes. are they practical? hell no. BUT they are damn useful against the other 200 story giant that's roaming the battlefield.

@Scarletraven87 well... the point being is, that while the titan is on the ground crushing enemy fortifcations and entire formations, the enemy ships that would be firing at it are engaged with Imperial ships. I for one would rather have a seige engine capable of taking down the wall that is thousands of feet tall and hundreds of feet thick with defences then one more Ship... which would need a freaken beakcon for it to accuratly hit the wall with enough force to break it. Titan is a good thing.

@Scarletraven87 It's a basic theory of sword and shield. In the real world today, the sword (gun, bomb, missle ...etc) is far superior than the shield (armor vehicle, armor infantry... ) there is basically nothing that can protect you from high fire power. But in the Warhammer 40k world, this theory is not applicable with the presence of energy shield and self-resurrect, constructive metal. The shield in Warhammer 40k is on par with the sword. So it would take a tremendous effort to kill a titan
aclock2 10 months ago
@Scarletraven87 In 40k you can't use a ship for the same things Titans are used for because ship weapons are only used prior to troop deployment. A titan is a siege engine of comparable power that can be used without killing all of your troops. There's also the unfortunate fact that anything a Titan is going to be attacking will probably be a reinforced fortress of some type and is therefore likely to have a Defence Laser: an anti-orbital weapon that will shoot your ships down.

@Scarletraven87 They dont make Titians, almost all of them are recovered and repaired/re-equiped with weapons from other warmachines. It works the same with Baneblades. For example a shadowlord, half the time the volcano cannon is unusable and the technology isn't around to repair it/make a new one. So they turn it into a Banehammer.
Titians are considered relics and almost all of the ones in service are used as protector of important worlds.

@red244 On top of that half the imperial fleet is either destoryed or always in battle so half the time they cant even call for plantary wide bombardments. Plus, the only fraction with the ability to do plantary wide destruction is the Inquistion, which renders the planet uninhabitable.
A titian is much more effective and doesn't leave a planet uninhabited for almost all enternity. Plus what happens if the warp is around a planet, you certainly wont get support then.

@Scarletraven87
Only very small ship <1000 metres could get near enough to a titan to actually be accurate enough to hit them directly. They can survive indirect fire, and any small ship that size poses a serious risk of being hulled by the titan.
TehOrkyMan 9 months ago
@TehOrkyMan So, to make it clear, you're telling me that such a plan would require to get so low that they get hulled. And you're telling me that the orbital fire is able to hit on the battlefield but they can't hit a target as big as a Titan (wich to a real scale should be as large). And you're telling me that they can bomb each-other in open space but can't hit a stationary target. 3x times it just can't be.

@Scarletraven87
Battles in which Titans get deployed to are truly massive, having a "front" on several dozen km. Titans have hellishly powerful void shields that can be generally trusted to withstand anything besides a direct impact from Chuck Norris-yield weaponry.
Most space-bourne weaponry is either short range or much too powerful to use on a planet unless exterminatus has been declared. The rest is fairly inaccurate. Drop pods filled with melta bombs might do something. They're guided.
TehOrkyMan 9 months ago
@Scarletraven87 You're right. Orbital bombardment probably is a more economical and efficient means of bringing massive firepower into the field. But one of the biggest impediments to that is that any time the Imperium fields war ships to a battle it is in response to the enemy having their own warships in the area. It is very difficult for a warship to provide ground support when it's fighting another warship. And air cover can be shot down or suppressed. Thus, the titans were born.

I don't know what is the weirder part of the WH40K universe, the numerous cases of hand-to-hand combat being more effective than guns, or that this bunch of pyschos were able to gain technological monopoly when they sound like the have the least common sense of anybody in the Imperium, and that's saying something.

dragonstormx 11 months ago
@dragonstormx Problem is that when you invent new tech there is a risk of Chaos getting involved. Either Tzeentch or Slaanesh subvert you. There is even a story about a Guardsman who modded his lasgun so it would fire faster.... and he ended up with a Daemon lasgun after he accidentally drew the Khorne symbol on it.
Plus new tech might destabilize the Imperium and lead to another civil war.
Significantpower 11 months ago
@Significantpower
Okay, if the Chaos gods can do stuff like that then I'm officially convinced that they are actively sabotaging every effort made by anybody to defeat the Imperium, and why is it that a detail like that, and that stuff created in the warp not being able to exist outside, are never place where people new to the stuff can find them. And if something like that can happen, how is that the Imperium can even make simple repairs or weapon refits?
dragonstormx 11 months ago
@dragonstormx Belief has power in the 40k verse, and this includes belief in an entity like the Machine God. The Tech-Priests dogma is implied to keep their machines "pure". Its sorta like how Battle Sisters (despite not being psykers) can pull off minor miracles on the battlefield.

i don't think an adeptus mechanicus codex would be cool
fluffwise having spacemarines playable is wierd, as they have less than one spacemarine per every imperial world, they are so rare most have only heard of them, some believing they are urban legends.
now AM are by far fewer, residing on only one small planet at the core of the imperium. their primary purpose isn't to go to war at all, but to supply the imperial fleets.

Makkovar 1 year ago 22
@Makkovar Is it true that Imperium:Roman Empire::Mechanicum:Israel? The Adeptus Mechanicus seems to combine Greek knowledge and the weirdly different, yet allied religion of the Jews. The medieval Christian massess considered Jews to be exceptionally well-versed in esoteric knowledge, which applies to the Mechanicum. Google "Jewish Magic and Superstition". On a different note, am I the only one who thinks the image at 3:20 looks like the bigoted, traditional depiction of a Jew? :P

@Nopp3 you are right on all these points, however the adeptus mechanicus has mobilised for war in 40k lore. So a codex designed to represent this would be awesome (warlord titan as heavy support :) really sweet).

@Nopp3 mars had an empire of its own before the emperor. the symbol of the imperium is the two-headed eagle, symbolizing the fusion of the empire of earth and the adeptus mechanicus.
nactan 1 year ago
@Nopp3 It sadens me when people don't know of the glorious armies of the machine god.
Basically they are an empire within an empire, they produce warmateriell for both the imperium and themselves.
And they have armies, trust me. Huge armies, probably enough to kill of several space marine legions without even thinking about the losses.
Although in a straight up fight the mechanicus is much smaller than the imperium, which is why they are allied, mechanicus and the imperium.

keyking2 1 year ago
@Nopp3 Hey I know your comment on this video is old, but as a Space Marine player, I have to inform you, Space Marines are playable in the Table Top version because it is assumed the conflict has grown to such a scale where a company or even a full chapter of Space Marines was called together. This is why most Battle Missions and scenarios are meant to be based around great battles in 40k history. It's like the fact that the Necrons are allowed to use the C'tan, unlikely, but legal.
Snowman3496 1 year ago
@Snowman3496 the trouble I always find is reconciling the backstory for the Space Marines with their capabilities: the codex is filled with tales of their ability to shrug off impossible wounds, or they unnerring accuracy. All of that is blown to wind, of course, in tabletop, where mere bullets can kill them. I understand that it is all for the sake of the game mechanic, but it never does the fluff justice.

@Nopp3 at least learn the background fluff on AM before you comment on them. There are many many more AM personnel than Space Marines. Billions alone reside on mars. Not to mention the other millions of worlds they would be present on.
