Codex: Adeptus Mechanicus

The Adeptus Mechanicus fervently worships the Machine God of Mars, its robed priests overseeing the creation, maintenance, and preservation of Humanity's technological wonders through rituals and reverence for thousands of years. Tech-Priests, their leaders, have replaced their frail organic flesh with metallic augmentations, commanding armies to defend forge worlds and explore the galaxy for ancient archeotech.

Within the ranks of the Machine Cult are obedient cybernetic soldiers, formidable warrior robots, and battle servitors armed with esoteric weapons capable of obliterating enemies with irradiated ammunition or scorching energy torrents. Those who oppose the Omnissiah's divine works face the ruthless mechanical war machine, devoid of mercy and regret.

It includes rules for Adeptus Mechanicus armies in various game formats, such as narrative Crusade campaigns and Combat Patrol skirmishes.
