Well, i have been working on my Ad. Mech army for awhile now and I figured, the Ad. Mech build everything to perfectly fit a purpose. So, why wouldn't they do that with their soldiers too. So have their HtH units better Ws but low to none Bs, and other way around for their rifle support etc. What do you guys think, this seems like a good concept.

ALSO:: This isn't a counts as, i'm building a mini-dex for this army, if i want it to count as i'll figure it out later.

IMO, it's easier if you start with a "counts as" army (I suggest WH or WH/IG) simply so that you can throw down at any time.

IIRC, GW Fluff says AdMech Skittari would be kind of a cross between Stormtroopers and Carapace Guardsmen in terms of design / capability.

I think you could do a lot with the WH book as the base, add Inducted Guard, and possibly take DH allies (i.e. HtH Termies).

I look forward to see your AM models ... If ever I were to make a "good" army of any kind, it would be adeptus mechanicus. None others have received a second thought.

Well, I have finally chosen the base model for some heavy support. I'm going to be using fantasy Ogres, the cannon guys.
