New Dakka member from Worcester, England introducing himself here. Got into the 40k hobby at the young age of 11, played for a few years and quit. Had a 10 year or so hiatus and got back into the hobby almost a year ago now. Got back into it with AdMech and just now starting up my Salamanders force

Welcome to Dakka

Hi,

Welcome to Dakka

Hello =)

How you finding AdMech? - I like the look of them but not sure how many options they actually have to build a diverse force?

I'm really enjoying them so far but yeah I do find myself fielding a lot of the same units so diversity can be somewhat lacking. When playing casually I find that there is enough variance with them as they have a fair few units when both codices are combined. Sometimes when I play though, even though it's a casual and friendly match, people in my local meta like to run more competitive style lists, this is when I find that diversity is somewhat lacking with them as I find myself purely limited to Vanguard, Dunecrawlers, Peltasts (The FW unit) and Dragoons/Balistarii for Skitarii and Tech-Priests, Destroyers and Kastellans for Cult Mech.

Although as I have only played with the one force since getting back into the hobby I can't really say how that amount of variety with units holds in comparison to other armies. 8 Solid units could be a poor number or a decent one for all I know.

I've heard rumours that in the next Imperial Armour update that 30k Mechanicum units may be introduced but I have no idea really how much stock I should place in that.

In that case ill wait to see what is in the next IA book ... and then may start a small force

Not sure id ever collect a huge amount of them but i do think they look very cool!
