Greetings fellow disciples of the Machine God!

Ever since mid-3rd edition i've wanted to build my own AdMech army using borrowed rules and converted models. Ive already made some custom
Cybernetica models based on a Nemesis Dreadknight and Defiler, but could never figure out which ruleset to settle on.

Last year GW decided to save me a lot of time, money, and effort, and gave us all the Cult Mechanicus and Skitarii Codices. I have been very busy
this last year between school (final semester--woohoo!), work, and my now-neglected Chaos army. One thing i have had time to do however is plan
out my eventual AdMech army (honestly ive been planning it since the codices dropped).

Because i love all things Mechanicus almost as much as i love Chaos (still sticking with loyalist AdMech though), i immediately gravitated towards
the War Convocation formation, since it has both major AdMech factions in it's composition. I already own 1 Tech-Priest Dominus, 3 Kataphron, and
one Onager, and both Codices (+the WarConvo WD) but thats it so far.

Here's my first draft to be posted for your review. Please let know what you think so far.

With the skitarii the walkers with the lances can put out a pretty hefty number on hits on invis units if you pop the +3 strength for the skitarii and you could make the dunecrawlers set up to be AA as you are lacking it otherwise


Yeah, I've been debating whether or not to take Ironstrider Balistarii or Sydonian Dragoons. I've started leaning towards the Dragoons too, so that's cool.

If i go with Icarus array Onagers, will losing the Neutron lasers hurt my anti-heavy too much? How about the fact that i have 2 Onagers? Will i only need one if i go with the Icarus array? How effective are the Icarus Onagers against things that aren't skimmers/flyers?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703807/8930614.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703807/8930614.page GMT [1850] - AdMech - War Convocation

Well hitting on 6's don't help but admech already have loads of ways of bringing in anti heavy in the form of grav haywire etc and an ususpecting opponent will not expect you to play +3 strength meaning that even infiltrators will put hurt on walkers so playing it right will mean hopefully you catch your opponents vehicles unscathed ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703807/8931025.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703807/8931025.page GMT
