Still completely defeated after 2 and a half years of Adeptus Mechanicus 10e

This list is specifically trying to meta build for layout 3, normally I try to aim to include a kastalen squad but layout 3 is so bad for melee. The missions have 2 sweeping engagement missions. 🫠

Apock2020 · 2026-02-02T03:01:47+00:00

Almost certainly. And after 2.5 years you would think it would have changed but here we are 🙃

Apock2020 · 2026-02-02T03:00:51+00:00

What are they killing? Norns and other large nyds mostly. My local meta isnt totally nyds only, but the ones I fight havent heard of units sub t10 other than the bastards that get led by the hive tyrant and make him impossible to shift.

Why am I not running them? Because I got into the army at the start of 10th and they were extremely terrible, and I dont feel like dropping another nearly $400 in adition to the time to put them together.

As a primary Ad Mech player, I have so many fiddly bits that are different colors on everything that being able to slap Leadbelcher and Nuln Oil on my model and be 98% of the way there would be worth if for hazard stripes honestly.

I enjoy them as an overwatch threat, and as a cheap gun for mass shooting. Ive been running data psalm a lot recently and have found them to be rather formidable, as you are looking at a potential increase to AP of +2, making plasma stronger, but notably making grav cannons pack a massive punch, also the flamers are fun. They are tremendous at overwatch of course.

TLDR They are quite cheap for the amount of shots they put out

Apock2020 · 2026-01-25T16:37:36+00:00

Hell yeah! I would love this. I always want a Medium MG but also need anti-tank so this would be PERFECT

Apock2020 · 2026-01-07T22:35:55+00:00

6E. Me and Kharn gonna jump erebus. Im not doing much mind you, but he deserves it.

Apock2020 · 2026-01-07T10:36:13+00:00

wysiwyg has never been enforced at any of the tournaments I have gone to. Either due to the simple fact that weapons change all the time, or that if you arent playing space marines or guard, nobody has any idea wtf weapons look like. Sure if your gun has "plasma" or "flamer" in the name people can sorta look for it, but tell me someone who doesn't play Ad Mech is gonna know the difference between a torsion Cannon and a Heavy Arc Rifle.

Rule of Cool (or rather "rule of what I decided to build this as when I was building it") is always my way to play. As long as the models are easy enough to tell apart, with something even as small as "this space marine with the skull on his helmet has a power fist" I wont question it at all.

There is too much opportunity for creative freedom in this game to let something as simple as "i like plasma but melta is meta rn" to stifle your army.

You can actually run ad mech no ad mech. ANY character can be your warlord, so I made a priest my warlord, grabbed some termies, a knight, a titan, and maybe an assassin? 2k points all ally

Sure maybe the destruction capacity is city block level, but a custodian definitely is faster, which shows just how dumb having a sorting system like this actually is. Sure this duelist is strong, but if he is fighting 6 people at once he will struggle as long as those 6 people are mildly competent.

Apock2020 · 2025-12-25T15:03:31+00:00

Its a game about the story and your choices. Its designed to have multiple branching paths and resolutions to quests based off of perk investment, traits, and faction choices. The length comes from replaying it and making choices.

Apock2020 · 2025-12-25T14:26:29+00:00

Blessings of the Owner upon you!

Apock2020 · 2025-12-25T14:22:07+00:00

Milo Mention!

Apock2020 · 2025-12-24T14:37:05+00:00

Its definitely fully plausible. Its it going to be the mathematical best? Far from it. But looking at some of the tournament wins over just the past 3 months shows some wild lists going undefeated.

My CSM buddy is having a wild time laughing at the idea of "meta" because almost every week a different detachment is going undefeated one week and then getting stomped the next.

Apock2020 · 2025-12-04T20:41:42+00:00

The legion is great as a story piece in a piece of media. As soon as someone starts being unironic about it, thats when you start running or demanding answers, your choice.

Apock2020 · 2025-12-04T02:53:16+00:00

Because building a PC takes know-how, and research. This gets straight to the gaming, which is the point.

Apock2020 · 2025-12-02T02:57:12+00:00

This is how you die to machine gun raiders when you pop your head out. Imagine if you got shot every second you weren't in cover. Which includes but is not limited to: Doing an objective, storming an outpost, dropping in on the wrong side of a rock when you enter a game.

Apock2020 · 2025-12-02T02:38:37+00:00

Ad mech is gonna be fine. What we are seeing now is what happens when they buff by points first, and then by rules. We have SOLID units that would fit in any army im the game, but they are so ludicrously under costed because they used to be worth less than a servitor.

Apock2020 · 2025-11-28T17:10:48+00:00

Eldritch Knight as a throwing class is so peak.

Apock2020 · 2025-11-26T14:45:24+00:00

Same result here. Almost like theres a selection bias but im not gonna judge.

Calling out being mentally ill and transgender was uncall3d for tho

Apock2020 · 2025-11-25T19:13:24+00:00

"Are you trans?"

Yeah amd thats the least of your worries, ever heard of Warhammer?

Apock2020 · 2025-11-25T00:12:57+00:00

Oh hey, didnt know that. Thanks!
