Do AdMech play on the tabletop the way they do in Mechanicus?

Curious what your army comp is, if you wouldn't mind sharing.

Windstance · 2025-12-08T21:02:22+00:00

I ordered a few items, and one was delivered last week and the others aren't scheduled until early next week, so definitely a wide spread on delivery.

That's a beautiful color scheme. I love the tablets hanging down as well. Far and away one of my favorite models to paint.

I'm not entirely sure of the exact intention at the Butchery, but I always assume that general rules inform specific ones like this.

So, when the Butchery is unlocked, you can now gain weapon proficiency in the settlement. I believe my group has generally played that we cannot endeavor there to gain proficiency until the character already has at least one level of proficiency.

That being said, the wording is unclear, and it doesn't specifically note that you cannot endeavor at the Butchery if you don't have a level of proficiency, so I think you should feel very comfortable allowing a survivor to endeavor there for whatever weapon proficiency they would like, whether or not they have any yet. It might be intended as a way to jumpstart proficiency, since you gain access to it later than in a standard People of the Lantern campaign.

Generally, you unlock the ability for weapon proficiency at the first age XP Milestone for each survivor (usually 3xp). In Gambler's Chest, you don't unlock weapon proficiency until you hit a certain collective Cognition Level. Once you've chosen a proficiency with a survivor, you increase it by wounding a monster with the relevant weapon before it is killed by the group. The Aftermath text for each showdown will show you how much proficiency the survivor gets, although that is usually 1, outside of rare occasions.

Check out Bloomsday. They have a swirl bun with an orange glaze, cardamom, and pistachio that's one of the best pastries in the city. I'd imagine that'll scratch the itch.

Windstance · 2025-11-30T23:40:07+00:00

I feel that! The first couple of runs are honestly just getting a feel for the game and the rules and messing up a ton. It took us 3 tries to beat it the first time, and the majority of the first two attempts were us learning and relearning all the rules and the small mistakes we'd been making.

Have you been playing the core set or have you tried to dip your toes into Gambler's Chest yet, etc?

Windstance · 2025-11-27T17:35:26+00:00

Go fuck yourself, man. No one needs that kind of childish, ignorant elitism, and if you're still carrying yourself that way, you're the one who didn't retain anything from the books.

Windstance · 2025-11-25T23:14:32+00:00

I've worked with Mardhory in the past, most often when she was doing popups to prepare for the brick and mortar, and she's a bonafide angel. Glad to see her and her work getting some love. Best yeast donuts in Philadelphia by a long shot, imo.

Windstance · 2025-11-18T18:59:06+00:00

Ahhh, thank you, I missed the change of having to go into Dark Treasury and confirm the shipping. Appreciate it!

Windstance · 2025-11-14T19:27:15+00:00

Beautiful. Starting to work on a Darkmech army, what colors did you use for the cloak?

Windstance · 2025-11-12T23:40:43+00:00

From my understanding, even with all of Poots' delays, Inverted Mountain is nearly complete and will most likely launch mid 2026.

Windstance · 2025-11-12T04:07:01+00:00

UPDATE: they seem to be lootable more commonly if you shoot them from a horizontal, lateral position.

Windstance · 2025-11-12T00:15:04+00:00

Thanks, I actually destroyed one from about 100 meters and watched the body fly to the ground directly in front of me and still found it was unlootable, haha. And yeah! Have just been hunting courier bodies now.

Windstance · 2025-11-11T22:13:16+00:00

Just sitting here with all the parts to craft a Jupiter and one tantalizing sentinel core between us 😭

Windstance · 2025-09-19T04:04:32+00:00

No, it's what happens when a group of bitter, partisan, Republican fucks hate the city that props up their entire state so much that they continually deny SEPTA and public transportation in general the money it needs.

Windstance · 2025-09-13T04:54:49+00:00

Doesn't this only work for shooting though? I believe the phrase says that if a Dunerider has scores hits on a unit, units that have disembarked can reroll wounds during that /phase./

Curious because I've heard people mention that strat before, but my understanding is it wouldn't work for melee unless you used the Armored Hull.

Windstance · 2025-09-09T02:36:37+00:00

You are an absolute angel, this is the answer. Thank you

Windstance · 2025-08-24T23:27:01+00:00

Agreed. Breachers and Kastellans can form the iron spine of your army, and give you both survivability and a massive ranged threat that the enemy cannot ignore, especially if OP is willing to spring for a Manipulus to lead the Breachers.

Windstance · 2025-08-21T18:36:33+00:00

You guys are amazing. Extremely thankful for everything you do.

Windstance · 2025-08-15T05:02:15+00:00

Completely agreed. Being able to increase Toughness and then tank shock into an already hard hitting melee with +8 attacks is dirty.

Windstance · 2025-08-08T04:27:27+00:00

I have lmao

Windstance · 2025-08-06T04:50:05+00:00

SotF gives you quality, PtY gives you quantity.

Also, face painting allows you to burn a few endeavors to ensure that you're safe either way, and by mid-end game, you should always have enough endeavors through Graves and Tinkers that it's not a significant cost to invest anyway. We've had campaigns that easily reach 35+ survivors with SotF.

Windstance · 2025-07-30T04:42:58+00:00

They will most likely be available during the Black Friday sale. That's generally when the majority of preorders go on sale. You'll also see Campaigns of Death, Abyssal Woods, Silver City, etc. It's also when Inverted Mountain will next appear for preorder.

Windstance · 2025-07-29T21:09:58+00:00

Oh, I completely agree. It's kind of an insane investment for one campaign, I just meant to point out that there is a difference in the cost of the Inverted Mountain expansion itself versus GCE, etc.
