Blog Entries: 1  |  Dark Adeptus Yeah, I want them. Trouble is, I know nothing about them. So any pics, info, suggestions and such would be really appreciated. I would like to have a small force, but I've never even seen an army of them. Some help please!

Blog Entries: 4  | Ah... Try the novel of the same name "Dark Adeptus" by Ben Counter. Not much picture-wise, but the descriptions may help

| definitely super cool. it also means that incorporating war walky dudes is super fluff appropriate. tell us what you decide ! it would probably be challenging [and costly, of course...haha] but worth it in my opinion. rare, hard, or expensive armies always get more respect...from me at least :P

| Dark Mechanicus - Pretty much the same as the AdMech, but are baically behind the creation and invention of all daemon engines and most renegade vehicles, ie things like the Defiler, the Plaguereaper and Abaddons infamous flagship the Planet Killer. They maintain the chaos titans, vehicles, technology, ships, etc, etc. They are also just as political and in-fighting as the AdMech, if not more so. They are also one of the possible sources of where the Obliterator Virus came from. They don't use AI, as even tho they suffer none of the imperial restrictions, they can instead possess their creations with human souls or daemons. They take advantage of the choas powers as much as worship them. Some become more like sorceerers than mechanics. But yeah, there isn't much official about the Dark Adeptus out there really. Is would imagine Seige Of Vrakks part 1 & 2 will probably have a small amount at least.

Blog Entries: 1 | I'm just wondering if I could use a bunch of Defilers instead of Titans. I'm not rich, so multiple Titans are out of the question. Also, what would the main body of the army consist of? CSM?

Blog Entries: 4 | I'd think corrupted Tech Priests are a sort of semi-elite troops. Corrupted/enslaved menials, servitors, and corrupted skitarii would definitely be it.
