Hello everyone! This is a list to play a Mechanicum Taghmata army that I put together with the help of other community members on the Tactical Command Discord server. It is made with existing Legions Imperialis model kits in mind, although particular units like Castellax and Vorax are -- as of now -- assumed to be one model per base. Ideas were taken from the AU30k Mechanicum and Knight Household lists as well as the Skitarii Legion list in the Tournament Pack.

This list has not yet been playtested, which is why it is currently an Experimental list. The goal is to eventually get it to an Approved status. Of course, feedback, advice, and contributions are very much appreciated. I just want to help bring more model collections and fun to the table by posting and developing this army. Thank you for your interest and to all those who helped out in the Discord.

Hello again! Just thought I'd post a new version of 0.0.4 as a small update to see what people think about it. Here are the changes I made:

- Fixed some typos and reworded a few things
- The Cortex Controller now works both from inside and outside vehicles
- Removed the Marauder Bomber because it is unclear whether the Mechanicum utilized them in the lore, and the list already has several template weapons anyway
- Replaced the Heavy Bolters on the Sagitarii and Ulator with Volkite Culverins that face to the left, right, and back
- Buffed the missile weapon on the Aktaeus to 4 shots

You can see the new list for yourself by viewing the PDF attached to this comment. I also threw together the following 3000 point list just for fun:

- Taghmata Formations:
-- 6 Castellax, 2 Tech Priest Auxilia (250)
--- Taghmata Upgrades:
---- Magos, Archmagos Prime on Abeyant (100)
---- Thanatar-Calix x2 (150)
---- Domitar x2 (150)
-- 4 Thallax (200)
--- Taghmata Upgrades:
---- Transport x2 (150)
- Ordinatus Formations:
-- Ordinatus Sagittar (175)
- Taghmata Support Formations:
-- 4 Myrmidon Destructor (250)
--- Taghmata Upgrades:
---- Vultarax x2 (100)
-- 4 Myrmidon Secutor (250)
--- Taghmata Upgrades:
---- Transport x2 (150)
---- Arlatax x2 (150)
---- Magos, Magos Dominus (50)
-- 2 Avenger Strike Fighters (200)
-- 4 Krios Battle Tanks (250)
- Mechanicum Allies
-- 3 Knight-Moirax (150)
-- 2 Cerastus Knight-Atropos (275)

Let me know how your list building goes! Thank you again for your interest.

Hello! Here's a quick update before the weekend to make some fixes and more significant changes than the previous version of 0.0.4. Let me know what you guys think and how this plays if anyone does any playtesting.

v0.0.4b
- Fixed some typos
- Added Tunneler to the Ordinatus Aktaeus as it should have been there before
- Reduced the cost of the Triaros Armoured Conveyor to 50 points
- Nerfed the Acastus Knight-Asterius; its Volkite Culverins are now FwA
- Reduced the base costs of the Adsecularis Tech-Thrall Covenant and Thallax Cohort to 175 points
- Increased the range of the Plasma Mortar on the Thanatar-Cavas to 45cm
- Removed D from several unit weapon profiles: Shock Ram (replaced with EA+1), all Volkite weapons, Karacnos Mortar Battery
- Gave the Karacnos Mortar Battery BP2 and reduced the Karacnos Assault Tank Squadron to 2 units and 225 points
- Changed the Krios Squadron to 3 units and 175 points

The last two point reductions were made to make the Karacnos and Krios easier to fit into lists and make it possible to create more formations from one plastic kit. I was also advised to remove D from several weapons. Attached to this post is the list to check out the changes for yourself. Like last time, I also wrote up a list -- but for a 1000-point game of Minigeddon!

- Taghmata Formations
-- 4 Thallax (175)
--- Taghmata Upgrades
---- 2 Vultarax (100)
- Ordinatus Minoris Formations
-- 1 Ordinatus Ulator (150)
- Taghmata Support Formations
-- 4 Myrmidon Secutor (250)
--- Taghmata Upgrades
---- 0-1 Archmagos Prime (75)
---- 2 Transport (100)
---- 2 Arlatax (150)

I hope you get a lot of fun out of this arrmy. Have a great weekend, and thank you again for your interest!

Edit 1: Here's another 1000-point Minigeddon list I just whipped up.

- Taghmata Formations
-- 4 Thallax (175)
- Taghmata Support Formations
-- 4 Myrmidon Destructor (250)
--- Taghmata Upgrades
---- 0-1 Archmagos Prime (75)
---- 3 Thanatar-Cavas (225)
- Mechanicum Allies
-- 2 Cerastus Knight-Atropos (275)
