Deployed onto the battlefield as elite shock troops or the bodyguards of their magos overseers, Mechanicum Scyllax Guardian-automata have been adapted with a wide variety of mechadendrites and servo-arms for dissecting living matter with murderous speed. With an armoured carapace as durable as Legiones Astartes battle plate and powered by a rad furnace which can vent debilitating radiation at will, the Scyllax Guardian-automata are a force to be truly feared on the battlefield.

The Mechanicum Scyllax Guardian-automata Covenant consists of four Scyllax Guardian-automata, each armed with a Scyllax bolter and various interchangeable claws and mechadendrites forming a mechadendrite combat array. Scyllax Guardian-automata Covenants can be taken in Mechanicum armies in Horus Heresy games and experimental rules for this unit are available to [URL="http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/S/scyllax.pdf"]download HERE[/URL].

It is available to pre-order now for despatch from Friday 27th March.

Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Mechanicum Scyllax Guardian-automata are. You have to see them for yourself.

No you can be told, in fact i will sum them up in one word "meh"

everything they do is done better by something else for the points. tech thralls are a better tar pit, thallax and castellax are better in close combat and shooting. Maybe there a good generalist unit but i find even that hard to swallow

Sadface.

On the upside, I don't play 30k, so I don't really give a tinker's cuss what they may or not do in game.

They do look somewhat like sentinels from the matrix though, which was the point I was so hilariously making.

Maybe you don't remember the Matrix though, it was an M2.999 movie after all.

Or perhaps you took the blue pill.

they look awesome and can have S6 AP2 CC hits so not too bad for busting vehicles, their bolters are nice against auxillia too

I love them! They are exactly the kind of thing I love about the mechanicum - the weirdness, the trailing cables and they make you wonder how much of them is organic. I might actually buy a squad of these for my void dragon cult. I hope the 40k mechanicum takes more influence from these sort of units rather than the tech thralls and robotic walkers as those don't appeal to me.

EDIT : Oh wow, they are a troops choice! Perfect! Thanks FW

Sadface.

[Wolfshade]

Mmm v ery nice

[Mr Mystery]

-1T on enemy units locked in combat is tasty.

All those fiddly bits look like a nightmare to put together
