Adeptus Mechanicus: Tech-Priest Manipulus

Adeptus Mechanicus Tech-Priest Manipulus

The bodies of the Tech-Priest Manipulus are bloated with bizarre machinery. They hover across the battlefield, bolstering nearby troops and unleashing vicious energy.

The ruling castes of the Adeptus Mechanicus are the Tech-Priests – robed fanatics whose flesh is, over time, replaced with bionic implants. These tech-scholars bear a bewildering array of titles, each specialising in arcane and esoteric lore and upholding it with religious fervour. Within the spherical core-implant of a Tech-Priest Manipulus hides a galvanic cell from which he can discharge a powerful surge of divine motive force – the Current of All Life. Tech-Priests Manipulus avidly seek new sources of power, which they drain with their mechadendrites. Crackling with charge, they feed energy to the servants of the Machine God and the holy wargear they carry. The electro-positron of the Tech-Priests Manipulus can overload servo-motors, supercharge the power cells of weapons, and invigorate cerebral cores. Saturated with the raw energy of the Machine God, mortal warriors and their sacred engines spread his praises as they strike down heretics.

The Tech-Priest Manipulus miniature carries an Omnissian Staff and can use either an infantry-shredding transonic cannon or an armour-piercing magnarail lance as a ranged weapon. The Manipulus is also equipped with a mechadendrite harness, which he can use to perform repairs on the battlefield – or pinch his enemies if they get too close!

This kit contains 22 plastic components and comes with a Citadel 50mm Round Base.
