ThisisJimmy Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I was just wondering if anyone knows if the Dark Mechanicus has their own symbol that is different to the Adeptus Mechanicus'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Araziel Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 After a search through Google, all I could find was this - http://media.photobucket.com/image/dark%20...cus_symbol1.jpg Something tells me it may not be official, though. I could do with knowing this for when the detailing stage of my titan building comes to fruition. It could be a good thing though, gives us a chance to be creative.

Olis Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Considering they're allied to chaos I would presume it would be an amalgamation of the eight pointed star and the skull-cog, like in the picture. I'm under the impression that there is no official symbol for them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisisJimmy Posted January 21, 2012 Author Share Posted January 21, 2012 Cheers for that. It seems a bit of a shame that there is so little information on what could be an important group. Hopefully with the next Codex we see a bit more fluff about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miteyheroes Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I thought it was a chaos star with the divided skull in the middle... Not sure where I got that idea from though! Probably, given that they're a rather diverse group, they don't have a unified symbol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Araziel Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I imagine its more of a case of each traitor Legio having its own symbol, depending upon its allegiances. For example, an Imperator under Abbadon's command would have something like the above picture I linked, whereas a Titan under the command of the Thousand Sons would possibly have something more akin to the icon top you get in the CSM box, maybe with some freehand flames painted behind it. I'd say go nuts, and do whatever you want! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the damned artificer Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 The opus machina chaos star hybrid will definitely work, but no there's no official badge of office for the dark mechanicus :P I have decided to use the standard opus machina on my iron warriors and their dark admech allies but instead of painting it a split scheme I have chosen to go with an all black version to symbolize their departure from the imperial alliance thus definitively ending the schism (the belief that the emperor and omnissiah is two seperate entities or two facets of the same) as they proclaim the corpse emperor to be a fraud and have united under the same purpose. That's how I imagine it, feel free to adopt the same idea/theme if it appeals to you ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
