Avernites do have dogs. They wouldn't survive out in the wildlife but they make for good additional home defence and companionship. Before phase cats, we also had cat-like creatures which served the same purpose.You know am I the only who feels that the common Avernite lacks dogs?
What @3man75 said, and there are normal dogs and other things still running around.You know am I the only who feels that the common Avernite lacks dogs? It's a travesty!! I mean what is a man without man's best friend. I kid, still though how about next turn we research hell jackals to see if they are tamable.
What we need is to domesticate hell jackles or whatever canine warp beast Avernus has we can name Fido. Actually could we domesticate hell jackals I mean we did with phase tigers and have plans for a kraken Navy.What @3man75 said, and there are normal dogs and other things still running around.
It gives us a functional blue navy, a way to further project our power ie. away from our cities and civilians. And there's no guarantee that the Sirens will remain friendly forever. The next Queen might be belligerent.Kraken Navy? The cyborgs maybe but..why do we need that again? The sirens are cool with us already so who cares abiut the water. We have space to deal with ya know.
That'd be very difficult what with their rage aura. Maybe with tons of study but still...Also with the hell jackals..Imagine if they become the d-dog for our new elite operatives? My omakes of a cold killer with a badass familiar would come out so fast. An itd be shit too because you know, details.
I think all Native born Avernites are cold killers.Kraken Navy? The cyborgs maybe but..why do we need that again? The sirens are cool with us already so who cares abiut the water. We have space to deal with ya know.

I support the more pets bill.
Still though judging by the MASSIVE amount of creatures we have not researched yet we still have countless new psyker abilities to explore and animals to possibly add to our armies. To those who are curiose and do not know where to see all the unresearched creatures look at the biologis section on the adeptus mechanicus sheet
I've had a thought: given how much emphasis the Mechanicus puts on tradition, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the maintenance rituals they do are tainted by the Abomination now. If we get Saint Lin to look through the Mechanicus rituals and point out all the tainted ones, the Mechanicus might have no recourse but to innovate new methods to perform maintenance lest all their holy tech start breaking down left and right.
This could be the ammunition we need to get the Mechanicus to open itself up to progressive thought.
The intent is what matters here. Yes the maintenance ritual is set out in a way that makes sense from the POV of a mechanic, but underlying the whole thing is the mind of a dogmatic religious drone following the previously set out ways because that's what tradition demands of it. Doesn't matter if method B produces the same result as method A, it's method A or death because tradition says use A, not B.
That's the problem I'm getting at here: because legions of lower techpriests/enginseers (who are made to memorize maintenance rituals without true understanding of the machinery) have been following the same ancient technical manuals and religious manuscripts of the archmagos that reverse-engineered stuff, I believe that a lot of their tried and true rituals have become tainted by the Abomination.
EDIT: What are your thoughts on this, @durin?
they are less susceptible then the old Imperial Church but are still susceptible@durin: Sorry for poking you so many times durin, but I am very curious about your stance on the Mechanicus' susceptibility to the Abomination and your thoughts on my view:
1. useless in some situations incredibly useful in others@durin
1. How useful would a black ops assassins Psyker unit be.
2. How much fire power does Xavier have available now.
What kind of assassin do you mean? A professional assassin, a death cult assassin, an Arbites assassin, an Inquisitorial assassin, an Imperial Assassin, or something else?
That's an extremely small reassurance after the majority of the old Imperial Church turned to the Abomination.they are less susceptible then the old Imperial Church but are still susceptible
If only we could get them.
not easily, attempting such a thing would definitely increase Mechanicus unrestWhat do Saint Lin and Fabricator-General Scott think about having Saint Lin go through the Mechanicus rituals for Chaos corruption? There must be some way to make it palatable for the Mechanicus at large, no?
Would it be worth it?not easily, attempting such a thing would definitely increase Mechanicus unrest
Well I do kinda like the idea of a Psyker assassin Temple. I just put the word assassin in cause i felt like like it fits well with the words black ops. Though making a Psyker assassins Temple might be very useful but we have no idea of how to make even a normal one much less one that has never existed before.What kind of assassin do you mean? A professional assassin, a death cult assassin, an Arbites assassin, an Inquisitorial assassin, an Imperial Assassin, or something else?
Even so, it'd be worth it to close all possible avenues of Chaos corruption.not easily, attempting such a thing would definitely increase Mechanicus unrest
Unless it kick starts the Mechanicus Civil War, yes. It's fucking Chaos.
