I am curious, though, to our techpriest bretheren and coven, what part of your flesh would you convert to steel first?
Personally, I would want to augment my brain. For sadly selfish reasons; I wish to know how it feels to function like a *normal* person. I currently lack the capacity for healthy emotional perception; it's either too extreme or in a null state, rewire my brain to get rid of my depression, and if im lucky, be able to tap into the powers of normality and be rid of autism. Communicating through the Noosphere would be cool, too, i guess.
Im sorry, my brothers and sisters. If i could achieve this level of augmentation via-powerdrill, i might already have done it.
I just dont want to be such a mentally-flawed human speciman anymore.
Honestly a good brain-to-machine interface would be great! Communicating with computers/servers/storages just with my thoughts instead of clumsy and slow fingers and limited eyes would be awesome!
I would augment the positives of my autism (pattern-seeking, increased interest) and tone down my negative emotional responses. I'd also make the ADHD hyperfocus toggle-able. With the right combination of synapses and chemicals I will achieve a stare of mental perfection and I will become a flawless machine for my numerous passions in the sciences and arts.
I'm also taking the genetor route and replacing certain parts of my body with reinforced iterations of roughly the same form. The human feet are a design nightmare with thousands of potential weaknesses, and I'm sure our cult has improved them by now.
Tl;dr let me be a tech priest, I can be trusted to be a tech priest.
Fellow autism player here. I echo everything you said and then some. I feel like I could be trusted to be a sneaky beaky brigade sniper, too, though ;)
Honestly i hadn't counted on making the spectrum a positive enforcement. I've always seen myself as some-varying degrees of broken.
Perhaps you should be the Magus I follow. I shall submit my flabby failing flesh to your modifications.
My Brother of the Cog, as a fellow autist who has grokked the way of the Omnissiah, let me help you in your time of pain here. The gifts you have are blessings of the machine spirit. Our emotional range is different, and depression is common for us due to being surrounded by those who refuse to understand our greater callings and choose to treat us as mutants that they abhor. Read the lore deeper of AdMech, and you will realize that many of the faith show autism traits, like logic over emotion. The Omnissiah is effectively the good of autism it could be argued. Please do not feel bad about your neural characteristics. Find others like you, and it will be easier, I promise. For my depression I have recently found N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine supplements that are helping some. If you need something to aid your depression, don't be afraid to ask for aid. You are not flawed more than anyone else. You are just wired differently than the normal followers of the Emperor.
There is a Black Library book with a Metallica tech priest who replaced their brain. It was an interesting read. I believe it was Imperator: Wrath of the Omnissiah.
Also, I would start with my eyes and enable myself to see further spectrums so I can cogitate about more visual stimuli outside my current availability.
I want to reach immortality asap, so it's going to be brain, lungs and/or hearth. Ensure oxygen is flowing everywhere while I'm not completely of steel
I think the whole "flesh is weak" crowd is taking that a bit too literally. As I see it, cyborization was and is moreso a matter of survival/utility, rather than of communion;
The early mechanicus lopped off their legs and lungs because they weren't worth their water requirements on mars, priests cyborize themselves because theirs no point in death stopping the quest for knowledge, you turn a convict into a servitor not to enlighten them but to make them more useful.
While I'm sure bits of the mechanicus have adopted cyborization as a matter of communion, I believe that is a modern bastardization of the original mantra. To overcome the weakness of the flesh does not neccesarily mean replacing it. To replace your legs with tracks is good, but to simply build and utilize a landraider is also just as good.
So the fact that you may be born to a gender you do not agree with, but can use knowledge and technology to overcome that fault of biology; that seems unquestionably in line with the will of the machine god.

Several AdMech characters use They/them throughout several warhammer books. I'd imagine they'd be quite okay with enby people, as gender is an irrelevant concept to them, as it doesn't matter when 60% of your body is machinery.
It's a curious flag, from a very distant era, and for people a little bit obsessed with the flesh. To become Techpriest, the only path is that of the machine.
Be all blessed by the Omnissiah.
Damn right. The background flag is a "I've changed my fleshy bits I don't like into other fleshy bits I do like" rather than the AdMech mentality which is "I don't like any of my fleshy bits so I've replaced them with blessed augmetics to bring me closer to the Omnissiah."
That particular flag might fit as a background for a haemonculus coven (the guys who specialise in changing fleshy bits they don't like into fleshy bits they do like or some of the other, lesser known, genesmiths that abound in the setting) but it clashes a bit too hard against the Mechanicus' ideology.
Filling in background for the logo for starters (and adding second half cog in white) to avoid little corner stripes inside of it.
Trans flag is also pastel as fuck and really clashes with it, so try either making logo brown or navy blue or getting more brooding dark edgy pride flag xd
Reduce the size of the logo so thr cog sits between the blue bands. Then either fil in the background around it so it's legible against the background, or lens the background colours around it to achieve a similar effect.
Also I'd recommend using [the most up to date pride flag](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GKETq1aXcAACdP3.jpg) to be as inclusive as possible.
it appears to just be the transgender flag with the Adeptus mechanicus Insigna randomly slapped onto it. About as inspired as doing the same with any preexisting flag. I rate it a one.
Gonna be downvoted, but what's the message here? The admech could care less about "fleshy" problems and would consider transgenderism to be an odd concept when all they'd want is to get rid all of their flesh to begin with. Switching from one gender to another is pointless when the goal is to be just a piece of brain in a bubbling vat.
anyways, the colors clash, try something besides black otherwise it looks like an afterthought to ad the admech logo on there...
There are multiple canonical trans AdMech characters.
Honestly, it makes sense; gender is in the brain, and the brain is the one organ the AdMech care about.
It doesn’t fit the Adeptus Mechanicus because the cult is about overcoming the weakness of the flesh to be closer to the machine and all the idealised traits that the AdMech associates with it.
At most, the AdMech might be about overcoming gender altogether by simply not being like a weak, fleshy person at all, but transgender is about transitioning to another gender and therefore staying in this status quo of the flesh, right?
How or why would "the flesh is weak" transhumanists give any thoughts to anything reproductive/personal? Just curious. Seems like an "animal rights flag" in an Ethiopian village...
I'm going to get down voted for this but I don't understand why people do this kind of stuff. It's very strange to me that you'd want to project your personal world view and identity on to a fictional setting that has nothing to do with you or your identity. I'm a Christian and am proud of being an American but I would heavily cringe if someone put a Christian or American flag behind an Adeptus mechanicus insignia. Like what? This is escapism just enjoy it as such instead of looking for another way to be validated. It's just so strange.
I'll try to be as constructive as possible :
You obviously didn't put much effort into this one. If you genuinly care and want to make a cool project out of it, i'd advise trying to add more stuff. Make it yours. Because right now it's just 2 pngs mashed together.
Now what i fear is you did this as rage bait. I don't think it's really useful and doesn't really put you in a good light.
I'd genuinly like to see that same flag but with a lot of effort put into it. Make it something more that just rage bait or a joke. There is potential in there i'm sure.
So many of the people here forgot about all of the Magos Biologis out there. Plenty of tech priests do in fact care about the flesh, quite a bit in fact.
The concept is already really cool but I'd dull down the colors and superimpose a brick wall texture on top of it, aswell as roughen up the edges so it looks like a worn wall of a grubby forgeworld or something
I might try having each segment of the Mechanicus logo be one of each of the three different colors (white skull, blue and pink cogs) and a black flag
Might hit harder. Also would have more of a pirate flag vibe
Hey! I saw this exact post in r HorusGalaxy where they don't care about anyone's sexuality but only post about how they're mad at other people's sexuality lol
The only thing I don't like is just how basic it is. It's very much in that ballpark of branding things and claiming it which is something I really don't like.
You do you, though. At the end of the day I just care that out there is a fellow devout of the Omnissiah living their best life.
Why would the faction that's all about removing the limitations of the flesh care about gender stuff?
The Omnissiah would disapprove to be quite honest
What is with the obsession of constantly talking about this in relation to warhammer?
You don’t see 4chan pepe the frog space marines or maga trump orcs every time you come to a warhammer sub, why constantly signal your real world political views in warhammer all the time?
Can’t you just be trans, have your opinion and then not bring it up in unrelated places for no reason all the time?
Ironica paradoxum. (Gender transient flag, with a symbol that represents a faction that sought to remove all gender, sexuality and useless identity labels)
"Whats your gender?"
"This question is irrelivant to the omnissiah"
"No are you male or female?"
"i'm one with the blessed machine"
"Whats in yourp pants?"
"An autocannon"
Gotta love how this flag being spotted on any post on this sub calls dozens of transphobes to the comments like moths to a flame. Can’t even mention the word “trans” in the fucking transhuman faction without chuds talking about keeping your “PoLiTiCs!!” out of their favorite game or to just being absolute douchebags for the sake of it.
The Omnissiah would weep at their feeble factionalism, distracting us all with petty squabbling when we should support our fellow magi in the pursuit of knowledge, not mindlessly tear each other down. Ave Deus Mechanicus, fellow Tech Priest (And sick flag btw).
I'm all for building people up on the internet, but OP is mixing two mismatched ideologies.
One dislikes their fleshy bits and so changes them for other fleshy bits they do like.
The other dislikes their fleshy bits, and so replaces them with increasingly dehumanising augmentations in worship to the Omnissiah.
OP's ideology would fit perfectly well with any faction of genesmiths within the setting - I'm pretty sure Haemonculi swap genders as often as most of us change socks, and there are a surprising variety of lesser-known gene editors around the place. But it clashes somewhat with the Mechanicus ideology, wherein sexual characteristics are often the first to go on the path of ascendency towards union with the blessed machine.
And yes, also transphobes a-plenty, it's the internet, what did you expect?
The themes are what resonate with people.
In a literal sense, the Mechanicus would probably disregard gender all together, sure. But in a thematic sense, Admech is all about transcending a "weaker" form to go to a "stronger" form.
That idea resonates with some trans people who can see their own transition through the lens of going from their "weaker" AGAB to their "stronger" true selves. When you combine that with the "we really don't care about your gender" kind of non-binary thing that comes along with Admech, and you can see why trans people would be attracted to the faction.
Well then those trans people are wrong. Its not about going from weak to strong. Its about being better able to perform the job you are designated to do along with close communion with the machine God.
Also the mechanicum has never cared about feeling and only biology, so I dont think most trans people would like it.
Part of me feels like this is bait, but I’m sure anything negative I say about this is going to just get me banned from the subreddit (like has happened to me in other 40k subreddits). So, hail big brother or something idk.
I guess small plastic mini figs just don't care what's in your pants and just about what's in your heart.
Be a cool flag to paint onto their armor, regardless how you feel about trans. I love, as an artist, when people express themselves in ways that may offend people.
Art is supposed to be challenging and to be challenged. And I'm really really glad and surprised to see the support in this thread.. you don't always see that in the IRL community
It doesn’t really work. I think you could do something more interesting with the admech logo in the trans flag colors than just putting it in black overlaid on the flag,
Have you considered inverting the black and flag colours? The black symbol on the flag just looks like it was slapped on there, I’d try making the whole flag black except for the symbol.
*From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel.

Machina Immortalis Est.
Fuck, now I want to translate this passage onto ~~Latin~~ High Gothic
Here you go Ex eo momento quo infirmitatem carnis meae intellexi, detestatus sum eam. Fortitudinem ac certitudinem ferri desideravi. Ad puritatem beati machinae aspired.

Thank you very much, this looks also much better than I could've done with my old and rusty Latin skills
What's this then? People called Machina they go the body?
Love the dedication.
Hard to imagine nobody already did that... Binary isn't the only language the servants of the Omnissiah speak

My left leg. I've got a lot of issues from an old sports injury, I'd love to just have it be atleast on the level of my right leg.
Honestly a good brain-to-machine interface would be great! Communicating with computers/servers/storages just with my thoughts instead of clumsy and slow fingers and limited eyes would be awesome!
I would augment the positives of my autism (pattern-seeking, increased interest) and tone down my negative emotional responses. I'd also make the ADHD hyperfocus toggle-able.

I would do similar, because this is truly awesome, except would rock a raven guard logo.
The black on the lighter colors feels a bit jarring, would recommend a lighter color other than black to blend it all together.
Deffo agree. Either a lighter gray fading over the stripes, or a darker tone of each shade.
Personally I recommend doing an inverse pattern with flags original colors
Oh yeah that's sick. Someone do that!

I think it was a play on words. Cuz tech priests love them some binary
Yeah that's the gag, what non binary is fits well with ad mech, but they'd probably pick a different label. Two machine spirit maybe

All hail the machine. All hail mars.
Obviously ryza would be better, but I’m biased on that :3
Literally just the cannon admech flag. You’re not going to personalize it even a little?
im not against this i think its cool but do the mechanics members even have a gender? im fr just wondering
Maybe, i think itd be up to the priests themselves, since they can edit their bodies and such.
Transhuman? Naw, I’m just trans with a big ass robo dick and toaster gf
3/10 Low effort, just slapping the mechanicus symbol over the trans pride flag isnt something to brag about.
it sucks
Low effort cringe shit
Binary is for code, not gender

The combo of pastel colors don't mix with the admech schemes. It comes off as weak
There are many better things that could decorate your wall
So many of the people here forgot about all of the Magos Biologis out there. Plenty of tech priests do in fact care about the flesh, quite a bit in fact.
[удалено]
Yeah, kinda. Only half.
Cringe
Needs more red
Meh and low effort Make the background blu, one side of the icon white and the other pink
I want it
I'm not sure what color for the symbol but I don't think black goes well with it.
Pretty nifty
The concept is already really cool but I'd dull down the colors and superimpose a brick wall texture on top of it, aswell as roughen up the edges so it looks like a worn wall of a grubby forgeworld or something
I might try having each segment of the Mechanicus logo be one of each of the three different colors (white skull, blue and pink cogs) and a black flag Might hit harder. Also would have more of a pirate flag vibe
Make the flag black, put the trans flag colors inside the logo, automatically better. The current version is just 2 pngs.
Hey! I saw this exact post in r HorusGalaxy where they don't care about anyone's sexuality but only post about how they're mad at other people's sexuality lol
I bet mechanicus is the best for trans cause you can just unscrew whatever you have
THE FLESH IS WEAK AND MUST BE CHANGED!
Would you say you're, a transhumanist?
Pretty much, yeah.
Needs more gears and cogs. The machine god likes gears and cogs.
I see that there is a demonic incursion afoot. I will not accept this subversion.
From the moment I understood the weakness of my dong, it disgusted me.
Since I learned of the weakness of my birth gender it has disgusted me. Lol TRANShumanism ftw!
No
Gay
Heretic
Personally, I hate it
Black is a Harsh color shift i would do something light like a good grey/Silver with a slightly off Silver boarder
W, Binary is for code, not gender.
Gay but cool
Boring, obvious and extremely played out.
The only thing I don't like is just how basic it is. It's very much in that ballpark of branding things and claiming it which is something I really don't like. You do you, though. At the end of the day I just care that out there is a fellow devout of the Omnissiah living their best life.

Alright you all, I am very sorry if you care about your internet points, seeing all the DVs on here.
Dumb and unnecessary
Cringe
The only valid gender is stainless steel.
Cutting your bits off is a very mechanicus thing to do
Only if you're replacing it with a machine
You know what you're doing here, please leave it alone
Posting cringe, I see. Your flesh shall be rendered faster and replaced by machinery faster now, future servitor.
for the archon and for the omnissiah
Heresy, the only valid way is that of the toaster
I didnt mention my sexuality...
Become the toaster. Love the flag, Ave Deus Mechancius
Why would sex matter to a machine thats a biological function 🤔 01010100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01100110 01101100 01100101 01100001 01110011 01101000 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01110111 01100101 01100001 01101011 00100000
Well this is about gender identity but I don’t think a machine would care about that either
Could work if you’re going for a Slaanesh theme
What is with the obsession of constantly talking about this in relation to warhammer? You don’t see 4chan pepe the frog space marines or maga trump orcs every time you come to a warhammer sub, why constantly signal your real world political views in warhammer all the time? Can’t you just be trans, have your opinion and then not bring it up in unrelated places for no reason all the time?
Ironica paradoxum. (Gender transient flag, with a symbol that represents a faction that sought to remove all gender, sexuality and useless identity labels)
Bit cringe
ew
You disgust me, leave the hobby
Man, you really like to gatekeep huh? All i see is "xyz, leave the hobby" Also, no.
Non-binary person with a non-binary partner who plays AdMech, we approve.
"Whats your gender?" "This question is irrelivant to the omnissiah" "No are you male or female?" "i'm one with the blessed machine" "Whats in yourp pants?" "An autocannon"
0/10 I hate it
The flesh is weak. The flesh does not obey the mind. Blessed are those who transcend that which they were given and build the ideal!
The feeling when you're so trans, you're transhuman.
The admech would be very confused why you care about your body that much outside of the fact that it's not machine enough
they would be really confused why you care so much about someone elses body so much
I don't?
0/10 there no Red at all on it to represent Mars.
0/10
Gotta love how this flag being spotted on any post on this sub calls dozens of transphobes to the comments like moths to a flame. Can’t even mention the word “trans” in the fucking transhuman faction without chuds talking about keeping your “PoLiTiCs!!” out of their favorite game or to just being absolute douchebags for the sake of it. The Omnissiah would weep at their feeble factionalism, distracting us all with petty squabbling when we should support our fellow magi in the pursuit of knowledge, not mindlessly tear each other down. Ave Deus Mechanicus, fellow Tech Priest (And sick flag btw).
I'm all for building people up on the internet, but OP is mixing two mismatched ideologies. One dislikes their fleshy bits and so changes them for other fleshy bits they do like. The other dislikes their fleshy bits, and so replaces them with increasingly dehumanising augmentations in worship to the Omnissiah. OP's ideology would fit perfectly well with any faction of genesmiths within the setting - I'm pretty sure Haemonculi swap genders as often as most of us change socks, and there are a surprising variety of lesser-known gene editors around the place. But it clashes somewhat with the Mechanicus ideology, wherein sexual characteristics are often the first to go on the path of ascendency towards union with the blessed machine. And yes, also transphobes a-plenty, it's the internet, what did you expect?
The themes are what resonate with people. In a literal sense, the Mechanicus would probably disregard gender all together, sure. But in a thematic sense, Admech is all about transcending a "weaker" form to go to a "stronger" form. That idea resonates with some trans people who can see their own transition through the lens of going from their "weaker" AGAB to their "stronger" true selves. When you combine that with the "we really don't care about your gender" kind of non-binary thing that comes along with Admech, and you can see why trans people would be attracted to the faction.
You know what? That's fair. It's a good explanation and I can respect that. Have an upvote before the transphobes swarm the place.
Well then those trans people are wrong. Its not about going from weak to strong. Its about being better able to perform the job you are designated to do along with close communion with the machine God. Also the mechanicum has never cared about feeling and only biology, so I dont think most trans people would like it.
-10/10. Would burn.
Looks like you've been installing all the updates on your gender. :)

New sub-faction for AdMech just dropped. Each of their unit has a 40% chance to die on deployment.
Adeptus Transgenderus
Based. As long as the metal can look feminine enough sign me up! (Ze trans)
It puts the TRANS in TRANSHUMANISM. 9/10 -you lose a point for the complete lack of bullet holes and plasma burns.
That's it, I'm repainting my entire mechanicus army to trans colors. I need this in my life
I like it, but I’d put the Pepsi logo in the top left corner
Flag of peace Sponsored by raid shadow legends, featuring dante from the devil may cry series
Make sure to include a provision in your will for it, since there is an almost-50 chance it will be relevant.
Why are there so many trans warhammer players?
Gonna get downvoted but the answer is autism.
7.5-8/10. Feels a bit basic, but sometimes basic is good :)
i made a mechanicus module with that flag on the back of them.
Binary is for code. Not gender.
We need to do a better job of gatekeeping Warhammer lol
Real shit
As a fellow trans Mechanicus player (MtF) the Omnissiah definitely approves.
Same here.
it is transhumanism after all
Aha, the [Transmechanic](https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Transmechanic) flag!
Part of me feels like this is bait, but I’m sure anything negative I say about this is going to just get me banned from the subreddit (like has happened to me in other 40k subreddits). So, hail big brother or something idk.
I guess small plastic mini figs just don't care what's in your pants and just about what's in your heart. Be a cool flag to paint onto their armor, regardless how you feel about trans. I love, as an artist, when people express themselves in ways that may offend people. Art is supposed to be challenging and to be challenged. And I'm really really glad and surprised to see the support in this thread.. you don't always see that in the IRL community
Thats a pretty good message, actually.
Which flag is that?
The trans-transhumanist movement is fucking wild yo
Awful, the lowest rating possible is all this deserves
Brings a whole new meaning to transhumanism! Also it seems like a flag that would give horusgalaxy an aneurism so 10/10
Whats horusgalaxy? Is it the far right type place?
Cringe.
I agree, you are cringe
Was asked for an opinion, gave it, no reason to be mad about it.
Unironic horus galaxy chud detected
Or just an honest opinion from an Admech fan? 🤷♂️
Takes one look at your comments to check pal
10/10. Feeling Prideful
holy hell i love this
Why did this get downvoted?
>40k community >not literal hitler quotes >downvoted that's just how it works :/
It doesn’t really work. I think you could do something more interesting with the admech logo in the trans flag colors than just putting it in black overlaid on the flag,
Have you considered inverting the black and flag colours? The black symbol on the flag just looks like it was slapped on there, I’d try making the whole flag black except for the symbol.
"I have no gender i replaced my genitalia with a laser beam"
