	'''Enginseers''' (Not to be confused with the [[Eldar]] [[Farseer]] or [[Spiritseer]]) are members of the [[Mechanicus]].

	==Overview==		==Overview==
	Enginseers first and foremost are highly trained members of the Cult Mechanicus and are dedicated to the maintenance of Imperial technology. While Tech Priests may venture out and explore undiscovered locations for [[STC\|more goodies to hoard]], Enginseers stay back to help other Imperial Organizations in order to keep their stuff running and maintain a stable relationship with the wider Imperium. They are a common sight on battlefields with large numbers of armoured vehicles, and are often accompanied by a retinue of [[Servitor\|servitors]] for assistance or protection. Although most Guardsmen revere their vehicles enough not to risk annoying an Enginseer by 'tinkering,' [[That Guy\|the modification of vehicles to fulfill a certain need is inevitable,]] much to the chagrin of any Enginseers present. Enginseer contingents are also included in the mighty [[Adeptus Titanicus\|Titan Legions]] and the crews of the massive warships of the [[Imperial Navy]], allowing them to perform emergency repairs in the heat of battle.

	Humorously, despite the respect they usually command among the units they are seconded to, Enginseers are not held in high regard among the Cult Mechanicus itself as their skills seldom contribute to The Quest for Knowledge. As a result of their overwhelmingly practical knowledge, they are often viewed as lowly but necessary cogs in the workings of the Cult.

	In 8th edition Enginseers are vital to the AdMech player. They are the only cheap HQ so you want to spam probably 2-3 of them. Problem is that [[Games_Workshop\|they cost $30 each]]. There's a simple solution to that. Some of the robed model in the cultists kit included with Dark Vengeance look remarkably adeptus mechanicus like. One of them even has an axe that look remarkably like an omnissian axe. You can buy a whole squad for a couple of bucks from ebay. Pick one of them, glue some bits that you have left around from skitarii, tech priests, onagers whatever and you have a nice $2 enginseer. [[Heresy\|With a disturbing chaotic look]]. (It's worth noting that the model below uses the Chaos Cultist champion, which was only available in Dark Vengeance and is no longer available, except on Ebay, where he's usually pretty expensive.)

	Good news. Thanks to the new Start Collecting! set, the Enginseer is easier to get. Since GW finally released an Ad Mech bundle which didn't cram yet another Magos down your throat. If only they could do the same about the plastic Commissar...		Good news. Thanks to the new Start Collecting! set, the Enginseer is easier to get.
