Summary

*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.* In this episode, we explore the mysterious and machine-obsessed religion of the Adeptus Mechanicus, delving into the history and evolution of their faith in the Machine God, the Omnissiah, and the concept of the Deus Mechanicus. From their founding on Mars to their galaxy-spanning influence, we break down their core beliefs, including the sacred Quest for Knowledge and the strict doctrines that define what is holy innovation and what is Tech-Heresy. We also examine the inner workings of their organization, their role within the Imperium, and the ancient, possibly divine entity known as the Void Dragon—rumored by some to be the true Machine God. Whether you're a forge-world fanatic or just curious about the cogwheel cult, this episode brings the divine circuitry of the Mechanicus to life.
