Description From the rooftops of our city shines
Arc Lightning's cruel glow. 
From hab-blocks echo brazen steps,
machines are humming low.

With brass and steel they trample souls
clad just flesh and bone,
with disregard for all that lives
that's not one of their own. 

Such is the march of war machines,
for more souls do they crave
until the very last of us
becomes their metal slave.

- forbidden worker's canto of Forge World Cambria

Few among the common populace of worlds even as enlightened as the Ringworld Cambria come to grasp the higher function and purpose of the Adeptus Mechanicus. To those souls dwelling far from the light of the Omnissiah, the actions undertaken by Techpriests and their adepts may appear cruel or senseless. Millennia of successfully quelled uprisings have shown, however, that the masses are quickly convinced of the true superiority of the machines, once they are first confronted with the might of the Machine God's great creations.

All shall tremble before Mechanicus Tripods! 
After having introduced my miniature version before, this now is a properly sized one, doing justice to their proud heritage as martian war machines. 

Please excuse the unnecessary digression into imperial work-drone poetry - when I wrote the description for this image, it just fell into a crude rhythm and I thought "whelp, that's probably as good as low-gothic rhymes get anyways, so why not". I promise it won't happen again!
