My fellow beeps and boops, what a day this is. The sun is shining beyond the rad-clouds, fallout ash lightly dusts the desert, and a cool breeze wafts away the acrid smell of contaminated sulfur with pleasant aromas of fresh sulfur.
And it’s on this day that Administratum launches support for our latest add-on, Codex: Adeptus Mechanicus, available right now to all our great Official Patrons.
Administratum Add-on – Codex: Adeptus Mechanicus
Have you ever wanted to throw your life at the pursuit of Archeotech Parts of questionable value? Good news, we have a local Tech-Priest who loves throwing lives at his pursuits. Or maybe throwing lives those pursuing him, it’s unclear. But you’ll do great. You’re a natural and, naturally, you’ll want to track the progress you make in collecting Archeotech Parts.
To get started, go to your roster’s Settings tab, then to Add-Ons, and install the Codex: Adeptus Mechanicus add-on. Once it’s up and running, you’ll be able to access all the Requisitions from the new Adeptus Mechanicus codex and see all the progress you’ve made in acquiring power artifacts for your army.
With each battle you fight, you can either make progress in scavenging archeotech parts, scouting for location data, or uncovering Legendary Archeotech that can warp an entire battle.
Not an Official Patron but still want to give this Add-on a shot? Just join a campaign hosted by one of our fantastic Warhound Patrons. They can install the add-on in their campaign, which automatically unlocks it for all the joined rosters!
The Grand Narrative’s Grand Bug Fix
This is Administratum’s first big update since Games Workshop’s Grand Narrative event in Atlanta. I myself was there, throwing fistfuls of dice at the table in a vain attempt to get my Flechette Blasters to do anything. It was a fantastic event with the coolest players in attendance, who were even cooler for having used Administratum to track their games and armies throughout the event.
I had the chance to talk with so many people about Administratum, and everyone provided excellent feedback. The most pressing of which was a bug that kept occuring when submitting battle reports without selecting a Territory. That bug has been fixed, and additionally, the battle report workflow was updated to better handle bugs like that.
But that’s enough waxing poetic about bugs and add-ons. Let’s get to the meat of the update. That’s right, it’s time for patch notes!

I had so much fun building the terminal UI for the Codex: Adeptus Mechanicus add-on, that I’m legitimately considering building it as a site-wide theme. It would take an absolutely massive amount of refactoring, but it would be cooool.
If that’s something you’d like to see, then hop on our Discord server and let me know. You can get access to it by joining our Patreon, which not only gives you access to our Discord, but also massively helps us out. It takes an unbelievable amount of work to keep Goonhammer up and running, and your support means the world. But enough sappy shills, get out there and play some games!
