The '''Adeptus Mechanicus''', refered to in shorthand as '''AdMech''',{{Fn|48b}}{{Fn|49}} formerly known as the '''Martian Mechanicum''', is a technological organisation, often known as the ''Priesthood of [[Mars]]''. It holds a monopoly on technological knowledge in the [[Imperium]]. Their [[Forge World]]s turn out the Imperium's most powerful and advanced weaponry and equipment. The organisation's adepts, the [[Tech-priest]]s, are vital in maintaining much of the Imperium's more technologically advanced equipment, not least of which is the [[Emperor|Emperor's]] life-sustaining [[Golden Throne]].{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|48a}}
