What is the adeptus arbites opinion on mechanics skittari involvement in the atoma prime situation
Thank you for your inquiry.
While it is always good to have more troops than your enemy in a war of attrition, having the presence of yet another organization aboard the Mourningstar may create conflict and slow the progress that the warband has fought so hard to build. We have already seen some friction between the Militarum leadership and the Inquisitorial Retinue, and tensions can run high between the Arbites and the Conclave, so adding yet another set of leaders who have their own agendas will probably strain relationships.
From a Lex enforcement standpoint, the Skitarii are much less likely to cause problems than the Conclave. The Treaty of Mars also gives the Mechanicus more leeway under Imperial Law, however, requiring application of Lex enforcement to members of the Adeptus Mechanicus need to be more precise and nuanced than it may be otherwise.
