By all accounts the free market isnt that free rn, locals are no competition to already established and powerful chains

once someone gets rich enough, they can kill off all attempts at competition by simply operating at a loss until the competition is strangled
or by simply buying competition and incorporating it

wintry cloud

dense prairie

wintry cloud
cause im just saying "skitarii have goggles"
storm jungle
Not goggles persay its more uhhh
medieval helmets
and some weird aquatic vibes
They are led in the field by a Battle-Pilgrym Marshal, a veteran selected from the most proficient of a conclave’s ‘ordinator’ squad leaders. These experienced commanders are vested with the authority of the Fabricator General in the field, and frequently carry relic weapons like the symbolic auctorit sceptre to cement their authority over all of the Skitarii in a given theatre.
again tho 30k
winged jacinth
There's not a great standard look to techpriests, but skitari are generally obviously built for war
storm jungle
Yeah that
Skits got the look of fighters/soldiers
techpriests are more- well priest-like lol
wintry cloud
they tend to look more bipedal or human i think
winged jacinth
Yeah they're also more uh, standard than tech priests
Who are often rather adventurous with their form
A whole unit of skitarii will generally look pretty similar, tech priests kinda have whatever one-off design suits them and their needs
Spend a lot of time climbing up and down cogitator stacks? Spider legs
Hang out in a lot of swamps? Tank treads
Theres probably fully aquatic techpriests we never see for obvious reasons

If you want the big differences
Skitarii tend to be in carapace armor(the corpus skitarii) and be more humanoid
Martian standard skitarii(the 40k minis) also always have this segmented armor thing going on for their armor and also the new heresy battle pilgrims have that same style of armor as well
You don’t always see on tech priests
Ultimately skitarii are meant to resemble/blend in among the clergy
As they’re members of the cult mechanicus’s religion.
More so as “holy” crusaders and fanatical warriors
also the "headwear" I guess
but tech priest facemasks/helmets vary wildly
so not really
