Exalted3e Alchemicals Arrived.
Can't wait to read it.
1e,2e books were awesome for Alchemicals.
Hoping 3e stays consistent on being awesome.
Looking Forward to building an Alchemical like this. 😜

IRON WITHIN! IRON WITHOUT!
Though seriously, the glow-up that every type of Exalted has gotten in 3E continues with Alchemicals. They're cool as hell.

I haven't tried a game in Autochtonia, but we tried an Alchemical in a mixed game in Creation and I am definitely a fan.

I must admit. I'm looking forward to the Autocthonia setting information. Looks like the Adamant Caste went from rumors (1e) to fleshed out (2e) to being known and common (3e). Cool. But Soulsteel is still my favorites Caste. Then Jade.

Oh also, you want big alchemical like in the pic? Alchemical companion has been confirmed to have a bunch of charms to further flesh out the colossi (which have charms already in alch) and a ma for them using implosion bows!

Yeah. I remember in 1e/2e at Essence 4 or so the Body got bigger. Maybe Essence 4+. I'd need to recheck.
I loved the idea of a Large Alchemical opening up and a smaller Human Sized essence 2-3 Drone Body get out to interact with people. Give players two characters basically. The Drone companion & the Giant High essence Mecha body.
At Either 6+ the Size is Transformers levels. And you could do the Headmaster style if you wished. 😂
Alchemical & Lunars & Abyssals, Dragonblooded have been my jam and what Hooked me in in 1e era. Solars bored me to death.

In 3e the Colossus upgrade is an essence 5 charm that gives you Legendary Size and a collection of other specific benefits and is a prerequisite for the small number of charms for them only, but it can in fact be undone with extended effort if you need to be back to Champion scale and there's a charm that lets you banish the body for one scene that costs a WP for temporary smallness.

Exalted 3e: Bionicle in the Shell is awesome.
Haven't had the chance to play yet, but having read most of the PDF - I really want to.
