Archaieotech
"It's a fucking mystery how half of it all works, s'why there's not a lot of competition to the Lysander tech." - Archie 'Tinker' Hubert, moments before his workshop detonated after fiddling with archaieotech.
Archaieotech is the general term for all tech that is powered by leyline energy and 99% of the time, owned and operated by the Lysander family.
It is volatile if damaged but generally stable - although Skaven take great delight in stealing and warping archaieotech into great destructive devices.
Massive archaieotech engines power the lightning rail and Manchester.
Utility
Most archaieotech is used as a power source to power other and most often older or ancient tech.
Social Impact
The use of archaieotech to power the lightning rail has made connections up and down the isles much easier.
For those with money it has made their lives far more easier and indolent.
Complexity
Highly complex and volatile archaieotech has to be maintained by a member of the Lysander family.
archaieotech generally runs the best by areas of high leyline exposure.
Discovery
2100 AE was when Mariann Lysander discovered archaieotech. She exposed herself and her 'engine' to Leyline energy by accident and found that exposure to leyline energy kickstarted her creation.
