Episode 19 - Cold Beer & Whine

Darren joins the cast again for another fun filled episode. Except when you read fun, exchange it for chaos.

We swear there was a plan for this one, but the discussion started and it just flew.

We talk a scattered Hobby time, rip into the new assassins rules, and hear a brief play back on Cody's first LVO.

We discussion when rules are needed at the table, original or scans or photos? Highlighting the lack of availability of white dwarves at the moment.

Genestealer cult is on the horizon and you can expect some further conversations focused around them.

Queue the music!

Lucas and Bodz are joined by the auxiliary Battle Brothers, producer Matt Helm and Matt Corless, aka Lucas 2.0 to reminisce on the happenings of LVO 2019, and mostly rub it in Lucas's FOMO face.

The LVO-elevnth Hour Feb 01, 2019

Show notes

Episode 16. The LVO-elevnth Hour Lucas, Bodz and Matt Helm - basically the only hosts not whipped by their wives - link up for a final discussion before the LVO list submission deadline.

Helm discusses his experiences of late his coined "friend maker" Craftworld/Ynarri list and its recent performance at a local Tennessee RTT. Is now the time for Helm to make adjustments or will he be sticking true?

Bodz talks his recent experiences playing with the Sisters of Battle Beta codex and his shiny new Custodes. Spoiler - he may have some more whining to do. Should he focus on appearance and hobby track, play instead for best in faction Astartes, or bring a list that could see him grace day three?

Lucas weighs in after his own trials this year on whether Bodz should feel bad leading Hobby Track with a commission painted army, and he shares with the group that he might yet again be changing up his faction. Is he jumping to the next great net list, or is there something else cooking for our esteemed host?

All this and more on this special episode as we close in on the Las Vegas Open 2019.

At the couches the bros talk a big game and sling jabs at one another on the regular.

Recorded shortly before the release of chapter approved, the Bros talk the leaks and rumours and we hear Bodz, the resident Sororitas player, vent his frustrations with the expected beta codex.
