Show notes

The Tenth Edition launch has come and gone, and with it comes a mix of topics for our hosts to discuss. First, an extended hobby progress segment involving magnets and painting techniques. Following that, we dig into a little bit of everything 10th edition-related, including the new points system, the new 40K app, the Forge World datasheets, our first games of 10th Edition, and the current discourse on comp at 10th Edition tournaments.

Episode 280: The 2023 Kansas City US Open Jun 17, 2023

Show notes

New edition, new format! We’ve stripped out a couple of phases of the show to get it to you on a more timely, more focused fashion. In part one, we discuss our experience at the second US Open to be held in Kansas City, with a particular focus on the narrative event. In part two, we look at the rollout for 10th Edition, how this differs from any past editions, and whether or not you really need the Leviathan box.

Episode 279: The Midwest Conquest 2023 Jun 04, 2023

Show notes

We’re back together in Kansas City for the 2023 Midwest Conquest! In part one of this episode, we talk about the tournament, our games, and the winners, as well as the Titan-themed shenanigans we got into on the day before the big event. In part two, we talk about Boarding Actions (thanks to Dennis bringing up his terrain set from Texas), our experiences, the big differences between it and standard 40K, and how well we think it’ll translate to 10th Edition.

Episode 278: Leviathan Revealed May 12, 2023

Show notes

Warhammer Fest 2023 has come and gone, but in its wake we have a whole slew of revelations about 10th Edition. The biggest reveal? The launch box and its contents! We dig into the coverage about the upcoming Leviathan box, including the models, the book, and the deck of cards. Deck of cards? Yes, deck of cards. We also do a day by day dive into all the 10th edition coverage from the end of April, with a special focus on that deck of cards and what it means for games going forward. Also, the return of listener mail, and our hobby progress!

Episode 277: Arks of Omen – The Lion Apr 24, 2023

Show notes

The conclusion of the Arks of Omen series is here, and with it comes the return of a second loyalist primarch to the 41st millenium. What is Lion’el Jonson up to in this final book, and how does it work into the larger story? What is Vashtorr’s endgame? Does Chaos win or lose this narrative ark? What does this set up for 10th Edition? We dig into the synopsis, as well as this final take on Boarding Action rules and missions, in this episode. Also, we pick through all the tidbits of 10th Edition previews (as of recording), and try to get a bigger picture of what this edition will look like. Finally, our hobby progress, and the soon-to-be-obsolete Morale Phase!

Episode 276: Lions and Previews and Tenth, Oh My! Apr 04, 2023

Show notes

After a month away, we return to a plethora of previews and new releases – so many, we dedicated the entire episode to them! In this episode, we cover the arrival of Vashtorr, the new Boarding Patrols boxes, Arks of Omen three and four, the accidental Dante deployment, and the full Adepticon 40K preview, including the biggest announcement: the oft-rumored and now-confirmed 10th Edition of Warhammer 40,000. We pick through all the details (as of recording time) and try to build as much a picture of the future as we can, all trying to answer two questions. First, will this address the issues facing the game, and second, can they pull it off? All this, our hobby progress, and a tiny-yet-epic Morale Phase!

Episode 275: Arks of Omen – Angron Mar 02, 2023

Show notes

The Arks of Omen storyline continues, and this time we look at the second volume, which is headlined by everyone’s favorite angry angel, Angron. What draws him to wage battle against the forces of the Imperium, what does Khorne have in store for the sector, and what is Vashtorr the Arkifane’s real goal in all of this? In addition, we get the second installment of Boarding Action rules, with this book providing new faction-specific rules and new missions. How is the format holding up, what new strategic elements are in play, and how many books will you need to play it? Also, news and new release, our hobby progress, and the Morale Phase!

Episode 274: Ninth Edition World Eaters Feb 13, 2023

Show notes

Rev up those chainaxes and slap on some red armor – it’s time to talk World Eaters! In this episode, we take a look at the new World Eaters codex and tell you 8 things you need to know about it. Yes, it’s down from our usual 10, but Khorne insisted on 8. We talk about the things this codex has, as well as the things that are surprisingly missing. Also, news and new releases, your listener mail, hobby progress, and the Morale Phase!

Episode 273: Building Arks of Omen Detachment Armies Jan 31, 2023

Show notes

Last episode, we took a look at the new Arks of Omen detachment in this season’s Grand Tournament packet. In this episode, we’re going to look at what you can actually do with it. We take the detachment through its paces and see how far we can push its flexibility. Bloody Rose Sisters of Battle? Death Guard Terminus Est force? The Eight? Oops, All Squigs? We try our hand at those and much more. Also, news and new releases, your listener mail, our hobby progress, and a multiverse-ranging Morale Phase!

Episode 272: Arks of Omen Review Double Feature Jan 17, 2023

Show notes

New year, new season, new narrative! In this episode, we take a look at both new Arks of Omen books. First, we examine the Arks of Omen Grand Tournament booklet, with its new detachment structure. Is this book going to give us the grand flexible army-building we’ve been hoping for, while keeping the balance improvements from Nephilim? Second, we delve into Arks of Omen: Abaddon, with a focus on the new Boarding Action format. Games Workshop is hitching their wagons to this format for the next few months – is it everything they’re promising, or is it another format that’ll fall to the wayside? Also, news and new releases, your listener mail, hobby progress, and the Morale Phase!
