Episode 204 – John French Returns

John French joins us back on the show as we try and look back at The Horus Heresy numbered novel series. We definitely take a bit of time to look at the 'NuHeresy' though as well.

Episode 200– Mini Colour and The Forges of Saturn Nov 02, 2025

Show notes

Episode 200– Mini Colour and The Forges of Saturn Woop, woop – we made it to 200 after 10+ years of recording and to celebrate we recorded a pretty regular show.. Henry from Cult of Paint tries to answer why another paint line may actually be a good thing with obvious bias (but also some really good points). Then we have a look through the new Journal Tactica and see how it stacks up as value for money.

Oh we chat a bit, bit of news – you know the score...
