The 40k Lorecast

On today’s cast we will be starting our coverage of the Carcharodons! Opening with what the hell is a Carcharodon, and where are they in the codexes? After that we dive into how they function with as solid debate over whether or not they are chaotic good (John believes they are) and then a bunch of examples of why Brad believes they are not. With focuses on how the fleet functions, their support staff (they are not really there willingly) and how they reinforce themselves (also awful). We then dive into how they wage combat and why they are have been sent to the other side of the galaxy. We then close out debating on what each of us thinks their true origins really are.

On today’s cast we will be finalizing our coverage of the Leagues of Votann, with a fun bonus of Brad going into tachycardia during!

But then we jump into the leagues themselves, who they are, what their main purpose is, and why they are interacting with the galaxy now as well as where we thing GW will take some of their lore in the future. We then close out with the two named characters (one of which John likes more than the other).

Episode 110 - The Leagues of Votann pt 3

On today’s cast we continue our coverage of the Votann. Starting with the Leagues of Votann society works, between the Kin, Kindred, Guilds and more. We then dive into how the kin interact with both each other and the galaxy at large. From there we talk Hernkyn and the Leagues exploration of the Galaxy. We then jump into the military structure of the Leagues and how they go to war. And of course, we conclude with the grudges of the Votann. Because no coverage of the leagues could be complete without their books of grudges.

On Today’s we begin our coverage of the Votann. We open up with the tabletop history of the Votann with their release during 9th edition, and some of the issues with it lol. From there we cover the more opaque origins of them during the age of technology and what we know and don’t know about them settling the core of the galaxy. After that we dive into the kin themselves and their iron-kin brethren. Then we go into the ancestral cores and how they run the leagues. We then close out on the Votann coming out of the core and interacting more actively with the galaxy at large.Patreon:

Episode 108 - The Leagues of Votann pt 1

On Today’s we begin our coverage of the Votann. By talking about the squats and not the Votann! We open with a history of the game itself, when the squats were introduced, how they existed through the early days of the game, and then how they were removed from the game. From there we jump into what was their lore in the time. From them setting the core worlds of the galaxy, their battles with the orks, and then their joining of the imperium (sort-of). We then move into the end of the squats in the universe. We close out on the 15+ years of squat rumors and hints we got from GW, until in April 2022 they returned to the game!

Episode 107 - The Squats!

On Today’s we finalize our coverage on the Ultramarines by focusing on the characters of the UItramarines. Opening with the great Torias Tellion! From there the also great Ortan Cassius. But wait there is more great with Sicarius. But none of them had an epic enough cape, so we cover Uriel Ventris. Then we cover maybe the greatest model ever made, ok technically two models Antaro Chronus. We then close out where else but with Calgar.

We then jump to post heresy where the ultramarines lead the rebuilding effort of the imperium, while all the other legions leave for the scouring. We then close out with Gulliman killing (maybe) Alpharius, and then getting stabbed in the throat by Fulgrim.

On today's cast we cover the fantastic journey that is joining the Imperial Guard. We are aided in this endeavor by one of the greatest pieces of literature ever produced by Games Workshop "The Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer." We discus the unparalleled training and equipment you will be given. We also talk about the support you will be granted from leadership such as your noble Commissar. We even spend some (unnecessary) time going over the pathetic Xeno species you may have to deal with (easily).
