The 40k Lorecast

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.

Episode 98 - World Eaters pt 2

On today’s cast we are doing a John special. This cast is a dive into some our favorite broken rules of the game over the past 20+ years. A fun trip down memory lane, some of those memories are little bad for some players. We open with explaining Rules As Written and how that sets up some of these funny interactions. After that we dive head first into some glorious things like: no pre-measuring, guess weapons, custom vehicles, instant death, grey knight and Eldar daemon summoning, invisibility, impossible combat due to base to base rules, and more. We hope you find this fun and funny as we did.
