Disclaimer: this episode was recorded in early July. As such, some conversations may come across as a bit disjointed in time. This episode is also BONUS CONTENT; discussions and series intended to be more casual in tone, complementing our other episodes.

Joshy and Zakky have a casual conversation about how our hobbying is going, from discussing existing Warhammer projects to what's next for our collections, rounding out the back half of the episode with a chat on everything we've been getting up to outside of the Warhammer hobby.

We're back to where it all started; we are redoing our original four episodes!

Those inaugural episodes served as both an introduction to and a metrics-based review of each playable faction in Warhammer 40,000. With 11th edition landing hot and new players joining the scene, we feel it's a great time to revisit these topics. First up, we have all of the loyalist Space Marine factions, from those found in Codex: Space Marines, to supplements, to even the corners of Index: Deathwatch.

How this series works is we blend matter-of-fact orientation with opinionated review. We give each of the four categories a ranking between 1-5, and an overall score out of 20. We call this the SLAG ranking. We feel these categories cover all you need to know:

Style - the overall aesthetic and whether we feel it is fully realised.

Lore - their place in the universe, how they are represented, and how they carry themselves within the epic.

Accessibility - whether the faction is easy to acquire, paint, and get going with.

And finally, Gameplay - how all of the above culminates on the tabletop, whether their rules serve the faction well, and if the faction has meat on their bones both casually and competitively.

This episode is BONUS CONTENT; discussions and series intended to be more casual in tone, complementing our other episodes. This episode features our BOOK CLUB pick for July - Warhammer the Horus Heresy: "The First Heretic", by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, performed on audio by Gareth Armstrong. There will be spoilers.

"The First Heretic" covers the slow turn to the worship of Chaos, not just for the Word Bearers legionaries but of their primarch Lorgar Aurelian. A chain of events leading to possession and turning the ear of other legions all begins with the razing of Monarchia, a punishment by The Emperor for the Word Bearers' disallowed religious worship of his image.

August's book club will be another title by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, "The Emperor's Gift", a Grey Knights novel following the young knight Hyperion around the time of the First War for Armageddon.

It's story time! Joshy guides Zakky through the weird and wacky sci-fi setting of Warframe, a cult classic Action-MMO by Digital Extremes, released in 2013. Beloved by the TTP.FM, Warframe offers an amazingly unique and robust gameplay, focusing on super-powered humanoids as they bullet-jump, blast, and hack their way through many in-game factions. The lore of this setting is where most stumble. Developed piecemeal over a decade, with quests spanning from simple tutorials to full-blown cinematics linking together deep philosophical concepts and near-mythical characters.

Join us as we go over the setting, the questline story, and how this comes to life in-game.

Welcome back to Data Drop! The series that sees us react to and review the newest stuff for Warhammer 40,000, covering unit datasheets, faction rules, and their detachments. In this episode, we review May's new additions to Warhammer 40,000, arriving just in time to close out '10th edition'.

The first half of the episode reviews the datasheets for new models: Commissar Yarrick, Commissar Graves, the Hippogriff AFV and Centaur RSV for Astra Militarum, Imperial Agents' Inquisitor Kroyle, Adepta Sororitas' Intranzia Fraye, and Wazdakka Gutsmek for the Orks. Following, we assess the six vehicular-oriented detachments offered in the Warhammer 40,000 supplement 'Armageddon: The Return of Yarrick'.

We had a lot of fun reviewing all of these end-of-edition supplements and think they added a lot of exciting oomph to various factions. Stay tuned for upcoming lore episodes.

Chaos Space Marines, Red Corsairs, and the Aeldari free-spirits known also as Corsairs, take centre stage.

[This episode is BONUS CONTENT; discussions and series intended to be more casual in tone, complementing our other episodes. This book club episode is a discussion covering the novel Helsreach (2010) by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, performed by Jonathan Keeble. There will be spoilers.]

A true classic of Warhammer 40,000 literature. This Black Templars-centric novel focuses on fan-favourite character Merek Grimaldus, a Chaplain who is sentenced to defend Hive Helsreach upon the world of Armageddon from an incomprehensibly large Ork Waaagh! What follows is an epic tragedy of humanity defending their home to the last.

Our next Book Club will be Adrian Tchaikovsky's 'Starseer's Ruin', a Seraphon novel for the Age of Sigmar universe, released in 2025.

Jonny is here for Joshy's story time, with the recent 40k supplement 'Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant' being the focus. Recapping the 80-something page lore primer on the setting, this episode goes over the 'what, where, and who' of this nightmarish 'underworld' of the Warhammer 40,000 setting.

We cover the renegade Red Corsairs of Huron Blackheart, the Aeldari Corsairs of Eldritch Raider Prince Yriel, and stop to smell the desecrated roses of Night Lords and others along the way.

Joshy and Jonny take a look at the new Warhammer 40,000 supplement 'Crucible of Champions', released in the recent 'Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant' boxset.

We go over how it works, what we both did and did not like with the supplement, and then spend about half of the episode gushing over our creations.

Continuing with our coverage of the 500 Worlds - Titus supplement, Jonny is here to discuss Boarding Actions, as well as the new 'Dread Incursions' supplement. He covers exactly how this game mode differs from regular Warhammer 40,000 and how to play it.

Joshy follows this up with an overview of the 500 Worlds campaign system, 'War for the Vespator Front', covering the various steps of setting up your campaign, how alliances of players form and operate, as well as how exactly that relates to playing games of Warhammer 40,000.

BONUS CONTENT* Joshy and Jonny discuss February's Book Club:

The Horus Heresy Dropsite Massacre (2025) by John French, performed by Jonathan Keeble. There will be spoilers.

Dropsite Massacre is a love letter to fans of the Horus Heresy saga, featuring many different characters and factions, following the reveal of Horus' betrayal against the Imperium. This novel follows the Primarchs and their legions, alternating between the traitors and the loyalists sent to end their treachery. What ensues is a storm of violence that will shake the brotherhoods of the Astartes forevermore.

March's Book Club will be a classic. 'Helsreach' (2010) by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, performed also by Jonathan Keeble. The novel follows Grimaldus of the Black Templars' defiant defense through the Third War for Armageddon.

*BONUS CONTENT!* Joshy and Jonny discuss for Book Club, "Da Red Gobbo Collection", an anthology released in 2024 compiling several works from Mike Brooks, Denny Flowers, and Rhuairidh James. There will be spoilers.

Da Red Gobbo is synonymous with the fires of 'revolushun' which stir in certain Grots' hearts. Whether called to action by the oppression of da Ork bosses or by the need to lead their fellow twits in defiance of an overwhelming enemy, Da Red Gobbo is not one entity but a figurehead adopted by many a Grot.

This was definitely the most 'fun' we have had with a Warhammer novel. Our next Book Club will be a bit more serious with The Horus Heresy: Dropsite Massacre, written by John French, released in 2025.

It's our End-of-Year Special!

In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier.

For Final Days' final day... Joshy provides the TLDR of his favourite Black Library Saga: Dan Abnett's Eisenhorn saga.

This episode briefly covers Eisenhorn's novels Xenos, Malleus, Hereticus, and Magos. We also discuss Ravenor, Ravenor Rogue, and Ravenor Returned. Finally, we talk about Bequin: Pariah and Bequin: Penitent. While not a proper Book Club episode, we hope this episode, releasing on Christmas Day, is a fun and engaging summary of a beloved saga that, for most, has been an instrumental part of their Black Library journey.

Happy holidays.

In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier.

This episode covers Joshy's all-time favourite assembly of models and characters: The Phoenix Court of Khaine!

Made popular in Warhammer 40,000: Apocalypse, the Phoenix Court depicts an assembly of the Aeldari War God Khaine and several Phoenix Lords. These Phoenix Lords include Asurmen and his disciples from the earliest days of The Fall, where he taught Jain Zar, Fuegan, Baharroth, Maugan Ra, Lhykis and more the ways of warfare and how to defend the Aeldari people. On the tabletop, the Phoenix Lords and their Aspect Warriors form an elite backbone of an Aeldari force, and even receive their own suite of tailored rules known as the Aspect Host detachment.

It's the infamous Champion of Slaanesh! Lucius the Eternal is a real turd. We don't really like him - but that's the point! Smug, egotistical, prideful, and perhaps the deadliest Assassin in all of the Astartes datasheets across 40k, Lucius is a fan-favourite. From the very first novels of the Horus Heresy, to a recently remodelled unit for 40k's new Emperor's Children range, Lucius' presence is widespread.

Skree-ah! There are birds nearby. In this episode, we cover the Raven Guard heroes of the 40k tabletop, fan-favourite Kayvaan Shrike, 3rd Company Captain turned temporary Chapter Master during the Damocles Crusade, and newly modelled Aethon Shaan, the new Chapter Master. Both of these warriors are legendary guerrilla fighters, exemplars of their chapter's way of warfare: stealth, subterfuge, assassination. On the tabletop, these individuals reward you for bringing lots of Jump Pack and Phobos units, able to redeploy them on and off the tabletop, whilst benefitting from a suite of stealthy buffs.

We return to Chaos with a comprehensive look at Vashtorr the Arkifane, Architect of the Arks of Omen, and ruler of the Forge of Souls. He is Chaos's weapons dealer - he plays all sides of the conflict within the warp, bartering with each of the Four to create their daemon engines and other infernal weaponry. He has established a sense of order within his growing domain, as industry and creation in the material realm empower him in his quests for pantheon ascension. Upon the tabletop, Vashtorr wreaks havoc against his opponent's machinery, as well as seriously buffing nearby daemon engines.

Next on this Veiled Path is the enigmatic "main character" for the Aeldari Harlequins: Sylandri Veilwalker. A being rumoured to be multiple within a role, each moment of Veilwalker's lore pushes forward the tapestry of characters across 40k. From communications with Fabius Bile, working alongside the Fallen Angel Cypher, and escorting Yvraine, Herald of Ynnead, Veilwalker is the Laughing God's jest: a plot device. Unfortunately, she has no model in the tabletop, but a generic Shadowseer will suffice.

It's time for our End-of-Year Special!

In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier.

This instalment is all about what feels like the new girl on the block, but she's been here the whole time: Lady Aurelia Malys. Once consort to Asdrubael Vect, the Archon of the Kabal of the Poisoned Tongue is a mastermind with allies across all corners of the Aeldari tapestry. Both on the tabletop and in the lore, Lady Malys can bend others' perceptions regarding her game plan, with that deception extending to her lethality in combat. This kill-them-with-kindness courtier will have her foes cut up before they realise she's changed the terms and conditions.

Fifth on the roster is Ahzek Ahriman, at one time Magnus' the Red's favoured son, and most promising prodigy. A rampant mutation would plague the Thousand Sons since their inception, and after making a deal with Tzeentch to save the legion from the Space Wolves and their assault during the Horus Heresy, the legion would be doomed. As this mutation increased, Ahriman sought a cure - a magical antitode he would name The Rubric. The ways of Tzeentch would reveal themselves as The Rubric would change the mutated into dust, animating their armour as soulless beings. Ahriman would spend the rest of his life seeking to correct his mistake, along the way gaining power beyond that of any mortal psyker throughout the galaxy.

Our fourth feature for the special is the T'au Empire's Commander Shadowsun. Shas'O Shasherra, her real name, is a military prodigy considered the 'Spearhead of the Greater Good', and is highly regarded for her command of the Third Sphere Expansion campaign. Shadowsun is one of two students of the famed Commander Puretide, and exhibits unmatched brilliance in the ways of Kauyon - the Patient Hunter. On the tabletop, Shadowsun is a sneaky lone operative, able to secure objectives on her own while offering an aura to buff nearby units.

This year's third episode covers the heroes of the Salamanders. We discuss the pilgrimage of the Forgefather - the position of which belongs to Vulkan He'stan as he searches for the lost artefacts of the primarch. As well, we light up the episode with a second feature: Adrax Agatone, captain of the 3rd, a pragmatic and noble exemplar of the Salamander's creed.

#2: Be'lakor, the Dark Master, the First Daemon Prince, is a herald of Chaos Undivided. Forged beyond mortalhood by the powers of all four major Chaos Gods: Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch, and Slaanesh, Be'lakor is legend-shrouded. His Shadow Legions curry his favour by spreading worship and influence before abandoning empires to their fates.

Episode 1 of this series explores Imotekh the Stormlord, Phaeron of the Sautekh Dynasty. This Necron Overlord is perhaps THE superlative strategist of the setting, able to calculate the variables of conflicts spanning entire solar systems in seconds. A general feared by many races, Imotekh commands entire tomb worlds, and at present engages in civil war with The Silent King...

*Heavy spoilers for " The Infinite and the Divine" written by Robert Rath and released in 2020*

Joshy and Jonny discuss their monthly book club pick. November this year was filled with talks about the Necrons, so what better book to choose than what is likely the most popular and perhaps best of the released Necron 40k novels?

Let us know on Discord how you enjoyed the book! Throughout December, we will be reading "Da Red Gobbo Collection".

The Flayed Ones are Necrons lost to the Flayer Virus - the death knell curse of the C'tan Llandu'gor the Flayer. Likened to Zombies, Flayed Ones stalk the battlefields of Warhammer 40,000 to feed an insatiable hunger. On the tabletop, they have but a single unit, so we, Joshy and Jonny, thought, "But what if there were more?"

This is a casual two-part episode, beginning with an analysis of the new datasheets compatible with the Kill Team "Canoptek Circle" for use in 40k, and then sharing our ideas on just how Warhammer could expand upon the Flayed Ones.

We have a lot of fun theorising such things. Let us know on Discord if you'd like to see more detailed homebrew content!

The C'tan are primordial. They are the beginning. They were the great Star Gods whose patrons were the Necrontyr, and were also their undoing. The Necrontyr were saved by way of becoming the unliving Necron. They would be deceived, and they would have their revenge.

This episode is a great capsule of lore regarding these figures, exploring their origins in the lore and their role in shaping the universe. We discuss them individually, as well as their powers, and the instruments required to contain their fragmented essence.

BONUS Content!

Finally discussing October's BOOK CLUB, Jonny and Joshy share their opinions on the LitRPG sensation 'He Who Fights with Monsters' Book 1, written by Shirtaloon, and performed on audio by Heath Miller.

A first for us, a LitRPG, or literary role-playing game, combines the qualities of a role-playing game (think Dungeons & Dragons) with a fantasy novel. The result? Jason Asano, an Australian man, is transported to an unknown realm in an Isekai fashion, blessed (or cursed?) with magic and an altered physiology. Jason quickly befriends a group of local adventurers who train him and help him to fit into this new world.

Let us know what you thought by reaching out to us on Discord! This series will return at the end of November with the 40k Novel "The Infinite and The Divine" by Robert Rath.

Joshy and Jonny review the likely final codex of Warhammer 40,000's '10th Edition' - Codex: Drukhari.

This faction is the setting's equivalent to a fantasy "Dark Elf" The Drukhari are sadistic raiders, riding out from their Dark City to enslave and butcher all, so that they may stave off their own demise at Slaanesh's hands. On the tabletop, the Drukhari are at baseline the fastest group of units, excelling at rapidly disembarking from, slaughtering their foe, and re-embarking into transports as hit-and-run specialists.

While their range may be slim in recent times, and with models approaching an outdated aesthetic, we had a lot of fun exploring their rules and determining ways to use every unit and engage with the factions in several detachments. We even discuss Harlequins, the Reaper's Wager, Legends units, and Crusade.

Have you started a Drukhari army?

Joshy and Jonny talk Leagues of Votann, delving deep into the potential yields of this codex.

The Leagues of Votann are a relatively recent addition to the Warhammer 40,000 modern tabletop era. A sci-fi equivalent of fantasy dwarves, the Kin are based in the mineral-rich galactic core. They play semi-elite, with a wide set of tools to help control objectives across the battlefield.

From atomic-age influenced Hearthkyn Warriors to the strange and unusual technologies of Brokhyr's and the Science Guild, we cover all datasheets and detachments at length. As well, we offer our own personal lists were we start an army today.
