Path to Glory

In this episode, George is joined by a new challenger from down under: Reuben, the Australian player who crossed oceans and crushed expectations to claim victory at the 2025 Canadian Tabletop Championship. With sharp instincts and ruthless consistency, Reuben carved his path through Canada’s finest and walked away with the crown, and a Golden Ticket to the World Championships of Warhammer.

Together, they unpack the list, relive key moments, and reflect on what it takes to bring glory to your homeland on foreign soil. It’s proof that no matter where you’re from, the call to greatness can echo across continents.

Australia has entered the arena. And it is here to win.

At long last, a new balance update has arrived for Warhammer Underworlds. In this episode, we walk through the changes one by one, sharing our first impressions and unpacking the impact each adjustment could have on the game.

From long awaited nerfs to unexpected shifts, we discuss what this means for the current meta. Will it be enough to knock Gitz and Jaws off the top of the mountain? Or have they simply adapted once more?

Big changes are here, and the path to glory just got a little more treacherous.

In this episode, George and Mark continue their tier list series by stepping up to the B tier warbands. They talk through the warbands they believe sit comfortably in this middle ground, discuss what keeps them from rising to the top, and highlight the tools that still make them dangerous in the right hands.

Whether you see B tier as balanced, overlooked, or one step away from greatness, this episode brings the context and commentary to back it up.

In this episode, George sits down with Matt Penner to celebrate excess, elegance, and absolute domination after his win at the Alberta Grand Clash 2025 with The Thricefold Discord, paired with Blazing Assault and Countdown to Cataclysm. A master of precision and flair, Matt played a dazzling series of games that left his opponents reeling in the wake of Slaanesh’s perfection.

His victory not only secured a place in the spotlight but also earned him a coveted golden ticket to the World Championships of Warhammer.

Matt, the author behind the Set the Tempo blog featured on the Path to Glory website, shares the cunning and control that define his warband’s approach. Though recorded before the most recent rules update, the tactics discussed remain as sharp and seductive as ever. The Thricefold Discord were untouched, and their disharmony is far from over.

Prepare for a symphony of strikes and subtlety. The Dark Prince is pleased.

Knives out! In this episode, we take a blood soaked dive into Knives of the Crone, the latest warband to join Warhammer Underworlds. We start with a review of their fighter cards and warscroll, digging into the deadly synergy behind Kaena Vix and her prophetic disciples of Morai-Heg. With Rituals of Prophecy, this warband turns blade and fate into a single, vicious force, perfect for players who like to live (and fight) on the edge.

We break down how this four fighter warband blends Mastery and Strike playstyles, where their power spikes lie, and why Inspiration timing is key. To close, we explore deck pairing options, including how Edge of the Knife and other Rivals and Nemesis decks can amplify their potential.

If you are looking to slice through the meta with style and a little foresight, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we recap the AdeptiCon 2025 Grand Clash where Mark defied expectations and claimed victory with Kainan’s Reapers, a warband many had counted out in the current meta. Not only did he punch his ticket to the World Championships of Warhammer, he did it in style (and took his rightful tithes) with his favorite warband.

We also highlight George’s top 8 finish and reflect on what makes this moment extra special: all three hosts of Path to Glory have now won AdeptiCon.

That’s four years, three champions, two editions, and one unstoppable podcast crew.

The lads get together to share their thoughts on the meta they expected to see at AdeptiCon 2025, hosted in Milwaukee this year. While the tournament has now come and gone - and spoilers, Mark has been crowned champion with Kainan’s Reapers! It’s still a great time capsule of where the North American community’s head was at going into the event, at least from our perspective.

From warband predictions to matchup expectations, we talk through what we thought would rise, what might stumble, and how we expected the meta to shake out before the first roll of the dice. Tune in next week for the post Grand Clash breakdown.

In today’s episode, George sits down with longtime friend of the show, and our very first patron, Val! Fresh off an action-packed weekend at Warhammer World, Val shares his journey through two fierce events, where he not only stomped the competition to win one tournament (securing a Golden Ticket back to Worlds) but also thundered into second place in the other.

We talk epic battles, peak game moments, and the proudest victory of all—seeing his son, whom he’s been training, make a mighty showing of his own. It’s a dino-sized discussion full of tournament learnings and plenty of insight into the Jaws of Itzl.
