In this week's show, the gang touch base with the meta after a quiet couple of weeks. They also dive into the Chaos Space Marines codex, and give their thoughts on the best / most fun detachments found within.

Champions of 40k is a podcast that celebrates the people who make our hobby great.

In this episode I speak with one of New Zealanbd's greatest exports - David Gaylard. He's the Karl Urban of 40k, the Peter Jackson of the hobby, the Jonah Lomu of Warhammer! Those are all names of other New Zealanders who are very good at what they do.

We speak a bit about New Zealand (naturally), a lot about what it takes to get very good at 40k, a bit about TTS, and quite a lot about lots of other stuff.

You can find the 40k Fireside podcast here. That's the youtube link.

Innes, Anthony, and Jeremy are here to talk about their feelings on the latest MFM update. Hot takes, cold takes, and some statistical skullduggery are all included!

Champions of 40k is a podcast that celebrates the people who make our hobby great.

In this episode I speak with Anthony Vanella - a man who grew up in the heart of suburbia, learned to fight, turned fighting into his living, and has now morphed that into a career as one of the best 40k players in the world.

He is vice-captain of the US WTC team, he's a coach at Art of War, and he's a specialist in the aggressive play style which has become his trademark. We talk a LOT about all of that.

Champions of 40k, hosted by Steve Joll, is a podcast that celebrates the people from all parts of the Warhammer 40k hobby that make it great. 

In this episode ...

Memories of suburban cul de sacs morph into a conversation about street fights, and then into the way Anthony Vanella has shifted his love of violent action onto the table top. 

The man known as 'Violence' spends less time throwing down in the ring these days, but has transfered a lot of his skills into 40k. He specializes in a very aggressive play style - which is the main focus of the episode.

For the first time in a long while (or ever?) the hosts are here to do a statistically-based (and somewhat feels influenced) Faction Ranking! Taking a look at the meta since the Q1 2024 dataslate at the end of January 2024 through to April 21, Innes, Nathan, and Jeremy are looking at who's performend and who's fallen flat (it's Deathwatch)!
