  • Episode 163 – The Iron Hands pt 1 – Were the Iron hands supposed to be traitors? Or are they just weirdly independent?

    On today’s episode we open our coverage of the iron hands. Starting with their creation by the emperor and surprisingly lack of lore during the Unification Wars. But then we jump into their actions in the early crusade with their brutal Hammer and the Storm tactics. We then jump over to Medusa. The planet before and then at the arrival of Ferrus. As usual we then close out talking about Ferrus Manus. His arrival on Medusa and his “trials” there as he became a full blown Primarch and then the arrival of the emperor.

  • Episode 162 – The White Scars pt 3 – The truth about the Webway project, Jaghati disappears, and a legion fracturing under itself.

    On today’s episode we close out our coverage of the white scars with a bit of a different one. We open with Jaghati and the white scars journey back to Terra which introduces us to Dark Glass and some fun reveals about the Navigators. We then cover an epic fight against Mortarian and a Keeper of Secrets. And then skip ahead from the heresy to the scouring with the loss of Jaghati. We jump 10,000 years to cover the White Scars in the 41st millennia. Namely the challenges they are having in modern 40k without Jaghati and how the legion is both functioning but also falling apart without his leadership.

  • Episode 161 – The White Scars pt 2 – Jaghati is forced to choose sides despite not liking either of them, and wow were the warrior lodges a bad idea.

    On today’s episode we continue our coverage of the white scars. We start with Jaghati joining the imperium and getting a crash course in both technology but more importantly the Imperial Truth. From there we follow him and his legion as the Horus Heresy unfolds. With their encounter with the Alpha Legion and then their journey to Prospero. We then cover Jaghati meeting with the shard of Magnus to learn the truth of the Heresy and to make his choice, and then of course the worst sales pitch ever from Mortarian. We then close out on the White Scars civil war that breaks out due to the warrior lodges and Jaghati’s reaction.

  • Episode 160 – The White Scars – The creation of the 5th Legion, their transformation to the Star Hunters, and the evolution of Jaghati Khan.

    On today’s episode we begin our coverage of the white scars. With a dive into their creation during the Unification Wars, and their rather un-glorified purpose for the emperor. Then into their new role as the star hunters as they became the Emperor’s galaxy scouts. We then jump over the Jaghati Khan. His arrival on Chogoris and how he was able to unify the world, just in time for the Emperor to show up

  • Episode 159 - Dante pt 3 – The Devastation of Baal, Arks of Omen, and a bit more.

    On today’s cast we conclude our coverage of Dante. We spend most of the Episode talking about the events of the Devastation of Baal. From the opening Salvo as Dante tries to delay the incoming hive fleet, through Dante and the remaining survivors furious charge out into the Tyranid lines. We also spend some time jumping over to the moons of Baal as the Flesh Tearers and Knights of Blood make their own stand. We then cover the conclusion of the conflict with the arrival of both Guilliman and Ka’Bandha. After this we jump into the events of Dante after the war, with his elevation to Primaris Marine and his “collecting” of the Lion.

  • Episode 158 - Dante pt 2 – Are the tales of Dante real, fabrications, or a combo of both?

    On today’s cast we continue our coverage of Dante. With his arrival as newly anointed Chapter Master of the Blood Angels and his rebuilding of the chapter. From there we dive deep into the legends of Dante, from killing Skarbrand, to fighting orks on a mountain of dead orks, to being the killing blow on numerous Chaos forces (everything from lords, to sorcerers, all the way to more daemon princes). We then close out with the opening engagements that led to the devastation of Baal and Dante having to be cool with some Necrons for a hot minute.

  • Episode 157 - Dante pt 1 – How the lessons learned throughout his early life shaped Dante to be the leader he is today.

    On today’s cast we begin our coverage of the Luis Dante, the oldest and most storied of all the Space Marine Chapter Masters. We open obviously with his origins on Baal Secundus and his experiences in the trials of the Blood Angels. From there we follow his path from Neophyte to sergeant, to captain, and eventually to Chapter Master of the Blood Angels. But more importantly we focus on the many lessons he learns along the journey and how they shape him into the great leader he is today.

  • Episode 156 - Armageddon pt 3 – Ghaz goes all in on Hades, and Yarrick goes all in on pissing Ghaz off.

    On today’s cast we conclude our coverage of the 2nd war of Armageddon. With the events of Hades Hive driving Ghaz crazy, including some fun response to an attempted air assault. So much so what he fails to notice the imperial forces bearing down on him. From there we cover the turning of the war in the favor of the defenders. After that we follow Ghaz and Yarrick in the actions after the war and how they lead up to the 3rd war.

  • Episode 155 - Armageddon pt 2 – the orks are here, and luckily the planetary leader is an idiot. But there is a hero waiting in the wings to rise up and become a legend.

    On today’s cast we continue our coverage of the second war of Armageddon with the Orks arrival on the planet and Von Strab’s immediate decision to make all the worst decisions possible about said arrival. From, just sending troops to their doom, to deciding that the orks would run away in fear from his greatness, and of course to his attempts at using thousand or so year old rockets. But, we then jump into the true hero of the imperium the great Commissar Yarrick, a man so brave and so stoic, only he decides when he passes out from pain!

  • Episode 154 - Armageddon pt 1 – a planet that is a hellscape, a future hero of the imperium ascends, and the greatest ork to ever be born is reborn.

    On today’s cast we begin our coverage of the 2nd war of Armageddon (seriously this place sucks!). With an opening on the planet itself, how it got there, how it is structured, and why it is so important. Then we jump (obviously) into the Steel Legion and their value to the imperium, as well as their unique way of “adhering” to the codex. From there we jump over to the origin story of the great and only Yarrick!! Only to then talk about the equally amazing but greener Ghaz! We then close out talking about the arrival of Ghaz and the orks on Armageddon.
