On this episode we cover where citizens of the Imperium can live. yeah most of them are not great. Unless you are in the nobility class, in which case most are awesome. Do you want to live on a planet of munitions? Planet of food growth? How about a Forge World or a Knight World. Personally we would pass on sentinel or Fortress Words, but you do you. * Also sorry for the lozenges, but it was that or blow everyone's ears out with violent coughing*
