Amid the sea of Cogfort madness, there is an island of calm…Dave and Dan are going to talk about miniatures games that are not Sigmar!  Say it isn’t so!  We thought it would be refreshing and provide a bit of perspective to deep dive some of the “other” games we play.   How to get started?  How do turns work?  How does shooting and combat work?  How do you win?  We hope you enjoy the change of pace as much as we did…Kill Team rocks!  In Liber, Dave talks us through Heresy Assassins.  By the way, don’t forget to drop us a note and tell us which is your favorite sound clip on the show!

Another awesome tome!  So many moving parts for these glass cannons with knives, but when they all come together, most frightening!  A Shadow Queen that can be resurrected, a manifestation that removes Ward Saves…and there’s more.  Like the Treelord Ancient in the last episode, Brendan again gives Dan pause in his excitement for a Hero in this book…what could it be?  The big question…will Dan be throwing down with a four Shrine list…and a large side order of Blood Hags with that please!

The guys are most excited about this book, and rightfully so.  The Sylvaneth Battletome has arrived at a store near you, and will soon be overgrowing the battlefields!  The Tree problem has been solved and this book is packed with solid Warscrolls and solid rules.  We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed reviewing this awesome Tome.  Be warned…The Everqueen is better than ever!

Four days of an alternate reality…known better as Adepticon!  The crew is all here, and we recap our days at this great event.  Dave brings us some Heresy lore recs in Liber, and Brendan runs us through the April Battlescroll.  Lots going on…plenty of great listening.  Congratulations to all of our friends who won awards this year, as well as to Brendan and his team for another incredible creation!  Also, one of the best parts of Adepticon is seeing friends, some of which we have not seen for literally years!  Hope everyone who made it had a great time, and that those listeners who were unable to join us are able to make the trip next year.  Also, we are working on Dave’s sound quality…

If you’ve got the bones, they are happy to do business…Ossiarch Bonereapers Battletome review time!  Despite some issues, mostly related to points, this book has some interesting back-of-the-house choices, including scary Manifestations and two solid Armies of Renown.  Dan despises those Crawlers…leave my trees alone!  Dave was unable to join us…he was hard at work hosting the Universe of Armoured Fighting Vehicles Regional Series.  He will of course be joining us for the ACon Recap in Episode 186.  Speaking of Adepticon, safe travels to all those heading to Milwaukee in the next several days.

Smoke and mirrors, illusions & fate…all parts of the grand plans of the master of change!  We really enjoyed the entirely new way this army will play.  We try to unravel the complex interactions of the new rule set, as well as some of the crazy potential for silliness…for you, not your opponent!  A great book in our opinion…

Dan recalls his adventures at the March of the Phalanx…an amazing two-day event organized by our equally amazing cohost Dave!  Friends, dice…excellent!  Brendan and Dan also give their initial reactions to the Lumineth/Tzeentch previews…both promise to bring all kinds of chaos to the gaming tables of Sigmar!  Most exciting is that both Battletomes will be live in short order!

Join us as we all become…gardeners!  The crew here at The Cube are all in for the new Nurgle book.  Daemons, Mortals, little of both…lots of solid stuff here.  One of the Armies of Renown is VERY interesting.  So join us as we walk through The Garden and find out how this tome works.  Just so you know, Nurglings are a fan favorite!

Another Battlescroll…meh.  Not real excited about this one, but some significant changes that need to be discussed, especially for those Khorne players out there.  Also, we finally reveal Dan’s Mystery Army for March of the Phalanx.  A few pics will be dropped on the Pants Mafia Discord and maybe on Facebook as well.  There is also a great deal of excitement in the studio for Papa Nurgle’s Battletome…get ready for a wild ride in Episode 182!

The whole crew is together for a 2025 review show…but wait…there’s more!  We also take a look into our crystal ball and try and guess some of the goodness we may have to look forward to in the coming year.  During show open we have our annual gift exchange, and the holiday spirit is alive and well on the Cube!  Thanks as always to our sponsor, Universe of Armored Fighting Vehicles…
