The 40k Lorecast

Episode 126 - The Blood Ravens pt 2 - the events of Dawn of war 2 and 3.

On today’s cast we conclude our coverage of the blood ravens. With a brief trip to Dawn of War Soulstorm, and then a hard dive into the Dawn of War 2 series. From the chapter fighting off the orks, the eldar, the tyrandids. And then later fighting off chaos, and discovering the betrayal within their own chapter, and fighting that off, even a greater daemon. From there we go into Dawn of War 3 and the wild events of that game, namely them once again fighting a greater daemon, along with orks, chaos, eldar, etc. We then talk about the latest lore on the Blood Ravens in modern 40k, with them joining Guilliman in his crusade. We then close out with some of our theories on the origins of the Blood Ravens, that we hope will get revealed by GW in the coming editions.

On today’s cast we conclude our coverage of the alpha legion with a start on the events of Pluto and the first (of many) recorded deaths of their Primarch(s). From there we move on to Eskrador and another death of their Primarch(s). After that we jump into some of our favorite codex short stories on alpha legion. Trying to show the nefarious and elaborate plans they have been enacting all around the galaxy for the last 10,000 years.

Episode 123 - The Alpha Legion pt2, Alph legion take their place amoungst the legions (and irritate all of them in the process)

On today’s cast we continue our coverage of the Alpha legion. We open with our own theories of what happened to them during the Horus Heresy, did they take different sides, did they go their own path, or maybe they were just weird and ineffective. We then talk about their crazy infiltration during the great crusade and how that set them up for some of their more wild events during the Heresy. Namely the infiltration of the Raven Guard after Isstvan 5, which is absolutely crazy. Then their very odd interaction with the White Scars out in Chondax. And their more direct interaction with the Space wolves in Alaxxes. We then close with Alpharius infiltration the shattered legions.

Episode 122 - The Alpha Legion pt1 the rise of the 20th.

On today’s cast we begin out coverage of the great enigma that is Alpha legion. And boy is the a doosy. Opening with the origins of the 20th legion, or really the rumored origins of the 20th legion. Their early hints at their existence and purpose, and our theories on what they were really for. From there we go through the numerous stories of Alpharius and Omegon, are they all lies? After those we get into the Alpha legion as part of the great crusade. Their insanely intricate plans, that really just annoyed their brother Primarchs, while also blowing the minds of everyone else. We then close with the two brothers meeting with the Cabal.
