Ep.10 - Big Summer Preview, Pre-painted 40k Terrain, & Malediction

James and Bart are sweating through a massive heatwave to bring you a brand-new episode packed with huge Warhammer news and board game reviews!   We kick things off with the massive Warhammer Big Summer Preview, sharing our thoughts on the official pre-painted 40k terrain, the 20-mission Exodites co-op campaign, the new Old World starter, and the polarizing Necromunda rules wipe. We also jump straight into our recent tabletop obsessions. We break down our first impressions of the highly tactical Stalker Board Game from Awaken Realms, and explain exactly why we paused all our personal painting projects to play Malediction, a fast-paced skirmish and card game hybrid. Finally, we take some time to honor the late, great John Blanche, discussing his massive influence on the grimdark aesthetic and the incredible INQ28 movement. Grab a cold drink, turn the fan all the way up, and let's get into it!

Ep.9 - Armageddon is coming! Starcraft shipping in progress. Warhammer Skulls festival and our personal hobby projects.

James and Bart are back on the mic after a short break to tackle the massive wave of incoming Warhammer 40,000 11th Edition news. We break down the incredible new cinematic trailer, discussing everything from the classic Rogue Trader easter eggs to some wild conspiracy theories about the Emperor’s current state on the Golden Throne. We also dive heavy into the recent Warhammer Skulls festival, sharing our hopes for Dawn of War 4, the constant support for Space Marine 2, and the reality of Total War DLC fatigue. Finally, we crack open the studio doors to talk about the massive StarCraft Board Game shipping wave, our recent obsession with Malediction and Moonstone, and what we have been reading from the Black Library. Grab a coffee, clear a spot on your painting mat, and let's get into it!

We dive deep into the new plastic, discussing why the updated Ork sculpts steal the show, how the Space Marines hold up, and what the latest lore drops mean for the grimdark future. Beyond 40k, we talk about embracing your hobby backlog (aka the "Pile of Opportunity"), the insane sales numbers for the new StarCraft board game, and quick updates on Star Wars: Legion and Moonstone. Grab a coffee, clear a spot on your painting mat, and let's get into the briefing!
