  • Hello lovely people. Apologies for the late episode but I and my guest Matt Morosoli were struck down with the Con-Crud post Terracon so this episode was recorded when we felt well enough to do so.

    This week we review the brand new missions for 40k goodness from the Pariah Nexus deck, in full. We discuss the changes to Actions, Stratagem use and the incentives for us players to start stacking up more Battleline in those lists!

  • Two weeks ago we had the pleasure of attending the first ever Warhammer exhibition tournament at Dreamhack, an esports convention! 4 different teams faced off in a round robin to determine the champion.

Ben performed incredibly well this weekend and we go over his list and his strategies and preparation for the event.

We go over his matchups in detail. To subscribe to part 2 and learn about the games that were played please check out our patreon patreon.com/aow40k.com

  • Hello lovelies, this week I record two poignant segments, first up is with the Scared One himself Skari, who as a faction specialist is an expert on adapting and countering the meta.

    Second segment is with one of the great minds of 40k, Pumba of Team Poland, who captained his nation to victory at the WTC last year.

    We talk how to counter and work into a hostile meta, adapting and identifying ways to eke back a bit of value when times are tough.

    Hope you love it!

  • Hello everybody! Here we have the brand new (maligned) golden banana codex review. Unfortunately Jack was waylaid at an event so the lovely John Legend joined us for this review. But fear not, after pioloting custodes at the WTC level John is well placed to pick up the slack.

    This is not a good book, either internally or external balance wise. But we do our best to polish this one up for hopefully a truthful but overall good listening experience.

    Love you all

    Adam
