Using our super objective and scientific system, we go through the books that fell roughly in the middle, from ranks 29 to 20. But before that, we continue our other series, where Mark explains to JP how to play Epic like he's five. Will he remember the rules? Anything's possible!

Episode 140: Why You Should Play Legions Imperialis

Reports of our deaths have been somewhat exaggerated! We are back! In this short episode, to get back into the swing of things, we discuss why you (yes YOU) should get into Legions Imperialis. This will serve to set up our upcoming series about how to play this epic new game. Afterwards, in Tales of Heresy, we announce how we'll be handling our recap/review of the entire Black Library Horus Heresy series - and how you (yes, again, YOU) can get involved. It's good to be back.

Siege of Terra Special 4: Sons of the Selanar

Not all heroes are Primarchs or First Captains - the First Interlegionnary War contained innumerable tales of ordinary Astartes performing extraordinary deeds. But few tales were as glorious as the odyssey of the warship Sisypheum. In this episode of our Siege of Terra series, we discuss the last ride of the crew of the Sisypheum as they deal with some crazy Moon shit as the Solar System burns around them. We are also delighted to welcome Mark back to the show to chat about Graham McNeill's wonderful sendoff for some of our favourite characters. I expect Sharrowkynn to do something cool.
