Episode 3: New Stuff, 30k on a Budget, and Fear to Tread

In this third episode of the Age of Darkness Podcast we do the obligatory new stuff segment and talk about some recent games we've played. We then argue that it is indeed possible to get into 30k on a budget, and go through a bit of an intellectual exercise in order to prove it. Finally, in Book Club we discuss Fear to Tread by James Swallow, and conclude as is our way with the two-week hobby challenge. Thanks for listening!

The Age of Darkness Episode 2

In this second episode of the Age of Darkness Podcast we talk about some recent and upcoming releases from Forge World (Warlord Titan!!!!) and discuss the army lists we plan on fielding in an upcoming event (while struggling with how hard it is to fit everything we want in a 30k army). In Book Club we analyse Mary Sues and Lords of Iron in Angel Exterminatus by Graham McNeil. Finally we conclude with the two-week hobby challenge and see if someone is going into the box of shame. We are overwhelmed with the warm response the inaugural episode of our podcast was received with, and we hope that we continue to entertain! Thanks for listening!
