    Jan 20 2026

    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.

    Episode 120 - 1st (ish) War of Armageddon - The Battle for Armageddon
    Jan 6 2026

    On today’s cast we jump into the events of the 1st war of Armageddon (sort of). We open with a dive into what Armageddon really is and where it actually came from (damn it ad-mech). Then we talk about the Grey Knights, doing a bit deeper dive into them and their function in the imperium. Then we get to the warp and Angron doing a YOLO into the galaxy. After all that we get to the meat and potatoes of the conflict, the planetary guard, the Space Wolves, and now the Grey Knights. Then onto the final battle itself and the breaking of the black blade! We then close out on the Inquisition’s decision post battle and how that is not going to go over well in part 2 of our cast.

This is the best 40k podcast I've listened to and I've tried a lot of them. These 2 have a great way of dumbing down complex lore so even someone as simple as me can understand and enjoy it. A*

I'm new to the enormous 40K universe, it was a bit intimidating to begin with. John and Brad have made it much easier to digest! The two of them have made me laugh way too hard on drives through England's Midlands this winter. Thank you both :)

Excellent humour and highly informative
