Forge the Narrative - Warhammer 40k Podcast 6t2l6z

Guard players are out there, for sure, we know that. but the win percentage has been down as a whole for the faction.  There are lots of reasons why that might be the case.  We talk about how to up those numbers a bit. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned. We also started a Patreon for the FTN show.  This will help us a lot in the form of being able to hire an editor and a few other things.   If it is anywhere within your ability to us on that platform please consider doing so. The link is right here. Astra Militarum are tricky.  There are TONs of unit options for them so it is easy to make a less than optimal army list when you don’t know who your games are going to be against.  Then, as if that wasn’t enough, all the top lists are pretty awesome at taking out everything in the Guard book.  Soooo.. a lot of Guard players have been struggling. Some of those top contenders have been taken down a peg.  The living breathing ecosystem that is the meta has changed and many things that used to prey on the Guard don’t work the same anymore.  Does that open the door to more guard players making it deeper into tournaments undefeated?  Maybe… just maybe. It will still come down to player skill and list design.  Thankfully the missions are set in stone right now at most events.  You know what you’re going to have to do to win games, but it is up to you to actually make it happen.  Guard are far from an auto-win faction.  We inject some food for thought on the subject and hope you have some ideas of your own.

The Dark Angels are an ancient and venerable Chapter.  Counted 1st among their brothers.  Shrouded in mystery. Storied and proud.  We give some insight on where to get started with this army if you are brand new to it or just coming back after a long stint hiding in the Rock. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

The link is right here. The Dark Angels codex has some folks left with mixed feelings.  Some units feel into the pit of legends. There are some new units with some cool rules and then there are a few new detachments that don’t seem to be blowing people out of their seats.  But isn’t that ok?  I mean.. Space Marines books in the past have mostly been about synergies and combos.  Allowing players to mix and match units to give certain effects or challenges to their opponents on the table top.  We don’t dig too deep into that part just yet but more keep it surface level, at where to start with an army list. I believe there is a lot of opportunity in the Dark Angels codex to build around Leader models.  More so than what we’ve seen with the other books thus far as these characters aren’t just sacks of stats but they are also personalities that people have affinity for, things that brought people to the army in the first place. If you like one of the ‘Wings’ in the lore, great… You’re back in business with this book but a lot of the first born flavor has sadly been relegated to the legends category.  I think that may hold people back with a little nostalgia burn but once they get past that… Maybe there is some sweetness there that people haven’t found yet.  Any time you have a book come out that leaves some legacy in the dust it seems to take people a while to find the new best stuff.

This Balance Dataslate changes a lot.  Tons of points updated, some keyword changes, some out right new editions to factions and some subtle clarifications.  This update has it all. A couple of factions are untouched…  It wasn’t just about knocking the top off the heap. It seems like we are closer and closer to actual balance and proactively managing the game.

The link is right here. Daemons and Drukari might be the biggest winners out of all of this but that will remain to be seen over the next few weeks as these changes make their way out to the bigger tournaments.  Daemons will take a knock back from just being allies but might see play as a single faction again as a TON of their units see point reductions. Custodes undoubtedly took too much of a hit after their success after the edition drop.  Now.. maybe they come back.  Point alignments in a pretty big way with this faction. Marines… its tough when Marines are good.  Sometimes they are too good and with the sheer variety of units it seems clear that the game would like there to be fewer ‘easy choices’ and a good way to change that efficiency score is to mess with points. Marine lists will change and we might see those multiple Gladiator lists start to creep up to replace what’s out there now per-dataslate.

I had the fabulous opportunity to stream the Age of Sigmar tournament on the Games Workshop Twitch channel.  As a result I got to witness some absolutely top level Age of Sigmar play and got to hang out with one of the best communities in gaming.

The link is right here. Wow.  Sigmar is thriving and this past weekend witnessed the largest Sigmar tournament to date with almost 400 players from all over the globe.  For some it was a way to close out the ITC season and for others it was the first opportunity in 2024 to try and nab a spot in the World Championships of Warhammer. We recap the event and sing the virtues of the competitors and the community.  The entire group brings such enthusiasm to the event.  It is no wonder why that event is growing every year.  The entire stream team had an amazing time. It didn’t seem like a surprise to people but there were two Cities of Sigmar players in the finals.  It is the most recent book but I don’t think that explains their success.  They were phenomenal players.  The game came down to tiebreakers. Neither player had much left on the table and it was a joy to watch. We’re delighted to continue to represent Discount Games Inc as sponsor of our show. They are helping bring FTN to you.

Now that folks have seen the rules and have an idea what to expect from the Old World.  How do you make those large rank and file units without breaking the bank?  We talk a little bit about that and continue to muse on things to come with the New/Old Game. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show.

We also started a Patreon for the FTN show.  This will help us a lot in the form of being able to hire an editor and a few other things.   If it is anywhere within your ability to us on that platform please consider doing so. The link is right here. There are some amazing tutorials out there on how to make unit fillers for your rank and file games. These are sometimes huge time and money savers as they all you to cut down on the number of specific models you need to complete ranks for those sweet sweet rank bonuses. After the break we talk a little bit about what it takes to make a ‘good’ 40k army as well.  There is so much talk out there on what people are hoping and waiting for from a Balance Data slate that I think some people have taken their eye off of the basics. At this point we all know what the mission cards require us to do.  We need to have units in our list that are capable of that. These are the ‘new’ building blocks of 40k.  TONS of games are being played out there and the ones that are doing the best have a lot of list in their list… if you know what I mean.  Actually, you don’t have to guess, you just have to listen to this show. ha!

New Year, Old World.  See what I did there?  We dive into the Old World rules and talk a little about what is old and what is new.  The game feels very much the same but there are some big differences.  Is it better?  You decide! Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

The link is right here. The Old World rules feel a lot like the old editions of Fantasy Battles but it’s not all the same.  It feels like there are honest quality of life improvements in the system but it maintains feel and nostalgia of the rank and flank game we knew and loved. Knew and Loved?  Has time ed enough to where this feels cool again?  Will it draw in players from yesteryear or possibly just draw folks away from Age of Sigmar?  It’s a different enough game where players will likely play both. There is a lot of talk out there about the Legacy factions and will you or won’t you be able to play them at events.  We don’t talk about that here but we certainly will on future episodes.  For now… I think people will really enjoy getting their hands on a freshened up rules set with familiar mechanics   All the models are fantastic.  Bring on the SQUARE BASES!

Happy Holidays All.  In this episode we talk about how some savvy generals have made quite a splash with the new Necron codex breaking out some old favorites with new detachments.

The link is right here. I apologize that this episode is a little later coming than I expected but I was doing my annual binge of the entire extended cuts of Lord of the Rings. It just ended.. ha! We talk about the Necrons and Ad Mech this episode. The Necrons seem to be doing a little better than the Ad Mech right out of the gate but I honestly think that has more to do with the fact people we ‘ready to go’ with the Necrons more than the Ad Mech players have been.  Ad Mech hasn’t been doing a lot of work for the last edition and half or so.   Will that change?

We break down the ins and outs of the brand new game Legions Imperialis.  Its fun, back and forth action with a whole new line of models.. plus some that have been out a while that you can bring in from other games.  The rulebook has everything you need to know to get going in just one purchase. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

The link is right here. We gush a little bit about the new game from Games Workshop.  It’s an interesting new take on a venerable classic.  Space Marine Epic came out a long time ago and was one of my first purchases with my own dollars in the hobby.  That games brought in lots of factions and maybe we’ll see them one day but Legions Imperialis takes place in the Horus Heresy timeline with just Space Marine legions and Solar Auxliera at the moment. With that said, you still have TONS of options and different ways to build your fighting force based.  You can even bring in flyers from Aeronautic and Titans from Titanicus.  Wow.  Pretty neat to be able to do that and the rules seem to be pretty streamlined to expand as you grow with the game. We gush on about the new rules and the possibilities.  In the middle of the show we sit down with our main vendor sponsor for the show to talk about what’s going on with his show and how you can save on the new action.  We also talk about why you might want to hit him up for pre-orders in the future.

Paul had the privilege of going to PAX Unplugged this past weekend to demo games of 40k Combat Patrol and got to meet a TON of new players/hobbyist. PAX is definitely growing and one of the biggest draws of the entire convention was Games Workshop’s paint and take activity.  SOOOOOOOO much painting done by people brand new to miniatures over the weekend.

The link is right here. Paul had the opportunity to teach 40k to a ton of new people over the weekend.  Hundreds…  it was amazing.  People who might have been familiar with rolling dice or using figures for another game like D&D or something but not too many of them had done any wargaming in the past.  It was so cool to see their eyes light up when models started getting destroyed or they would land a successful charge. Pew Pew and Crunch noises were definitely made by one and all.  Some folks just wanted to see what it was all about and it was clear that some folks were looking for an excuse to dive right in. A lot of folks that  came by the booth did so after swinging by the Paint and Take hobby area GW had set up in the middle of the convention floor.  This allowed new people to take their first shot at painting an Infernus Marine using contrast and layer paints.  It was pretty amazing to see their faces light up when they held something in their hands they could be proud of.  A big percentage of the people blew past the examples given to them to create something truly unique to their vision.

We give a broad rundown of the Warhammer World Championships and Grand Narrative Event that happened last weekend in Atlanta, GA USA.  It was amazing. Some of the best 40k ever to be played by some of the best players of all time in a competition setting.  On the other side of the doors were hundreds of 40k players having the time of their lives in the Grand Narrative.  A true event to behold.

The link is right here. Paul and Adam were on the mics live streaming the whole weekend while Red and his fam were playing in the Grand Narrative.  We run down our experiences this episode.  You owe it to yourself to put this event on your bucket list. We definitely expected Chaos Space Marines to do well but it was difficult to call them out as the winner.  There were top tier players piloting almost every faction in the game over the weekend.  Leagues of Votann came out of obscurity, Aeldari almost kept their top spot, Space Marines came in second with Marnues Calgar of all people in the list! A Hoard style CSM list took it down in the end by being able to choke the primary and causing bad trades with their Space Marine opponent.  That is the extreme high level take. The games played on stream were spectacular and you should check them out over on the Warhammer twitch feed. We’re delighted to continue to represent Discount Games Inc as sponsor of our show.

Assault is dead, Long Live Assault!  There was an overwhelming amount of shooting in the game just after the edition launched.  Has that changed? If it hasn’t changed for you, maybe you haven’t seen what’s coming from Space Marines, World Eaters and the like. We think it’s back, baby. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

The link is right here. In the last episode we talked about how World Eaters took second in other episodes how terrain can be such a factor.  At more and more events we’re seeing them with better terrain layouts and more variety being an option for what generals can take.  With the release of the Space Marine book the doors are blown wide off. We talk just a little bit ing them as Blood Angels but they are by no means limited to that path. There are at least two, and arguably three, detachments that breath a ton of life into assault based armies.  They give them tricks we haven’t seen since the edition flip and players are start to turn on to them.  Advance and charge, reliable hitting and wounding in any phase of the game, etc. We are seeing assault armies like World Eaters and Space Marine variants get a ton of from Character/Leader models that quite literally give them the juice to get across the table and maximize with the opponent.  We hope this is a thing that persists through the codex releases.

A phenomenal general took gold at the Games Workshop US Open event in Tampa last week with amazing play and doing it with none other than the Sisters of Battle, Adeptus Sororitas.  No one would have expected this.  We break down the top two lists. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

The link is right here. Wow.  World Eaters being 2nd place in the edition where everyone says assault is dead blows my mind.  This speaks to the pilot of the list, of course, but also to the fact that there is plenty left to uncover in the early days of 10th. Jeffery K taking the top spot with an army that EVERYONE seems to have counted out is spectacular.  He took his collection to the big show and came out with the gold.  I hope I get to see him in Atlanta. When we talk about solid play making up for some list efficiencies this is what we mean.  The balance dataslate did a lot to level the playing field and now we’re seeing what players can do with it.  Still.. I don’t think anyone would have predicted these two army lists topping the charts without being familiar with the players.  Congrats to Jeffery and Jack, well earned and well fought.

We have the new Space Marine Codex in hand and it’s awesome! This codex delivers on form and function.  The detachments within let you build out any Space Marine chapter you know and love but does not really force or even imply you need them painted a certain color.  What do you think about that? Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show.

The link is right here. There is no doubt that this is a must have for any Space Marine player. More than just the detachments letting you mimic Space Marine chapters you know and love you have a lot of options when it comes to using your own personal collection. We talk about a couple of the stand out units like the Company Heroes and Aggressors making their way up to one of the top units.  We think this codex with breath a lot of life into the collections some Space Marine players have 100%.

This is half an episode!  We got delayed last week and this episode should have come out then.  Very sorry!    We run down a recent Horus Heresy Tournament and then talk a little bit about the current 40k Meta.

The balance dataslate dropped last week with huge quality of life improvements on both sides of the table.  What does this mean to you?  I know a lot of players found themselves with a couple of hundred points to spare.  Some other players.. Not so much. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

The link is right here. Aeldari definitely take a bit of a hit in this dataslate with point increases and changes to devastating wounds.  The dev wounds thing is still hugely powerful against vehicles and large models but how hoards are a little more insulated from the effect.  The point changes will no doubt cause some generals to have re-think about their lists but we theorize the night spinners and fire prisms will still make it into lists but we might see a fewer Warp Spiders and Shadow Specters. Several units saw their sizes messed with.  This can be an increase or decrease.  Balance comes in many forms… Armies like Death Guard are getting a whole new lease on life but is it enough?  We don’t really cover the nuances of Death Guard on the show but you can expect that and some army lists for several factions coming next week!

How much can the first codex of the new edition tell us about where the game is going?  I think we need more data.  The Tyranids book brings us a lot of detachments, new units and new abilities.  It stacks up really well against a lot of what we see out there in the field right now.  Triple Norn Emissaries might be a real thing. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

The link is right here. We cover the new units currently up for preorder and spend a lot time on the Emissary itself.  It’s pretty nice with the ability to shrug off damage and put a lot of OC right where you want it. We don’t get too much into the strategy of Tyranids with this show but we do ooh and ahh over some cool abilities and what sort of power opponents might expect to see right out of the game. OC and Battleshock are becoming more and more of a thing as the game develops.  I like to see this.  A meaningful morale mechanic and units being able to compete for points is an excellent additional layer or two of balance.

We are re back!  All of us can feel that sinking feeling when we line up against Aeldari but never fear.  There is hope!  Terrain, Tactics, Good Luck, Good Draws, it can all help.  The faction is tough but it is far from unbeatable.  We talk about some of the things that’s been working for us. Hey folks, Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast of the show.

We welcome Adam back from commenting on the WTC that recently happened in Europe.  We kick the show off talking about an Astra Militarum list Paul took recently.  The list preformed really well.  It had a Tank Commander with a Demolisher cannon, 2 Wyverns, 2 Manticores, 2 Earth Shaker Carriges, 3 scout sentinels and 3 Hell Hounds.  It sort of seemed weird not taking Lord Mecharius but Ursla was all this list needed to rock the house. We discuss the finer points of things to consider when forming your anti Aeldari strategy.  We certainly aren’t singling Aeldari players out by any stretch but they are the most winning faction in the field right now and a lot of players are flocking to them if they weren’t players of the faction before.  Aeldari are awesome, I love the faction as well.  Its just a nice opportunity to take a deeper look at what ‘can be done.’ In part 2 we talk about Yncarne management. Wowzers, this model can create quite the problem for some players. We’re delighted to continue to represent Discount Games Inc as sponsor of our show. They are helping bring FTN to you.

We are re back!  Red, Tanya and Paul jibber jabber about recent tournaments, Ork lists and base sizes.  Tanya pulled down best painted, player’s choice, at an event recently and Paul is back from the ATC and GenCon.

The link is right here. Tanya opens the show talking about her recent tournament experience.  She took her an amazingly painted army out for a spin.  The list was unconventional but she got a few wins and brought home some hardware. Paul and the Wrong Way Kids had a blast at the most recent ATC but they didn’t do near as well as she did… ha.  That’s ok.  The event was extremely fun and it’s exciting to play as part of a team.  You win and lose as a group.  Spending time with your best buds playing 40k is a great way to spend a weekend away. We do talk about base sizes and how these types of things are becoming more and more of how to play the game in an expected way against opponents.  In home games you can make a lot of allowances and all that but when you travel and play against people you might not know the ‘social contract’ and tournament rules/restrictions matter a lot.

We are re back!  Season 2 is in motion and we hear from Red and his recap of going 5-1 with World Eaters of all things at the LSO the weekend before.  We talk a little bit about the America Team Championship as well.  That event was last weekend but we recorded this before and it’s a bit of a lead up.

If you could tweak anything about the Aeldari and how they work now what would you choose?  Fate Dice certainly seem to be a culprit. We welcome some new patrons on our brand new Patreon and it is amazing to see folks be a part of the show and help it keep going. More episodes are on the way!

This ideally gives you something neat to listen to on your way to work, or on the way back home. Maybe you can even listen while you are painting or modeling! Please follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook! FTN mostly focuses on 40k, but again you will see in the first few episodes we take a severe deep dive into nerdom. These have been a blast to record and I hope they help the time for you. We are now on Pandora!! If you’re looking for another place to listen or you’ve shifted to that platform you can find us there. FORGE THE NARRATIVE (iTunes Page) Alternatively you can subscribe via your own iTunes, and it should update our podcast when we post a new one.
