The 40k Lorecast

On this episode we cover where the vast majority of the citizens of the Imperium live. In fact probably close to 90% of them live in Hive Cities. Are they good places to live? no, in fact might be the worst. Crime? yep. Daemons? yep. Roving bands of raiders and marauders under your feet? also yep. Not to mention corruption, disease, industrial accidents, and corpse starch. So hop in for a fun trip to an imperial hive city.

The 40k Lorecast
04/15/24 • 59 min
On this episode we begin our deep dive into the lore of the Necrons. Starting back at the dawn of the galaxy and the rise of the Necrontyr. Followed with a very deep dive into their part and experiences in the war in heaven(s). We will then conclude with them entering a very long nap while the Silent King goes on a galactic walk about.
On this episode we cover some of the post heresy actions of the imperium. Trillions are dead, Terra is a trash heap, and the galaxy is burning, so what do you do? simple... revenge!!!! Did Guilliman have a great plan to restore the imperium? yes he did, did anyone listen.. not really. Do the Lords of Terra step up to help save humanity or just help themselves? The Lion and Leman go on a "punch traitors in face" quest. and more.

On today’s episode, we dive into the Sisters of Silence. We start with an in depth dive into the Pariah gene. From there we talk about the mysterious rise of the sisters from the unification wars into the great crusade with the daughters of the Crow. We then talk about what a sister of silence is and how they function as an organization. We then move onto their growth during the great crusade and their “disappearance” after the fall of the emperor. We then close on their resurgence since the return of Guilliman.
Episode 31 - The Necrons Pt 2
The 40k Lorecast
04/22/24 • 78 min
On this episode we continue our dive into the lore of the Necrons. We pick up as they begin to awaken in the galaxy. One that is very much on fire and getting worse. We dive into the process and phases of a tomb world awakening. From there we dive into some of the incredibly advanced weaponry of the Necrons (including a John rant about what Gauss is and is not!). Then we finish up with what the Necrons are up to in the start of 10th edition.
Episode 6 - Horus strikes at the Loyalist forces and the Loyalists begin to strike back at Horus
The 40k Lorecast
10/30/23 • 69 min
As Horus continues pushing towards Terra his forces are still waging a war of disruption against the loyalist. They can not afford to face the loyaist forces at full strength, but the loyalist begin to fight back and outwit the traitor legions.
On this episode we cover: Alpha legion being sneaky, Prospero post Space Wolves, why Ultramarines hate Word Bearers, and Leman Russ doing hard core Leman Russ stuff
04/29/24 • 108 min
On today's quite long episode we talk about what is a Space Marine. We realized we could not talk about a Space Marine without also talking about their power armor. Rather than make two short episodes we just did a super long one.
Today we start by talking about how a Space Marine is recruited, tested, and then turned into a Space Marine. Do at least 2 of the organs serve no function? Yes! We then we dive into what happens when you add a super suit of armor to a super soldier. *Spoiler alert* some of the lore around what can and can not negatively affect a space marine does not line up great with the tabletop rules *cough cough, night fighting. poison weapons, popping smoke, cough cough*
Episode 17 - Dark Angels Pt2 - Eliminate the Heresy!!..... Wait... are we the heresy too?
The 40k Lorecast
01/16/24 • 66 min
On this Episode we cover the Dark Angels after they are reunited with their Primarch. Their reemergence as the imperium's main fighting legion, the actions during the Heresy, and their actions post Heresy. If you thought the 1st Legion was good at keeping secrets, wait till you see how far the Dark Angels are willing to go to keep secrets. Also, they really like revenge, like a lot!
Episode 24 - The Ordo Xenos
The 40k Lorecast
03/05/24 • 64 min
On this episode we cover the creation of a certain inquisitor's chapter. We talk about the galaxy of necessity that born the Ordo Xenos and some of its key elements, including a brief origin (and a badass one at a that) of the Death Watch. We then dive into the necessity of the Ordo Xenos both to the imperial structure but also for the citizenry. Lastly we debate which of the three branches of the Inquisition do the least harm.
Episode 12 - Ork Leaders being the biggest, greenest, meanest, the sneakiest, and even the brainiest....
The 40k Lorecast
12/12/23 • 79 min
On today's episode we discuss some of the endless Ork Leaders and their accomplishments both big and large (Orks never have small accomplishments).
How big was the beast? Who is stronger the Emperor of Mankind or a random Ork Mekboy? Zagstruk using the ultimate power of belief. And of course Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka.
