BONUS EPISODE: The Anphelion Project ft. 40k Badcast

This episode was amazing, please make this a semi-regular bonus series!

Please let this be the start of a new Lions Led By Dreadnaughts series. I'd happily subscribe to a second patreon of just more of this

Lmao i also chose krieg cause they look cool and prepared myself to field questions about it

If you do another one of these types of episodes, you could have one that focuses on the Siege of Vraks. Another story of a series of military blunders that would leave millions dead.

This was just fun to listen to. Never played 40k as I refuse to play anything that requires rulers and laser pointers, but I always loved listening to my friends chat about the lore while I painted their minis.

Fucking fire stuff here lads — thank you for sharing. Would happily pay a second Patreon feed with more of this content.

PS: Do not buy any Forgeworld models. They suck, they are expensive, and they are gradually all being phased out. If you want specific things that GW doesn't make, you basically have to go for third party kits. There's a shitload of them tho

Re: corpse infrastructure. I just want to point out there is a Warhammer novel literally called 'Road of Skulls'

It's the Eldar (space elves) who have a person's soul stuck in their war suits.

Hey folks and friends, this was an incredibly dope episode. I’ve played 40k a total of maybe twice but the lore has always intrigued me. This was a really great way to give me more of what I like about the setting without having to pull out a laser pointer. Would love to hear more of this incredibly niche content! Thanks again for all of it.

Actually, I enjoyed this 5x as much as you did

I've realized that my biggest problem with 40k might be that when people describe something I think "that sounds cool!" But then I look it up and visually it's kinda lame.

In desperate need for yall to cover the Siege of Vraks 👀

Planet Piss was a side project William Murderface of Dethklok fame failed to get off the ground

Really the Orks are the closest to "good"... by 40k standards. They just want a good fight and a big WAAAAAAAGH

I am extremely excited about this crossover

Blank slate to 40k universe and loved this 🔥

This is the crossover i didnt know i needed, i turned 37 last year...my body said hey bud, no more fuckin gluten...and my response to that was...buy little plastic guys and paint them....sometimes it be like that

grey plastic, corvettes and bespoke 12 speed street bikes, all cost the same somehow

I need more of this. Excellent.

This took me back; Grandma's Boy was the one movie I had on my PSP in high school! Also excellent crossover...now do the Siege of Vraks

Scions led by Servitors lets goooo!

Didn't know very much at all about 40k and i had a blast listening to this one! Glad you had fun recording it. Would def b down for more 40k-related bonus eps in the future.

This episode was hilarious and awesome. I need more Lions led by Servitors in my life

Needed this. My first tatoo was an Alpha Legion insignia. A First and Only tatoo sounds rad.

This and LLBR are fantastic and hitting two points of my need brain!

Oh shit Joe are you going to start doing 40k stuff??

A new side series looms?!?Thoroughly enjoyed listening to you all talk about the 40K universe and would love to hear more!

Oh the actual 40k Blackhawk Down would be Raid on Kastorel-Novem, when Elysians and Raven Guard space marines launch a kill mission against an Ork mek that ended up going horribly wrong.

biblically accurate oregon 4x beavers are 100% white nationalists tho

The castigation of capitulation is hilarious

Grandma's Boy rules!

The Tyranids are not invincible, the Necrons are a pretty hard counter to them. Of course, that’s not a comfort…

I did actually like the malleable nature of resin with one specific Mechanicus kit where you have to bend the metal tentacles yourself.

Joe, y'gotta read the Nemesis the Warlock comics from 2000 AD. Not only is it a HUGE influence on 40K, there's an issue where Colonel Chivington of the Sand Creek Massacre gets eaten by a time travelling tyrannosaur. Five stars, no notes.

Do the Siege of Vraks and my soul is yours!

Does anyone else remember the gaming magazine Inquest? They did a semi regular humour Contest of Champions series, where they pitted various nerd properties against each other. One match up I remember was the Borg against Warhammer Orks. The Borg easily best the Orks in combat, but the Orks took the victory after the Borg fled the arena. When they start to assimilate the Orks, the Borg Queen realised the Orks were so dumb, but so quick to reproduce, they would not only lower the intelligence of the Collective, the Orks would also spawn the Collective into extinction.

More 40k content

YEEEEEEEEEES I NEED A GODDAMN TANITH CREST AAAAH

At some point you need to invite Robert Evans or you'll hurt his feelings

This was excellent

I'm a man heading into my middle 30s, so this is so incredibly my shit.

I know nothing about 40k or model games but I absolutely loved this! More please!

If I were to start reading the novels, which ones would be best to start?

Oh man, I need my 40K group to listen to this. They are all mostly former military.

Fun episode guys

Sick! Joe, have you read/listened to The Macharian Crusade (omnibus)? It's pretty sick, also big focus on a tank crew.

what ever is fun for Joe is fun for us.

Fine cast? Barf!

Hi, first off 10/10 I would like to make the following requests on Bonus Episodes: 1. NECRONS, no more explanation. 2. Trench Crusade dudes doing a similar episode. 3. Please write Trench Crusade short story/novella/novel.

Resin models were a sin against everything good.

Pennsylvania’s unique unit would be Amish technicals. Horse & buggy with a .50 cal mounted on top.

Warhammer is like evangelion, homestuck and berserk. As in soon or later you are going to talk about or watch/play it because of the media you enjoyed is connected in some way. All roads lead to those 4

I think it would be a good April fool special if you do a epsiode on 40k or star wars.

Can I get more info on the plagerized book that was mentioned? I tried to Google to get more information and nothing is popping up. Just a bunch of stories of a vet who stole 450k dollars.

I really enjoyed this and would enjoy more 40k lore-pisodes

Full 40k lore series you cowards. J/k <3 YOUUUUU

RESPECT for admitting you have a Wheel of Time tattoo.

Warhammer 40Kassabian

40k bonus series. Come on!

As someone that has been subscribed to the 40k Badcast from like, episode 6? This is a crossover I never expected, but is very very welcome.

This is like a perfect representation of why 40k is so great. It's such an expansive setting so rich with lore, history, factions, and characters, that you can just pick a completely random situation happening in the galaxy and it will be an engaging starting point.

Ork players are usually that annoying but cute and harmless nerd. Black Templars players are fash. All girls play tyranids because they're just cute little guys, and one of the models is literally a walking angry vagina (Tervigon) 💖

I'm on a break from the Rogue trader CRPG so I wouldn't be in too bad 40k bubble, because it makes me annoying to be around... And you do this to (everyone who has to be around) me??

Let’s gooooo 40K, let’s get the Carcharodon pod!

Fun fact: the Tyranids were ripping off the Zerg, they looked way different before Starcraft 1 came out.

Not into 40k but if yall do like a video series, I'm watching

IMPERIUM JURASSIC PARK

YES YES 40K FINALLY

Almost surprised it isn't PancreasNoWork or Adeptus Ridiculous. As someone who has way too much 40k knowledge and models, I encourage this

Ferda Emprah!! Can't wait to listen to this. He could do a whole separate podcast on the stupid battles of the Imperium.

Someone please tell Joe about the 30k Basilisk/Medusa kit that comes with an interior and crew and separate ammo racks and different breech depending on which gun you build it with https://www.warhammer.com/en-GB/shop/solar-auxilia-basilisk-medusa-2024

Holy shit you guys covered Tyranid Park!

I also recently got into warhammer minis. I'm doing up a space wolves army right now

I dropped everything to listen to this.

I’ve been dreaming about LLBD Warhammer and Trench crusade content I swear

Just sat down for lunch at work and this pops up the very same second. As a 40k nerd and long time LLBD fan, I am beyond hyped

Finally, the Joe talking about 40k lore era begins!!!
