Episode 164 – The Iron Hands pt 2 – Ferrus reforms his legion, the Iron Hands path of destruction, and the death of Ferrus.

On today’s episode we open our coverage of the iron hands. Starting with their creation by the emperor and surprisingly lack of lore during the Unification Wars. But then we jump into their actions in the early crusade with their brutal Hammer and the Storm tactics. We then jump over to Medusa. The planet before and then at the arrival of Ferrus. As usual we then close out talking about Ferrus Manus. His arrival on Medusa and his “trials” there as he became a full blown Primarch and then the arrival of the emperor.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Episode 163 – The Iron Hands pt 1 – Were the Iron hands supposed to be traitors?  Or are they just weirdly independent?

On today’s episode we close out our coverage of the white scars with a bit of a different one. We open with Jaghati and the white scars journey back to Terra which introduces us to Dark Glass and some fun reveals about the Navigators. We then cover an epic fight against Mortarian and a Keeper of Secrets. And then skip ahead from the heresy to the scouring with the loss of Jaghati. We jump 10,000 years to cover the White Scars in the 41st millennia. Namely the challenges they are having in modern 40k without Jaghati and how the legion is both functioning but also falling apart without his leadership.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

On today’s episode we continue our coverage of the white scars. We start with Jaghati joining the imperium and getting a crash course in both technology but more importantly the Imperial Truth. From there we follow him and his legion as the Horus Heresy unfolds. With their encounter with the Alpha Legion and then their journey to Prospero. We then cover Jaghati meeting with the shard of Magnus to learn the truth of the Heresy and to make his choice, and then of course the worst sales pitch ever from Mortarian. We then close out on the White Scars civil war that breaks out due to the warrior lodges and Jaghati’s reaction.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

On today’s episode we begin our coverage of the white scars. With a dive into their creation during the Unification Wars, and their rather un-glorified purpose for the emperor. Then into their new role as the star hunters as they became the Emperor’s galaxy scouts. We then jump over the Jaghati Khan. His arrival on Chogoris and how he was able to unify the world, just in time for the Emperor to show up<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

On today’s cast we conclude our coverage of Dante. We spend most of the Episode talking about the events of the Devastation of Baal. From the opening Salvo as Dante tries to delay the incoming hive fleet, through Dante and the remaining survivors furious charge out into the Tyranid lines. We also spend some time jumping over to the moons of Baal as the Flesh Tearers and Knights of Blood make their own stand. We then cover the conclusion of the conflict with the arrival of both Guilliman and Ka’Bandha. After this we jump into the events of Dante after the war, with his elevation to Primaris Marine and his “collecting” of the Lion.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

On today’s cast we continue our coverage of Dante. With his arrival as newly anointed Chapter Master of the Blood Angels and his rebuilding of the chapter. From there we dive deep into the legends of Dante, from killing Skarbrand, to fighting orks on a mountain of dead orks, to being the killing blow on numerous Chaos forces (everything from lords, to sorcerers, all the way to more daemon princes). We then close out with the opening engagements that led to the devastation of Baal and Dante having to be cool with some Necrons for a hot minute.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Episode 156 - Armageddon pt 3 – Ghaz goes all in on Hades, and Yarrick goes all in on pissing Ghaz off.

On today’s cast we continue our coverage of the second war of Armageddon with the Orks arrival on the planet and Von Strab’s immediate decision to make all the worst decisions possible about said arrival. From, just sending troops to their doom, to deciding that the orks would run away in fear from his greatness, and of course to his attempts at using thousand or so year old rockets. But, we then jump into the true hero of the imperium the great Commissar Yarrick, a man so brave and so stoic, only he decides when he passes out from pain!<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Episode 155 - Armageddon pt 2 – the orks are here, and luckily the planetary leader is an idiot.  But there is a hero waiting in the wings to rise up and become a legend.

On today’s cast we begin our coverage of the 2nd war of Armageddon (seriously this place sucks!). With an opening on the planet itself, how it got there, how it is structured, and why it is so important. Then we jump (obviously) into the Steel Legion and their value to the imperium, as well as their unique way of “adhering” to the codex. From there we jump over to the origin story of the great and only Yarrick!! Only to then talk about the equally amazing but greener Ghaz! We then close out talking about the arrival of Ghaz and the orks on Armageddon.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

On Today’s cast we conclude our coverage of the Tanith first and only with a heavy dive into the events of the siege of Verghast. From the opening attack of Verunhive that exposed kind of all the failings of the leadership there. Through the constant meddling and politicking of the numerous lords and local commissars. Through the great victory brought about by Gaunt, his Tanith. And of course the ending of the book that made one of the host groan a the cheesiness of it all.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Episode 147 -  Word Bearers pt 4 - Erebus loses his face, Lorgar loses his legion, but then things get better

On Today’s cast we dive even further into the Word Bearer lore, starting with the outbreak of the Heresy. And how both Lorgar and Erebus begin to set themselves up for different paths in the Heresy. We then travel to Calth as the Word Bearers both succeed and fail at the mission given them (Kor Phaeron off the top rope for the failure!). And then over to Nuceria where both Lorgar and Erebus make moves to aid Khorne in finding a different worthy champion.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Episode 146 - Word Bearers pt 3 - Heresy is a go, but Erebus and Lorgar have some different ideas of next steps

On today’s cast we continue our coverage of the Word Bearers with Lorgar taking over his legion and promptly decided to tell the galaxy how awesome his dad is. And then we cover the Emperor’s response to such worship (spoiler alter it was not positive). Luckily the story gets awesome then as Lorgar goes on his journey to the eye of terror to Cadia, and to learn the truth of the galaxy. We then close out with him sending the Serrated Suns into the eye of terror and his subsequent journey.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/The40kLorecast" rel="nofollow">Merchandise</a><a href="https://Discord.gg/40klc" rel="nofollow">Discord Link:</a><a href="https://the40klorecast.com/" rel="nofollow">Our Website</a><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7dEDiuP31Ap81EHtWMS3LG?si=61e9be2fc4cc4cb7" rel="nofollow">Retro Recall</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BradChester71" rel="nofollow">Brad Channel</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Mars Men and use my code Mengotomars.com for a great deal: https://mengotomars.com * Check out Pebl and use my code hipebl.ai for a great deal: https://hellopebl.com * Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com * Check out Quince and use my code 40KLORE for a great deal: https://www.quince.com * Check out Shopify and use my code shopify.com/lore for a great deal: https://www.shopify.com Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>
