    Many Astra Militarum troops have turned to Chaos over the centuries, including entire regiments of the Astra Militarum's Imperial Army predecessors that followed the Warmaster Horus into battle against the Imperium during the Horus Heresy.

    These Traitors represent the primary mortal troops available to the forces of Chaos, now known as the "Traitoris Militarum" in High Gothic to the defenders of the Imperium. Even ten millennia later, Chaos Lords are known to attract these followers of Chaos into their warbands and personal armies, which vary greatly in both size and strength.

    Traitoris Militarum troops are often better armed than the average Chaos Cultist and have access to a wide assortment of arms at their disposal. Sadly, throughout the last ten millennia, occasionally entire Imperial Guard companies, or even entire regiments, have been known to turn from the light of the Emperor and join the ranks of the Lost and the Damned, taking with them their armouries and vehicles.

    Warhammer 40k became close to what we recognize it is today around third edition - before that, it was The Rogue Trader: Warhammer 40000, a pulp fiction mishmash of Judge Dredd, Alien, and Dune... Even more than it is today. In this episode we return to the olden days and take a look at the world of 40k where space marines all behave like Night Lords, Primarch is just a title you can be promoted to, Emperor is some normal guy who was born to human parents and was afraid of dying so he put himself into the jar, Roboute Guilliman is a pile of dusty bones on a shelf in Macragge, Orks get laid, and Rogal Dorn poops on the floor. Left without much options we also touch on the scariest of topic all: Ian Watson.

a really fun podcast about the wacky world of 40k

if you have a smallest interest about the Warhammer 40k universe this is one of the best podcast for you!

the hosts have really good synergy and match energy really well! The show gets better by the episodes and also include spin-offs that include true crime.

the show is mainly for newcomers to 40k in mind and they give a really good explanation because one of the hosts "DK" is also a newcomer and is a good conduit for asking questions that a more seasoned person in that world not ask.

my main criticism about the podcast is that they are going over big subjects with a broad brush so if you are already deep into the 40k lore it can be a bit of a bore compared to the more singular event focused videos / podcasts.

With that out of the way, i wholeheartedly recommend this podcast if you even have the slightest interest in the wacky world of Warhammer 40k!

So much fun!

I love listening to these lunatics. While Shy's contributions are lacking in this format, I'm happy to be able to listen in the background, especially without needing a YouTube membership. Without this podcast, I doubt I would have gotten into Warhammer. I especially love the book club episodes.

Was a fun recap

I mean, as perfect as Fulgrim wanted to be, he didn't listen to the Emperor for shit. The whole thing would have been avoided if he had just listened to Big E and started hacking away at the xenos and burned everything they got in fear of chaos lingering in the unknown. The harsh guidelines were in place to keep chaos at bay without telling humanity of the greater powers that dwell in the warp. Basically, he didn't want his monkeys tempted by the fact that there was another option/route to obtaining power.

Fan since the start

Loved these guys from years back. Almost wild to realized that I've lived in two different countries, moved four times, got two degrees and through all of that listened this podcast. Love it.
