    Within the Imperium, entire worlds are devoted to the pursuit of agriculture and the growing of food, providing the necessary sustenance for the people of more specialised worlds elsewhere in the galaxy. These so-called Agri-worlds can grow a variety of food in many different ways, from the ill-tempered livestock known as Grox that provide meat to so many across the galaxy to simple wheat for bread.

    On some Agri-worlds, entire continents have been cultivated for the growth of foodstuffs. The most standard type of food grown on most Agri-worlds and distributed to feed the peoples of the Imperium is processed corn. This variety can produce confusion when Imperial cultures mix; in one recorded instance, Tona Criid, a native of Vervunhive on Verghast, mistook camouflage paint for a type of food-paste supplied to the 1st Tanith Regiment.

    Space Marines have been known to subsist on triglyceride gel and amino-porridge, as well as local wildlife hunted during their deployments. Some Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes have their own particular diets. The Dark Angels, for instance, are known to consume nutrigruel, carboloafs and vitamead.

    The Nachmund Rift War is an ongoing conflict being waged by the Imperium in the Nachmund Sub-Sector.

    Closely connected to the War of Beasts and War of Nightmares on Vigilus, while the Fortress World itself continues to remain largely in Imperial hands the greater Nachmund Gauntlet finds itself besieged by the Forces of Chaos.

    Vigilus is a world situated within the Nachmund Gauntlet and one of the few passages through the Great Rift. As such, the planet has become strategically vital for the Imperium and has become a target for a wide number of its enemies.

    As part of the greater War of Beasts, Sangua Terra is under Chaos assault as Abaddon the Despoiler seeks to destroy both it and Vigilus to close the Nachmund Gauntlet. At least 2 companies of the Castellans of the Rift Chapter are fighting on the world. During the Nachmund Rift War, the planet became the linchpin of the new Imperial defensive network dubbed the Sanctus Wall.

    Due to successive Chaos invasions, Sangua Terra is presently a battle-scarred hellscape overrun by Daemons. Canoness Superior Junith Eruita has arrived on the planet to marshal its defenders.

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.
