About this listen

Lifelong Warhammer fan Bricky and grimdark greenhorn Dkdiamantes delve into the incredibly vast ocean that is Warhammer 40000 lore in this unofficial Warhammer 40k podcast. From superhuman space warriors to depraved cultists and green-skinned Mad Max rejects, not even the most ridiculous aspects of this setting are off the table for these two mad men.

    By mid-M32, the Imperium was in a state of relative peace and prosperity. Having recovered from the devastating Horus Heresy, the Traitor Legions were still reeling from their defeat inside the Eye of Terror, Xenos were relegated to the frontiers of Imperial space, and the stagnation and decay that would define the Imperium millennia later had not yet set in. Confident that humanity had endured its greatest challenge, the Orks in particular were underestimated and judged to have been removed as a threat since the Ullanor Crusade. This underestimation of the greenskins would prove to be disastrous when an enormous Ork planetoids began to materialize around imperial worlds, the Imperial Fists Chapter was destroyed, entire Sectors were overrun by the Greenskins and billions upon billions perished.

    In the endless war of Trench Crusade, humanity suffers and dies while the forces of Heaven and Hell loom. But why don't powerful angels and true demons take to the field themselves? This episode explores the nature of the conflict as a divine proxy war, with humanity trapped in the middle.

    ​We dive into the "Covenant of Hell," an ancient pact that prevents full-blooded demons from walking the earth, and the terrifying, reality-shattering reasons why Heaven can't just send in its angelic legions. Learn how Hell wages war indirectly with half-demon abominations and twisted constructs, and how humanity has been forced to create its own holy warriors—from cloned messiahs to giant Paladins—in a desperate attempt to survive. Join us as we discuss humanity's tragic role as the frontline soldiers in a cosmic cold war fought between two superpowers who refuse to get their own hands dirty.

    Shas'O Vior'la Shovah Kais Mont'yr, aka O'Shovah or Commander Farsight, is alleged to still be leading the Farsight Enclaves, although this would mean that he has lived for at least three centuries, considerably beyond the ordinary lifespan of T'au Fire Caste members. It may be that another has taken up his mantle, or that the real Commander is extending his lifespan through some technological process. One thing that is certain is that the breakaway Farsight Enclave maintains a strongly martial tradition closely based on the Vior'la Sept (lit: "hot-blooded"), O'Shovah's birthplace.

I find that Bricky & D.K. are funny to listen to because they actually seem to enjoy the subjects that they’re talking about. I don’t doubt that their not the most accurate podcast about the subjects but the fact that they’re cracking jokes makes it easier to listen to because it doesn’t have a classroom feeling but just a nice conversation. I find that very commonly when D.K. asks a question it what I would’ve asked myself.

Two friends talking about Warhammer & other things.
