About this listen

Roger and Colm chat about the lore of Warhammer 40k

Roger is clueless

Colm knows everything


Join us, the Lost Guardsmen, as we make the perilous journey from an island on Terra through the vastness of the 40k Universe, through this galaxy and the Warp, as we seek to enlighten ourselves and ultimately be a little less lost.

Colm pertains to be a grizzled veteran of many a tabletop battle, in 40k, AoS, Middle Earth SBG, Kill Team, Mordheim but to name a few. Roger has seen active duty across many a card table, LCG, TCG, CCG, he knows what those abbreviations mean and even more about games. However, the galaxy is a large place and there are corners of the internet where only the brave and nerdy lurk. Roger has questions, Colm has answers and Roger gets homework.

Can a termagant advance through the ranks? Is a Blood Angel just a red Ultramarine? Do the Red Onez really go fasta? How doomed are we, and who is the Real Big Bad?

  • Episode 8 Necrons
    Oct 8 2024

    Necrons! Shiny angry ancient android antagonists. These guys and gals have been napping for over 60 million years and they are not good morning people. Especially when their galactic empire is overrun with vermin such as Orks and Humans.

    This episode didn't take 60 million years but it is out a little later than expected. Roger made a promise that we would record an episode in September. We kept that promise. Then Colm missed a message from Roger and didn't publish the episode until October. We got lost again. This is what happens when two friends live in distant parts of the galaxy and only communicate through astropathic relay. No psykers were harmed in the making of this episode.

  • Episode 7 - The Sisters of Battle
    Aug 30 2024
    Roger and Colm have been lost for a while. It is well known that time works differently in the Warp. We thought we were only five minutes after our last show but in real space the entire summer had passed. The topic is Sisters of Battle, the warrior women of the Adeptus Sororitas. Roger wonders how their special brand of purging is different to all the other brands of purging that occur in the 40k universe and Colm is only too happy to celebrate these seriously severe Celestians. These mighty militants are very special indeed and they lead us on to the topic of where women fit into 40k universe, both in the lore and within the hobby community. Bob Dylan once sang 'the times they are a-changing': some Warhammer fans have never heard that song....

  • Episode 6 - The Grey Knights
    May 23 2024
    Join us, bold adventurers, as we delve into a ridiculous amount of redaction to find out about the Grey Knights, Chapter 666. Who are they, do they really exist, would you like to meet them, and would you even remember if you did? The potential to get lost is very real, and that's if we even stay on topic. Hopefully we find our way back...
