  • Episode 48 - The Merchant Guilds. Part 1.
    Jun 27 2025

    Hey there Scummers!!





    In this episode, the boys take a wander down to the marketplaces and dive into the very sellers and purveyors of trade themselves.



    The Guilders.




    The Guilders of Necromunda are powerful and influential figures who control the flow of trade and resources across the hive cities.



    Acting as intermediaries between the noble houses and the underhive, Guilders oversee commerce, enforce contracts, and maintain the fragile balance of power that keeps Necromunda's economy functioning.



    Each Guilder belongs to one of several trade guilds—such as the Water Guild, Promethium Guild, or Corpse Guild—each specializing in vital goods and services.



    Their authority is backed by wealth, hired muscle, and political leverage, making them both feared and respected throughout the hive.




    I think they are much more dangerous than we realize...

  • Episode 47 - Servitors. A fate worse than death.
    Jun 12 2025

    Hey there Scummers!!



    In this episode, the boys jump in to something that puts the grim in grimdark, the body in body horror and the cruel in cruel and unusual.


    The Servitor.


    From the poor souls damned to be turned into little more than tools for The Imperium Of Man, batteries for Mars or even worse fates further afield.


    From slugs grown for specialty processing, criminals damned for their crimes against their betters and those poor few just unlucky enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.


    There are far worse things than death in the 41st millennium.


    Plus, Spamuel announces a fight tour...

  • Episode 46 - Beards, pipes and assault trikes - Ironhead Squats
    May 30 2025

    Hey there Scummers!!


    In this episode, the Lorekeepers delve into the history of the abhuman saviours of Necromunda, The Ironhead Squats.



    These stout and industrious abhumans have been integral in maintaining not only the planets ability to support life, but have been the true power behind her production for millennia.


    From salvaging the vast ranges of the spoil, to harvesting precious materials from the depths of the sump seas, to reclaiming chems from the very clouds themselves, The scions of Oryith Ironeye have their hands in every part of Necromundas economy.


    For better or worse...


    So join us as we discuss sump sea pirates, a robot made entirely out of peg legs, the particulars of the Squat accent and a new colony for the downtrodden and outcast strikingly similar to my own home...

    The episode starts at about 17:28. This was one hell of an opening.

  • Episode 44 - Open The Armories - Corrupted Weapons.
    May 2 2025


    Hello there Scummers!



    In this episode the boys head out to the black market and do a bit of a dive into the corrupted weapons you'll find in darkest corners of questionable shops.



    From the heretical bolters of fallen Astartes, flamers imbued with the powers of the warp, daemonic blades and weapons forged from the very materials of the warp itself, tread carefully scummer. These items will allow you to unleash such horrors upon your enemies.


    Just don't get caught with them...

  • Episode 43 - Xenos of the 40k universe. Part 1.
    Apr 17 2025

    Hello there Scummers!


    Spamuel has taken a bit of precious time away from the campaign trail and has been reading fan mail from his beloved constituency!


    Remember to #VoteSpamuel for every possible office.

    It’s corruption you can count on.


    In this episode, Spam and Nath help out a listener with some ideas on getting Xenos onto Necromunda. But instead of doing it the easy way, with pointy eared or very bearded Xenos friends, the boys head deep into the underground of the minor Xenos species.



    From the ursine/avian/platypus Nicassar, to the lizard-dog Tarellians and finishing up on the Rogue Trader era Zoat, the minor Xenos open up a massive number of options to create gangs, plot devices, big bads and even entire campaigns for us here on Necromunda.



    So cuddle up with your brandy cask, get yourself a Buy n Large sized box of popcorn and manipulate your local population into supporting your takeover of the local government, cause it’s time to talk Xenos.



    Saxophones!

  • Episode 42 - Criminal alliances of Necromunda. Part 2.
    Apr 4 2025

    Hello there Scummers!


    Have you ever considered stepping into a new career?

    What if it was a way to have great fun, meet new people, exploit them for personal gain and then try to overthrow the criminally false leadership of Necromunda?


    If you've answered "YES", do we have an episode for you!


    In this episode we look into the Fallen Houses, disgraced former members of Necromundas ruling elite. Their empires have been torn down by Helmawr's oppressive regime, but the fires within them burn even more brightly.


    Taking the tone down, we move on to the Narco Lords. Powerful and unscrupulous, these purveyors of poison and vice control chem empires that span the planet, their trade rivalling even the Guilders themselves.


    So grab a Lho stick, kick your feet up and be thankful you don't owe any of these subjects a favour, cause the repayments are criminal.

  • Episode 41 - Gangs of Yesteryear - Scavvies
    Mar 21 2025

    Hey there scummers!


    In this episode, we take a look at those unfortunate wretches at the very bottom of both Imperial society and the hive itself.


    Mutants and Scavvies are the true nadir of human civilisation, looked down upon as little better than filth, purged and hated for their very existence.


    Spamuel gets political, Nathan discusses his ideas on bacon flavoured arms, zombie eating habits are discussed and there is a lot of folks with VERY strange names. (But not Defenceless Dan, he's alright)


    So grab your flamer, your mutie bat and some Imperial hymnals, the genejack pound beat is pumping and it's time to quench ya thirst.
