Welcome to the Ashes of the Imperium!

Rise up in insurrection with Dan and Max as they deconstruct the latest missives from the Star Children! The team share the secrets of the Genestealer Cults in this new Codex review!

Max samples the bitter medicine of the Twisted Helix and Dan infiltrates the Astra Militarum to bring some Hive Cult rebellion to the tabletop; the team discuss the Biosantic Broodsurge and Brood Brother Auxilia to represent these two forces respectively.

The arms (why are there more than two?!) of the Cult are open wide to welcome you into their ranks - join us!

Hosted by Dan Mitchell from a surprisingly sunny corner of England, Ashes of the Imperium-A Warhammer 40,000 Podcast is a deep and engaging dive into the grim darkness of the far future. This isn't just a rundown of rules or meta lists; it's a celebration of the rich stories and personal hobby journeys that make this universe so compelling. Each episode feels like a conversation with passionate friends, unpacking the intricate lore that fuels the setting and exploring how to bring that narrative to life on the tabletop. You'll find detailed discussions on running Crusade campaigns, those long-form narrative experiences that let your army's story evolve, alongside faction deep-dives that go beyond the stats to examine their history and character. The scope extends to the wider hobby as well, covering everything from painting and modelling to the specific tactical challenges of games like Kill Team. What truly sets this podcast apart are the regular interviews with various creators and members of the wider Warhammer Community, offering unique insights you won't find elsewhere. Whether you're a lore enthusiast hungry to understand the secrets of a forgotten xenos race, a painter looking for inspiration, or a gamer planning your next narrative campaign, there's a thoughtful discussion here for you. It's the perfect audio companion for your next painting session or commute, crafted for anyone who finds joy in the countless stories woven into this iconic hobby.
