Episode 98 - Codex Adeptus Custodes Review

Author: Dan Mitchell April 15, 2024 Duration: 1:25:48

Welcome to the Ashes of the Imperium!

Welcome to Ashes of the Imperium! In this episode, we delve into the golden heart of the Adeptus Custodes with a thorough examination of their new codex. Join Dan and Max as they dissect the latest rules and detachments, as well as pondering the points predicament. Max, a seasoned Custodes player, shares his initial trepidations and finds a glimmer of hope in the narrative depth and tactical challenges presented by the new book. Will the points updates polish or tarnish the golden army? Dan brings a refreshing perspective, crafting a list that pairs the stoic Custodes with the silent vigil of the Sisters of Silence in the Talons of the Emperor detachment. It's a narrative-driven force that may not claim competitive crowns but promises epic tabletop tales.

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.
