The Minis For War Podcast

James and Bart are back on the mic after a short break to tackle the massive wave of incoming Warhammer 40,000 11th Edition news.

We break down the incredible new cinematic trailer, discussing everything from the classic Rogue Trader easter eggs to some wild conspiracy theories about the Emperor’s current state on the Golden Throne.

We also dive heavy into the recent Warhammer Skulls festival, sharing our hopes for Dawn of War 4, the constant support for Space Marine 2, and the reality of Total War DLC fatigue.

Finally, we crack open the studio doors to talk about the massive StarCraft Board Game shipping wave, our recent obsession with Malediction and Moonstone, and what we have been reading from the Black Library.

Grab a coffee, clear a spot on your painting mat, and let's get into it!
