From their origins as nomadic scavengers on the toxic dunes of Mars during the Age of Strife to becoming the unquestioning, cyborg foot soldiers of the Machine God, we cover exactly what goes into the Mechanicum's relentless forces. Discover the brutal process of the Corpus Skitarii, including the mandatory removal of eyelids & legs, and explore the massive variety of troops deployed by the Forge Worlds. We discuss Vanguard Rad-Troopers who dissolve their own armor with radiation, Sicarian Ruststalkers moving at blinding speeds as commandos, Pteraxii taking to the skies, and the Serberys Corps riding mechanical dogs into battle. Plus, a look at the highly questionable "Project Kataphron" and what standard Imperial Guardsmen actually think of their AdMech counterparts.Support the show

This week on Adeptus Ridiculous, Bricky, DK and Kirioth dive into the absolute madness of Denny Flowers' Ghazghkull Thraka: Warlord of Warlords. We are talking maximum Orky goodness: the Blood Axes setting wildly elaborate mountain-crushing traps, Grotsnik performing completely unhinged mid-battle surgery, Glinteef Goldakka's fabled "Mega Smasha" titan-killer WarKopta and Ghazghkull going toe-to-toe with Black Templar Marshal Adenauer.Support the show

On paper, seceding is as easy as just quitting, but the real difficulty is keeping the secession going. Led by the "pious" Duke Severus XIII, this splinter faction has held itself together in a dangerous area of space. Believing the Periphery sub-sector was his by right, the Duke orchestrated fake supply shortages to force his citizens into desperate rebellion.To maintain his grip, the Duke formed dark pacts with a desperate Drukhari kabal known as the Children of Thorns. Throw in an unexpected Ork invasion from Waaagh! Grimtoof, and you have the recipe for the only definitively successful secessionist group in 40K history.Support the show

This week, Bricky, DK, and Kirioth dive into the "Reign of Iron" lore supplement. With the Eye of Terror massively expanded after the fall of Cadia, Perturabo has set his sights on building the "Infinite Citadel" and claiming the highly-valuable Forge World of Agripinaa. But to get there, Warsmith Kravek Morne has to do some serious house cleaning. Listen in as the boys break down the Iron Warriors sneaking up on the Black Legion "Grave Robbers" who were looting Cadia, leading to the brutal execution of Lord Iordax Quan. From there, it's an all-out meat grinder on Toros Tertium against Ursula Creed and the Cadian 8th. And just when you think the Iron Warriors have it in the bag, Darnath Lysander and the Imperial Fists arrive to crash the party—mostly because they just really, really hate Perturabo's sons. Oh, and Eldrad shows up at the end.Support the show

From her early days training under the legendary Commander Puretide alongside her bonded rival, Farsight, to earning her famous moniker by assassinating Ork leaders under an artificial eclipse, Shadowsun is an absolute tactical powerhouse. We're diving deep into her mastery of the Kauyon (Patient Hunter) warfare doctrine, her brutal campaigns across the spheres of expansion, and that time she completely humiliated the Imperium by cutting Raven Guard Chapter Master Corvin Severax in half.

It’s a $500 million mystery that remains unsolved to this day. In the early hours of St. Patrick's Day in 1990, two men dressed as Boston police officers talked their way into the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. What followed was 81 minutes of pure, unadulterated chaos. The thieves tied the two night watchmen up in the basement—one of whom was on LSD. Despite having all the time in the world, the thieves bizarrely passed up priceless masterpieces by Raphael and Michelangelo. Instead, they haphazardly sliced 13 random paintings out of their frames, rolled them up, and vanished into the night never to be found.Support the show

The events of Space Marine II are in the rearview mirror, and our boy Demetrian Titus has officially secured the bag: getting promoted to Captain and Master of the Watch. Bobby G has tasked him with an incredibly ambitious (and maybe impossible) goal: reclaiming the lost 500 Worlds of Ultramar.Titus heads out to the Vespator Front to secure a spooky planet called Novamagnor, a world so cursed that even Hive Fleet Leviathan actively avoided it. What Titus thought would be a "poggers" little speedrun to drop a vortex bomb in a sleeping Necron tomb immediately goes completely off the rails. We're talking Hexmark Destroyer ambushes, a literal Necron civil war spilling onto the surface, and the arrival of Nekrosor Ammenthar, the horrifying Patient Zero for the Destroyer Curse.To make matters worse, Titus has to deal with Archmagos Wytbor Oct, a massive C'tan cultist who literally holds the door open for the Necrons because he wants to free a Nightbringer Shard from a massive Tesseract Vault. It's a pyrrhic victory of epic proportions, capped off by The Rock pulling up to the outskirts of Ultramar with a cryptic text message that simply reads: "Brother. We need to talk".Support the show
