We are back... after quite some time away Ben, Dieter and Jimmy have finally managed to get back together, and what a time to do it. After the massive GW announcement recently of 9th edition 40k coming soon. How could we not talk about it. So join us as we loosely break down what we have seen and heard on the coming new edition. Then we speculate a lot on what could be coming. But all in all, we are excited. Let us know what you think...Socials:Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/the_drop_bear_au/Ben: https://www.instagram.com/greyforge/Dieter: https://www.instagram.com/darkoathstudios/Sponsors:Decked Out Gaming: https://www.deckedoutgaming.com/

Second Rank Fire

Episode #15 - The Dawn of a New Edition

We are back everyone, finally. Even in these troubled times we still find it hard to get a normal recording schedule. But would you expect anything less from us?Anyways, in this episode we take a dive into the newest book, Saga of the Beast. We were very lucky to get our hands on the book before all the shut downs, and for Ben, this was most exciting, for his beloved Orks have some new toys to play with, and blow up. So if you're at home and want to hear 3 Aussies ramble on about Warhammer, then you're in luck.

Episode #14 - Saga of the Beast

Yes this episode is late... but don't fret, the boys are back and ready to go on even more tangents! Not only do we speak about our hobby progresses, events (though most are now cancelled) and some announcements, but we dive into what to expect and what to do in preparation for your first event. Yes, we are aware this may be an ill timed episode topic, but, we hope its information can be useful in the future. When things aren't quite so crazy.So sit back and, hopefully, enjoy our ramblings.Socials:Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/the_drop_bear_au/Ben: https://www.instagram.com/greyforge/Dieter: https://www.instagram.com/darkoathstudios/Sponsors:Decked Out Gaming: https://www.deckedoutgaming.com/

Episode #13 - Attending You First Event, Do It!

Come one, come all and experience our ramblings once again! To take a break from the usual book review, as there has been some time since the last, we decided to tackle a subject we all will, probably, experience during our hobbying days. The Slump. We talk about how we have coped with this and come back from it and the plethora of 40k content out there to devour to keep you engaged. We also go through our usual hobby progress and upcoming events. And one last thing, our big announcement of this episode is we have an official sponsor! That's right, the legends at Decked Out Gaming have come on board with us. More to come from here...Socials: Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/the_drop_bear_au/Ben: https://www.instagram.com/greyforge/Dieter: https://www.instagram.com/darkoathstudios/Decked Out Gaming: https://www.deckedoutgaming.com/Tabletop Tactics:https://www.tabletoptactics.tv/Helsreach:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTaGjGmcHYD2fqukCIVfjvQAstartes:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFMtdiQILuTZr22sKUeAOOA

Episode #12 - The Great Slump and you.

We are back! Welcome to 2020! Yes we know it's a month in already, we had a slight, sleepy, delay on our first recording, but fear not, for we are returned! So let the ramblings begin. Episode 11 is chopped full of CanCon recaps and reviews of Ritual of the Damned, and that's not all. Our friend Carlos returns to aid us, cause we need all the help we can get. So sit back and, hopefully, enjoy our first episode of the year. Socials:  Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/the_drop_bear_au/  Dieter: https://www.instagram.com/darkoathstudios/ Ben: https://www.instagram.com/greyforge/ Decked Out Gaming:https://www.deckedoutgaming.com/The Normal Blokes Podcasthttps://thenormalblokespodcast.com/2020/01/28/episode-51-chris-wright-wins-the-itc-and-project-aquilla/

Episode #11 - Ritual of the CanCon

This is it! We made it to our 10th episode, can you believe it? We certainly can't. In this, the final episode of the year, we take a look into not 1, but 3 books, a mistake? Most likely, but we're doing it anyways. Not only do we fumble, stumble and most likely make things up while going through Faith & Fury, Blood of Baal and Chapter Approved 2019, but we take a look at the most recent GW announcements, our, very small, amount of hobby progress and waffle on, a lot. So join us for the last time this decade, and if you make it to the end, you win!Socials:Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/the_drop_bear_au/  Dieter: https://www.instagram.com/darkoathstudios/ Ben: https://www.instagram.com/greyforge/Plugs:Decked Out Gaming: https://www.deckedoutgaming.comEmerald Hobbies: https://www.emeraldhobbies.com.au/

Episode #10 - Faith & Fury, Blood of Baal, CA 2019, and other topics we know nothing about

We are back! Didn't think we would? Well lucky we are. Firstly we do apologise for time between episodes, life is a thing... apparently. Anyway, this episode we catch up on our hobby antics of the past few weeks, as well as the plethora of releases and announcements made by Games Workshop. Then finally, we get into the new Sisters of Battle codex! Which thanks to a guardian angel, Jimmy was able to get his hands on not one, but two copies! No he's not a scalper, find out why, so join us once again as we, more than likely, get all the rules wrong... Socials:Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/the_drop_bear_au/  Dieter: https://www.instagram.com/darkoathstudios/ Ben: https://www.instagram.com/greyforge/Plugs:Decked Out Gaming: https://www.deckedoutgaming.comEmerald Hobbies: https://www.emeraldhobbies.com.au/
