Galaxy in Flames: A Horus Heresy Fan Podcast

We're back and right under the wire for our Turkey Day episode which begins with Steve and Simon bickering about their respective nations Thanksgivings. We talk about recent reveals like the Malcador variants, Arvus Lighter, and the alternate Deredeo loadout. Simon played a bunch of games this month including playtesting his Heresy skirmish rules set for an upcoming club event and shares his thoughts on having played a full game with his Mechanicum. No Q&A this month but we do ramble at length, off topic, about Trench Crusade!

On this month's episode we are joined by special guest host, epidemiologist and wargamer, Dr. Eric Lofgren! Eric was a presenter at the first ever Warhammer academic conference and he was kind enough to share his time with us discussing his presentation and talking about what that experience was like. His presentations were focused on Horus Heresy specific events and was a fascinating guest. You also get to hear three grown men excitedly discuss their favorite diseases. Somehow, we went an entire episode with a real life plague doctor and didn't make a single Nurgle reference! Eric stayed with us to discuss the upcoming Dark Mechanicum releases, shared some pro-tips on playing Imperial Fists as a Heresy army, and took part in our closing listener Q&A.Check out Eric's blog at Variance Hammer and follow him on Bluesky.Happy Halloween, don't die of plague!Logo Design by Nikol KingIntro and Outro Music by Skull CultistBackground music by Orthokeras with vox from Alia Synesthesia and Nicole TurnerAudio Production designed on the Forge world of the Vorpal Goat.

Our September podcast arrives just under the wire! Heresy news is ramping up so we had lots to talk about starting with the return of Heresy Thursdays to Warhammer Community's site, the announcement of Mechanicum for Legions Imperialis, the teased Siege of Terra animation coming to Warhammer+, Space Marine 2, an academic conference on Warhammer, and finally the Nova Open Heresy "roadmap", such as it was. Simon talks Mechanicum hobbying, and then dives into the recently released supplement, The Martian Civil War but is interrupted by the least sexy cat fight imaginable. We conclude with our usual listener Q&A!Logo Design by Nikol KingIntro and Outro Music by Skull CultistBackground music by Orthokeras with vox from Alia Synesthesia and Nicole TurnerAudio Production designed on the Forge world of the Vorpal Goat.

Our August episode is here, in which Simon talks about the various games of Heresy he played, the new friends he made along the way (some of them being plague toads) as well as the simple campaign he took part in out of his favorite game shop, Terracrux in Tacoma, WA. We talked over the release of Legions Imperialis: The Devastation of Tallarn, and then got into the nitty gritty of assembling plastic Mechanicum. As usual, we close with listener Q&A concluding with an intimate consideration of the primarchs.Logo Design by Nikol KingIntro and Outro Music by Skull CultistBackground music by Orthokeras with vox from Alia Synesthesia and Nicole TurnerAudio Production designed on the Forge world of the Vorpal Goat.
