With the dataslate looming (and overdue) I was unwilling to put out any game content such as retrospectives or such and have it invalidated immediately! So instead i reached out to AOWdu's most faithful man of violence Anthony Vanella!

It's here, they finally did it, they bought back Squats!! And in what fashion, may god have mercy on us all, because the stunties won’t. This book is CRANKED in just about every way.

We get the first half out of the way, with pretty much Richard and Adam playing good/bad cop respectively, depending on whether you like or loathe where this codex is taking us. It's a great episode regardless and we hope you enjoy it!

This week we return to some good old retrospective reviews with the Thousand Sons getting their turn. Adam is once again joined by Liam Hackett who was on for the original codex review. We have a pretty great time reminicing about how much we got wrong, got right and just how much depth there is to this codex! It's pretty well placed currently and Tsons players can leverage a lot of spice in the current meta, let's hope we can all hold it together over the next few months with Votann on the horizon......

Well we finally did it, after all the meta changes, balance dataslate changes, suppliments, chapter approved and the rest, we have landed on a stable patch of the game in which to look back upon the sisters codex. This may very well be the most adjusted, tweaked, nerfed, rebalanced codex we have seen this edition or ever if the trend continues. And joining me as we look back on it nearly a year after it's release is the wonderful Mitch Beard (Mitchy B.) from Sister Act 40k! Who once again brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the show. So sit on down, wet a brush or keep driving straight as we regail you with the the tale so far, for this amazingly well put together book!
