Episode 97 - Codex T'au Review

Welcome to the Ashes of the Imperium!

Today we discuss the brand new T'au Codex, focusing on the background within the books, and how to create narratively themed armies using two of the new Detachments. We discuss whether or not the optimistic T'au fit within the grim darkness of the 41st Millenium, and some of the major changes from the Index.

Let us know what you think of the Codex, and what lists you'll be making with the new rules!

Episode 59 - Interview Show - Hobbying After Life-Changing Injuries with Heather (The Real Iron Hand)

In today's episode Dan is joined by a hobbyist with a hell of a story to tell.

Heather lost her dominant arm in a motorcycle crash some years ago and is still hobbying  on, dubbing herself The Real Iron Hand!

We talk about how she's found learning to paint all over again and how her  Space Marines (Iron Hands, obvs) were recently featured on Warhammer TV!

Heather is on Twitter as @realironhand and Insta as @the_real_iron_hand. Check out her blog too, lifeafterlimb.co.uk.

Tune in next time for more hobby goodness with the AOTI gang.
