  • Interesting topics but awful audio

    While the discussion is usually good the audio qualities are just awful, with speaker levels all over the place and several mics clipping constantly. I wish I could enjoy it but the technical issues make it unlistenable.

  • Read the codex BEFORE getting on the mic

    I like y’all’s content, I was just let down that you put up a review with your first read through, specifically the sisters review. You skipped over major points, and it just felt like a waste of time. At least do your homework and read the codex before you record an episode.

  • Sound balancing issues

    I love the content but the poor sound balancing has gotten to the point where I can’t get through an episode. Someone needs to go through and listen to the episodes before they get published because the guests are often way too quiet relative to the hosts and there’s way too big a gap between the quietest portions where someone is talking away from the mic and the very frequent booms of suddenly loud speaking. The jazz music is a cute idea but is played way too loud relative to the content and f... more

  • Such a smooth and rounded 40k Podcast

    Hi there,

    I really want to thank you, for the deep dives and insights into the competitive side of 40k. I really enjoy your podcast!

    Best of all, my next casual 40k 10th Ed. game will be fueled by the tears of competitive gamers :)

    Greetings

  • Informative & useful & engaging

    Really great podcast to listen to. I’m new to the tournament scene and just listening to these guys and how they approach the game has improved my play and list building. Love the tournament recaps, my favourite episodes - the dulcet tones are an added bonus. Hope to see them as an opponent across the table soon.

    Would be great if the lists they run were posted / linked somewhere within the episode descriptions!
