I’m relatively new to the Warhammer hobby, and started listening to the IC from pretty much the beginning of my journey. I truly love listening to it, the topics are wide ranging and consistently interesting and have exposed me to many new perspectives and experiences in the community. Carl’s stated goal is to make everyone feel like they’re a part of their gaming group and they absolutely succeed. I highly recommend it for anyone into the many aspects of this hobby.
Great episode

The Independent Characters podcast has it all! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!
