  • Episode 238 - The Lost and The Damned
    Jun 1 2024

    Episode 238 of The Independent Characters sees Josh and Carl take a historical and current view at The Lost and The Damned. Don't know what that is exactly? Don't worry we will fill you in soon. We think this leads to some very interesting conversation around the current state of the Warhammer 40k Ruleset, how tight it is, and how you can break free of the constraints that may be inhibiting your gaming!

    Additionally, we include an interview with Adepticon organizers Hank Edley and Matt Weeks. This interview was originally recorded for our Patreon subscribers, but we felt that the topics touched on here really apply to so many people who attend that fantastic event. We discuss why the decision to move to Milwaukee happened and how it came about. As well as what the future of Adepticon holds!

    We hope you enjoy Episode 238!

This is a must listen

This is one of the single greatest 40k Podcasts of all time, the amount of love and passion that was poured into it. While it is slightly disappointing that all the episodes are not available especially now that the show has come to an end. This is because of the amount of goodwill and good healthy communities that this podcast has led directly to creating. Not to mention the numerous other podcasts that have sprung from this one or from those communities. From its humble beginning of the boiler room through the ups and downs of the various editions and life events, from the Fire relief efforts to the Astronomican recording studio and the partial destruction of that studio, this is one podcast that is worth the listen.

Thank you to Carl, Geoff, Adan, Justin, Aaron and all the other hosts I made have missed for 200+ episodes of your passion and life your all Heroes in my book.

Few 40K Podcasts Come Close

The ICs have created more than a podcast....Carl and friends have created a community. This community helps each other, it gives back, and it cultivates new friendships. That's pretty amazing for a podcast about wargaming. Oh, and yes, listening to every 3+ hour show is highly entertaining, educational and addictive.
