Preferred Enemies - A Warhammer 40K Podcast Preferred Enemies

It’s time for the second half of the double-codex release review, and this time, we’ve traded Richard for Dennis as we trade Orks for Custodes! The Emperor’s golden guard are here with their new 10th edition codex, and it’s definitely had… a reception by the community, that’s for sure. No need to be coy – this book is definitely weaker than the index that preceded it. But how exactly did that happen? What about this book makes it less powerful? Is this a sign of a larger trend in codex de-powering? And did we end up asking for it? Also, we address the biggest controversy to hit 40K in recent memory. Oh, and that other one, too.

Two codexes are out for pre-order, but we’ve only got room in the episode to talk about one, so we’re going with the one that’s mean and green! In this episode, we take a look at the upcoming Ork codex. What’s new, what’s changed, what’s gone, and how is this going to change how everyone’s favorite fungal combat hooligans play? Also, we take a look at the recently-announced purge of Age of Sigmar models and contemplate what, if anything, this could mean for 40K in the future.

Sometimes, you want a break from matched play, or you just want to tell a neat story with your miniatures, and that’s where narrative play comes in! In this episode, we discuss the ins and outs of Crusade, the narrative system that Games Workshop introduced with 9th edition and continues to support into 10th. We delve into how it works, what we like about it, and what we don’t like as much, and some alternative narrative systems you might consider as well. Also, we discuss the Adepticon 2024 reveals, including the Chaos Space Marine codex and boxes, the new Kill Team box, and whether or not GW might be spreading themselves too thin.

The Kroot are on the hunt, and we get the spoils! In this episode, we review the new Kroot Hunting Pack army box and the new T’au Empire codex that’s included inside. In part one, we discuss the box’s presentation, examine the new Kroot models, and look at how they compare to the old Kroot Carnivores. In part two, we dig into the meat of the new book and work through the ups and downs of the new codex. Is it the greater good or a killing blow for this army, or somewhere in-between? Listen to find out.

It’s Crusade time! In this episode, we take a look at the new Pariah Nexus campaign book and delve into the goings-on in the Nephilim Sector. What have the Necrons been up to? Why are the Adepta Sororitas the only ones who can stop them? What does Belisarius Cawl hope to achieve with his explorator fleets? How did [REDACTED] get involved? And are super-weapons ever a good idea? We take a look at the story and the campaign rules of this brand new book!

Thanks to attempts by Nurgle and Vashtorr to stop us, this episode is delayed but not defeated! In this episode, we discuss all the news from the 2024 Las Vegas Open, including the previews, the main event, and Kevin bringing home a trophy from the Narrative event. We also take a quick spin through last week’s Balance Dataslate and look at some of the changes and where the game is sitting now. In part two, we dig into the new Deathwing Assault box and the Dark Angel codex supplement. The models look good, but how do the rules fare? Listen to find out!
