    INQUISITOR EISENHORN.. and RAVENOR.. and BEQUIN | 40k Lore

    Website/links: https://ttpfieldmanual.captivate.fm Discord: https://discord.gg/Q6CTSrcbPT – It's our End-of-Year Special! In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. For Final Days' final day... Joshy provides the TLDR of his favourite Black Library Saga: Dan Abnett's Eisenhorn saga. This episode briefly covers Eisenhorn's novels Xenos, Malleus, Hereticus, and Magos. We also discuss Ravenor, Ravenor Rogue, and Ravenor Returned. Finally, we talk about Bequin: Pariah and Bequin: Penitent. While not a proper Book Club episode, we hope this episode, releasing on Christmas Day, is a fun and engaging summary of a beloved saga that, for most, has been an instrumental part of their Black Library journey. Happy holidays. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies. Die-hard fans of tabletop gaming, we use this podcast as a platform to share our ramblings about the hobby (though we cannot shut up about Warhammer). By day, Joshy is a therapist; by night, he's an RPG aficionado who grew up on Final Fantasies and crafting his own Dungeons & Dragons worlds. Jonny, a technician, spends his downtime conquering more video games than Joshy can keep track of. Zakky, our occasional guest, is a courier who loves buying things he then has to build. We hope you enjoy, and we look forward to interacting with you on our Discord!

In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. This episode covers Joshy's all-time favourite assembly of models and characters: The Phoenix Court of Khaine! Made popular in Warhammer 40,000: Apocalypse, the Phoenix Court depicts an assembly of the Aeldari War God Khaine and several Phoenix Lords. These Phoenix Lords include Asurmen and his disciples from the earliest days of The Fall, where he taught Jain Zar, Fuegan, Baharroth, Maugan Ra, Lhykis and more the ways of warfare and how to defend the Aeldari people. On the tabletop, the Phoenix Lords and their Aspect Warriors form an elite backbone of an Aeldari force, and even receive their own suite of tailored rules known as the Aspect Host detachment. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies.

    LUCIUS The ETERNAL | 40k and Horus Heresy Emperor's Children Lore

    Website/links: https://ttpfieldmanual.captivate.fm Discord: https://discord.gg/Q6CTSrcbPT – It's time for our End-of-Year Special! In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. It's the infamous Champion of Slaanesh! Lucius the Eternal is a real turd. We don't really like him - but that's the point! Smug, egotistical, prideful, and perhaps the deadliest Assassin in all of the Astartes datasheets across 40k, Lucius is a fan-favourite. From the very first novels of the Horus Heresy, to a recently remodelled unit for 40k's new Emperor's Children range, Lucius' presence is widespread. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies.

In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. Skree-ah! There are birds nearby. In this episode, we cover the Raven Guard heroes of the 40k tabletop, fan-favourite Kayvaan Shrike, 3rd Company Captain turned temporary Chapter Master during the Damocles Crusade, and newly modelled Aethon Shaan, the new Chapter Master. Both of these warriors are legendary guerrilla fighters, exemplars of their chapter's way of warfare: stealth, subterfuge, assassination. On the tabletop, these individuals reward you for bringing lots of Jump Pack and Phobos units, able to redeploy them on and off the tabletop, whilst benefitting from a suite of stealthy buffs. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies.

    Website/links: https://ttpfieldmanual.captivate.fm Discord: https://discord.gg/Q6CTSrcbPT – It's time for our End-of-Year Special! In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. We return to Chaos with a comprehensive look at Vashtorr the Arkifane, Architect of the Arks of Omen, and ruler of the Forge of Souls. He is Chaos's weapons dealer - he plays all sides of the conflict within the warp, bartering with each of the Four to create their daemon engines and other infernal weaponry. He has established a sense of order within his growing domain, as industry and creation in the material realm empower him in his quests for pantheon ascension. Upon the tabletop, Vashtorr wreaks havoc against his opponent's machinery, as well as seriously buffing nearby daemon engines. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies.

    SYLANDRI VEILWALKER, the Harlequins' Lead Performer | 40k Lore

In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. Next on this Veiled Path is the enigmatic "main character" for the Aeldari Harlequins: Sylandri Veilwalker. A being rumoured to be multiple within a role, each moment of Veilwalker's lore pushes forward the tapestry of characters across 40k. From communications with Fabius Bile, working alongside the Fallen Angel Cypher, and escorting Yvraine, Herald of Ynnead, Veilwalker is the Laughing God's jest: a plot device. Unfortunately, she has no model in the tabletop, but a generic Shadowseer will suffice. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies.

In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. This instalment is all about what feels like the new girl on the block, but she's been here the whole time: Lady Aurelia Malys. Once consort to Asdrubael Vect, the Archon of the Kabal of the Poisoned Tongue is a mastermind with allies across all corners of the Aeldari tapestry. Both on the tabletop and in the lore, Lady Malys can bend others' perceptions regarding her game plan, with that deception extending to her lethality in combat. This kill-them-with-kindness courtier will have her foes cut up before they realise she's changed the terms and conditions. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies.

    AHRIMAN! Arch-Sorcerer of the Thousand Sons | 40k Lore

    Website/links: https://ttpfieldmanual.captivate.fm Discord: https://discord.gg/Q6CTSrcbPT – It's time for our End-of-Year Special! In these FINAL DAYS, join us in our exploration of the "who, what, where, why, and how" of iconic figures from across Warhammer 40,000's lore and tabletop in the form of a casual character dossier. Fifth on the roster is Ahzek Ahriman, at one time Magnus' the Red's favoured son, and most promising prodigy. A rampant mutation would plague the Thousand Sons since their inception, and after making a deal with Tzeentch to save the legion from the Space Wolves and their assault during the Horus Heresy, the legion would be doomed. As this mutation increased, Ahriman sought a cure - a magical antitode he would name The Rubric. The ways of Tzeentch would reveal themselves as The Rubric would change the mutated into dust, animating their armour as soulless beings. Ahriman would spend the rest of his life seeking to correct his mistake, along the way gaining power beyond that of any mortal psyker throughout the galaxy. – TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies.
