Tom, Chris, and special guest Matt “Chimp” Ward – not that Matt Ward – discuss a plethora of minis news, the community’s endeavors at the Brotherhood team Age of Sigmar event, and their own months in spilling things on various surfaces.
Plus: meditations on the son of Dhorgar, immediately out of date Tzeentch book hot takes, and how to start painting models and then immediately stop.
We’ve had another case of the meandering audio quality this episode, but hopefully it’s not too bad! Please bear with us while we adjust to Chris’ echoey new house.
