Following a second hiatus through the winter, brought about by work and procrastination, Mat and Dionne finally sit back down just in time to be slightly behind everything noteworthy that has happened recently. Nevertheless, they set out to discuss the recent Ark of Omen update, and begin to visit just the tip of the iceberg known as the Inquisition.

Following a second work related hiatus, Mat and Dionne are back in front of the mics to talk about the recent changes brought about by the Ark of Omen Chapter Approved, as well as everyone's favorite (if unexpected) G-Men, The Emperor's Holy Orders of the Inquisition.

As October 31st is still in fact part of October, this 'Orktober' episode cannot be considered late.

That doesn't make up for the quality of the rest of it, but it's free, so what can you really expect?

Making it in just in time to still be 'Orktober', Mat and Dionne have fun talking about 40k's goofiest of factions along with Mat's piss-poor performance at Harvester of Souls, and what exactly it was that happened with the Leagues of Votann.

Holy s**t, we're back!

Another sub-par episode, from your favorite lackluster podcast, discussing all the things in 40k you never thought were interesting enough to talk about!

Returning from a move-related hiatus, and having gained a fair bit of experience with Nephilim the guys discuss their unsolicited opinions on how to improve the game in a ways that completely negate what Nephilim set out to do. Having painted a single test model, and played all of two games with his...

25/06/2022

Here it is, ever so fashionably late, the not really long awaited episode twelve, where we talk about the greatest man in the Imperium for all of 5 minutes, and some other bulls**t for the remaining 1 hour and 55 minutes!

Carlos McConnell! The man who could beat Tzeentch in checkers, if he weren't too busy playing chess! Carlos McConnell! The man who parties so hard, that even Slaanesh would go to work hung over, if only (s)he could get an invitation! Carlos McConnell! The man who's antibodies are so powerful, that b...

It's late, but it's here!

Dionne and Mat sit down to discuss upcoming videogames, rumors, recent industry news, their worthless opinions on the current state of the game, and that humblest of all God's creatures; The Las-Gun.

(note: due to unclear reasons, there were some audio issues with this episode. While I did what I could, it still resulted in some choppy audio in some places. Our apologies)

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-11---Weapons-of-the-Imperium-e1jh3sh

In the first episode of what Mat has decided will be a less focused 'season' following their close on the Horus Heresy, the guys sit down to have a brief discussion about some of the more common weapons used by the Imperium. Dionne gets excited about some upcoming 40k Videogames, and Mat reflects on...

30/05/2022

A heads up for our listeners:

Things have been a bit quite lately, but we have still been doing our thing.

We did have an episode scheduled for upload in tomorrow as usual, however unfortunately due to some technical problems it was lost.

We will have a new episode up hopefully within the coming week!

15/05/2022

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-10---The-Horus-Heresy-e1iinq1

Finally we have reached Episode 10 and the Horus Heresy! With this, we will now go on to expand our discussions into more broad subject matter and topics, with the next couple hopefully being more hobby or interest focused than just hard lore!

This also marks our first episode where we recorded on Discord, and while it has greatly improved our audio quality, it also has created a few weird cuts at certain points, so apologies for that. It didn't appear that there was much I could do to fix it.

Thanks for listening this far!

Reaching their 10th Episode, and recording on Discord for the first time, Mat and Dionne finally sit down and discuss the broad strokes of the Horus Heresy, focusing on topics like the Burning of Prospero, the fun times had in the Isstvan System, how Guilliman is actually a bit of a di****ad, some o...

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-9--Road-to-Ruin-e1htbh0

Episode 9 - The Road to Ruin is now released!

Next stop, Horus Heresy!

Mat and Dionne have local player Phil join them on the podcast to discuss the outcome of a vector strike game, their opinions on the recent balance slate, and to tie up a few loose ends in regards to their discussion about the lead up to the Horus Heresy.

13/04/2022

We are a bit ahead of schedule but the episode of the 15th is now available.

In today episode we are talking about Horus, more precisely Horus before the Horus Heresu event.

As always you can listen on Spotify, Google Podcast, Anchor and NOW AVAILAIBLE ON Apple Podcast!

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP--8---Horus-Lupercal-e1h447b

EP 8 is here early for some reason! Come join us, as we discuss Horus Lupercal, the Warmaster, as he was in his salad days!

Mat and Dionne get together to discuss the long awaited return of short men with long beards, the metaphysical banishment of a certain group of angry di****ads, and about the galaxy's most destructive latchkey kid.

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-7---Denziens-of-the-Warp-Pt--2-e1gk41g

Rejoin Mat and Dionne as they reach the ''thrilling'', if poorly planned conclusion of their previous episode, ending the discussion of the 4 major Chaos Gods, and their realms.

15/03/2022

Somehow we managed not to accidentally delete this one! The end result is a 3.5 hour episode that is somehow better than the original, discussing all of the things we love about 40K, such as the number 9, collective nouns, Fallout 4, Futurama, and of course, a brief mention of the Dacia Sandero.

We also talk about some bird guy called Zinch?

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-6---Denizens-of-the-Warp-Pt--1-e1fnoi4

Having lost the original recording of this episode, due to what can only be described as gross negligence, Mat and Dionne are forced to sit down and re-record their discussion about the various non-people that inhabit The Warp. Predictably, the conversation steers into subject matter such as the col...

Our next episode is on it's way, for the 15th, and making up for the lost episode, this one somehow works out to be around 3 hours long, as we discuss all things Smelly, Confusing and Somewhat Poorly Thought Out

01/03/2022

Bad news! Our next episode is going to be delayed due to program crash deleting the entire thing 🙃

It's coming, but we're going to have to re-record the whole thing!

This just in! We're on Twitter now!

Because Mat doesn't understand the concept of a non-visual medium, here is a picture to accompany the recent episode, posted below!

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-5---Draigo-and-Craig--as-brought-to-you-by-the-new-Dacia-Sandero-e1edh6t

EP 5 is now up! A slight deviation from our regular format as we take a brief look at one of Dionne's favorite characters in between discussions about models and recent updates.

Dionne and Mat step away from the typical framework of their discussions to instead take some time to talk about models, both old and new, and Kaldor Draigo of the Grey Knights.

15/02/2022

Here's an actual video of Kaldor Draigo going about his business in the Warp.

13/02/2022

Coming up on the 15th:

Dionne and Mat decide to take a step away from our typical lore discussion to instead talk about some new or upcoming additions to the game, followed by Dionne talking about his favorite Warp-Travelling Space Paladin, and finally Mat taking a brief and stupid look at something a little more nostalgic and pointless.

06/02/2022

Coming shortly, you should be able to find us on Google Podcasts as well, instead of just Spotify/Anchor!

04/02/2022

In case anyone has missed it, the new Errata and FAQ's are out.

I'm sure everyone gets something worthwhile out if it, but the big take away is that Guard can finally issue tank order to all tanks, not just Russes!

About time!

EP 4 is up!

As a sort of follow up the the discussion in EP 3, this time Dionne and Mat take on the duel topics of the Imperial Truth and the Imperial Cult in an effort to help lay the groundwork for broader topics in the future.

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-4---Faith--Science--and-Birdhouse-Construction-A-Discussion-e1dmi4b

Mat and Dionne set out to cover the duel topics of both the Imperial Truth, and the Imperial Cult as a means of helping to establish the 'Why' of the 40K setting, pre and post-heresy.

31/01/2022

https://anchor.fm/whiteshield/episodes/EP-3---Erebus-e1dmgro

EP 3 is up!

In what was supposed to be a slightly longer episode, Mat and Dionne have a short discussion about one of the less significant, but nevertheless important characters in the 40K lore.

Dionne and Mat sit down to have a quick discussion about a scumbag named Erebus, as they set out to build up to the Horus Heresy.
