The 40k Lorecast

On Today’s cast we cover how warp travel is performed by the imperium in the 40K universe. We open with how a warp travel functions, as opposed to FTL drives. We then get into the addition of Navigators and Astropaths to the experience of travel, and some canon conflicts therein. After that we move into the Gellar fields, so as to avoid being in the movie Event Horizon. We then dive into warp travel itself, the experience of those doing it. Then we close out with coverage of how the galaxy is segmented, and the great Nexus AutomaticaPatreonMerchandiseDiscord Link:Our WebsiteRetro RecallAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On today’s cast we cover the transition from Age of Technology into the Age of Strife. We open with mankind’s unification into the federation. Then we cover the mass appearance of psychers across the galaxy, and how they began to cause chaos into the federation. But then things get massively worse as the men of iron rise up in the cybernetic rebellion. We spend time talking about the nightmare that was the cybernetic rebellion, both during and the effects of it afterwards. After this, the warp turns effectively opaque and the entire galaxy begins to burn with the effects of it. We then close out focusing on Sol during this period, with a focus on the planets and quick aside into the unification wars.PatreonMerchandiseDiscord Link:Our WebsiteRetro RecallAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
