  • 14: ”Dump Hub” | Warhammer 40K: The Imperium - Adeptus Astartes Pt2 - Specialised Astartes
    In our second episode on the Adeptus Astartes we look at the more ‘specialist’ forces of the Adeptus Astartes. We first look at more specific foundings, and their confusing order, and their requirements changed to fit a new darker imperium, such as the Exorcists, and examine the motivations in their creation. We pause briefly to discuss awful sounding words before looking towards the Inquisitors of the Ordo Xenos as they formed and use the Astartes of the Death Watch, a Xenos killing force to which chapters second a handful of brothers at a time. Finally, seeing their origins in the later years of the Horus Heresy, the Grey Knights are laid bare as a force of Daemon hunting warriors built to help humanity withstand the post-heresy enemies the Imperium would face.   This month's episode is sponsored by the Corpse Starch Delight.   Show Notes and Imagery for this Episode: https://layingdownthelore.com/40k-ep14/   _______________________   If you dig what we're putting down and want to support the show, head over to our Patreon.

  • 13: ”Spalflings” | Warhammer 40K: The Imperium - Adeptus Astartes Pt1
    In our first episode on the Adeptus Astartes we start with a look at birth of the modern Space marine chapter; The Codex Astartes and the Second Founding. We dig into what is involved in founding a Space Marine Chapter and what organisational structure each Codex Chapter and its companies. We examine the iconic arms, armour, and vehicles of the Astartes. We then turn from creation to maintenance and look at the recruitment processes of established chapters including the trials, Gene-Seed, and conditioning that is common to all chapters. We then turn our attention to the most recent innovation, the Primaris Space Marines and the Ultima Founding, focusing on the three classes: Awoken, Indoctrinated, and Ascended. We close out with a look at some of the more famous Chapters and their deviation from the codex Astartes.   This month's episode is sponsored by the Apothecary Rick Niviera.   Show Notes and Imagery for this Episode: https://layingdownthelore.com/40k-ep13/   _______________________   If you dig what we're putting down and want to support the show, head over to our Patreon.

  • 12: ”War Farmers” | Warhammer 40K: The Imperium - Adeptus Mechanicus
    In this episode we look at the kingdom within the Imperium, the techno-feudal sociopaths of the Adeptus Mechanicus. We delve into their origins, their motivations, their love for the knee-healing Emperor, and their fall from grace during the heresy. We look at their political status with the Imperium and their hate/hate relationship with the Ecclesiarchy. We briefly examine their hierarchy and the stratified expertise the four great Magos Schola that informs their endeavours. We then dive into their methods of war, their troops and the esoteric warmachine that are totally not used to regain the power of the STCs. Finally, we take a gander at the fearsome Knights and Titans that so define the Adeptus Mechanicus.   This month's episode is sponsored by the Meka-Niche.   Show Notes and Imagery for this Episode: https://layingdownthelore.com/40k-ep12/   _______________________   If you dig what we're putting down and want to support the show, head over to our Patreon.

  • 11: ”Hammer Juice” | Warhammer 40K: The Imperium - The Astra Militarum, Navy & Assassins
    The Imperium Part #3 - The Military. We take a broad and expansive peek at the the Imperial Guard AKA the Astra Militarum AKA cannon fodder. We look at the composition and formation of the Regiments and briefly discuss some of the more famous units and regiments, all under the watchful eyes of a Commissar. We look askew at the noble yet filthy abhumans that serve alongside the true human warriors of the militarum and then turn to the armoured fists of the humanity, Tanks! (you're welcome). Leaving the foot-sloggers planetside we take a gander at the majestic warmachines of the Imperial Navy where Cral gets lost in the hulls, classifications and general romance of void based warfare. We close out the episode with a furtive glance at the shadowed killers of the Officio Assassinorum ... or do we? ...   This month's episode is sponsored by the Commissars Do The Funniest Things.   Show Notes and Imagery for this Episode: https://layingdownthelore.com/40k-ep11/   _______________________   If you dig what we're putting down and want to support the show, head over to our Patreon.

  • 10: ”Spray & Pray” | Warhammer 40K: The Imperium - The Ecclesiarchy
    The Imperium Part #2 - The Faithful. In this episode we look at the perfectly reasonable and not at all fascist faithful of the Imperium of Man. Starting with the Ecclesiarchy, AKA Space Church, we look at the history and structure of the Cult Imperialis and just how many imperial institutions it has tendrils in.  We turn to the Ecclesiarchy’s  militant arm the Adepta Soroitas. We delve into the history and structure of the Sisters of Battle and their many devious and horrific war machines. Finally, we briefly explore perhaps the most powerful institution within and without the Imperium, The Emperor’s Inquisition. These supreme investigators have the authority to kill worlds and raise armies for endless campaigns against the threats to humanity.   This month's episode is sponsored by the Webway Call Centre.   Show Notes and Imagery for this Episode: https://layingdownthelore.com/40k-ep10/   _______________________   If you dig what we're putting down and want to support the show, head over to our Patreon.

About Laying Down The Lore: Warhammer 40K

A bi-monthly podcast focusing on the lore of the sprawling Warhammer 40,000 universe. With tongues firmly in our cheeks, we will help you to separate Drukhari from Dark Angels, Tyranids from Tau, and Craftworlds from Chaos Marines, and generally answer the burning question “what’s up with this Warhammer 40K stuff”Join Ben and Cral, a couple of self-confessed Warhammer noobs, as they journey into a fantasy institution guided by ageing fanboy Darren as he attempts to distill and summarise 30 years worth of Warhammer knowledge into bite-sized chunks. Informative, irreverent, and largely irrelevant, Laying Down The Lore will come to be your indispensable guide to the world of Warhammer 40,000.
