Ben and Steve talk through every game, his overall approach and we get some tips on how to deal with specific armies. He's a brilliant guest and this is a lot of fun! Also - we have brand new dice!! They literally dropped a few minutes before we recorded the episode, so there's a bit of excitement.

This is one hell of an episode. Special guest TJ Lannigan is the Lord of Chaos. We ask TJ to go through the World Eaters, Thousand Sons, Death Guard and Emperor's Children books and give us the tricks, the stratagems, and the stat lines of the best units as if they were playing into Knights. We ask him what our target priorities should be and what we can do against these incredibly tough armies. It's a gold mine of information from one of the best in the game!
