Episode 261 - Echoes of War: Aftermath

In Episode 261 we're thrilled to welcome back our longtime cohost and friend, Adan Tejada, to The Independent Characters! Adan joins Carl for a wide-ranging discussion that starts where many games and campaigns end - exploring the tools, techniques, and traditions that help preserve the epic narratives forged on the tabletop. From post-campaign surveys to lore write-ups, and archiving your group or clubs shared mythology, we look at how to give your games the grand epilogue they deserve. If your Warhammer stories stop once the dice go cold, you're missing one of the best parts.

But that's not all—we also sit down with Adan for a candid conversation about his recent 3.5-year stint working for Games Workshop. From staffing one of Southern California's flagship Warhammer stores to managing a single-staffer shop, Adan shares insights on what it's really like behind the counter. What works, what doesn't, and how Games Workshop's retail model functions on the ground floor all get covered in this honest and informative segment.

Whether you're building out your games epilogues or just curious about what goes on in your local Warhammer store, this episode offers something for every hobbyist who loves the game behind the game. It's a look at the stories we tell after the battles are over—and the people who help keep the hobby alive in the real world.
