Episode 65 Gangs of Yesteryear Spyre Hunters

Hey scummers!

In this episode, the lads take a trip way, way above the sump and into the polished nightmare of the Spire, where the rich don’t just look down on you, they come down to hunt you for sport.

We’re talking Spyre Hunting Parties. Aristocratic heirs wrapped in ancient, near-mythical suits that turn bored nobles into walking war crimes. From the lightning fast Yelds to the walking tanks that are the Orrus rigs, we break down what makes these silver-spoon psychos tick, why they head into the Underhive in the first place, and what happens when privilege meets a shotgun at close range.

Naturally, things get a bit unhinged.

Spamuel develops a deeply misguided obsession with the Eldar this episode, confidently declaring that Spyrers are basically just the human version of Aspect Warriors. He then doubles down by trying to match each Spyre rig to an Aspect Shrine equivalent, much to Nathan’s visible frustration and increasingly aggressive sighing.

Meanwhile, Nathan tries (and fails) to steer the episode back on track.

And yes, we address the most important questions in in Necromunda lore:

Do Malcadon Spyrers spend their downtime doing impressions of Tobey Maguire?

Will the Flappy Lads ever get their milk in a regular way?

Are Patriarchs just old fellas who think these youngins are just too damn lazy?

You’ll have to listen to find out, but let’s just say, there may or may not be a whispered “I missed the part where that’s my problem” echoing through the underhive vents before someone gets webbed to a wall.

Expect lore, laughs, and a healthy fear of anything descending from above in a glowing murder-suit.

Stay safe downhive, scummers.

But if you hear something moving in the dark?

It’s already too late.
