Wow! 50th episode! Just in time for the release of 9th Edition 40k. What an occasion! Dan and Steve are very excited to talk about their thoughts on narrative gaming in the new edition and in today's episode provide an overview of the brand-new Crusade campaign system. Dan and Steve also level themselves up by rolling on a few tables to test out the RPG-like progression system within the game, with some fairly interesting results... This new campaign system looks like the perfect way to get people back into 40k after some time away, or perhaps play with a group of friends over the coming months.

Welcome to the very first episode in a brand new series of narratively-focused discussion about 40k, which we're calling the Explorator series! In this new series, Steve and Dan will be exploring (hence the name!) various aspects of the Warhammer 40k universe. We'll be looking at the topic through three main perspectives; Lore, Modelling and Gaming. In this debut Explorator episode, we focus on one of Dan's favourite factions, arguably the most dangerous Xenos faction out there, the Tyranids! Let us know what you think of the episode, what aspects of 40k you'd like us to cover in future Explorator episodes, and how we might improve the structure of such episodes too. We're always keen to hear your feedback!
