Summary

Episode 118 of The Independent Characters is our long awaited Show of Force: The Angels of Death!

Carl, Adan and Justin spend some time discussing their Hobby Progress and Games Played before we move into the meat of the show.

You may or may not realize it, but The Space Marines are a pretty large part of Warhammer 40k (who are we kidding? You know that!), and so this Show of Force takes quite a bit of time to go through. Even with the length of this episode, we are still only scratching the surface of the most popular army in Galaxy!

Additionally we get none other than Douglas Johnson of Tablewar fame to join us, and talk briefly about the Tablewar offerings.That's great and all, but you may not realize Doug is also an incredibly accomplished Warhammer 40k Tournament player, with multiple GT's under his belt and several appearances in the Top 16 at the Adepticon finals. Doug also happens to be a huge fan of Space Marines and spends some time with us talking about them in competition.

With only five remaining episodes of The Independet Characters, we plan to make the best of them! We hope you enjoy this one.

0:00.0	I'm going to Welcome to the Independent Characters episode 118 118 this episode we are talking
0:24.1	about show of force the angels of death yes we are if you are unfamiliar with show of
0:31.3	force what it is is on the independent characters we do not
0:35.2	nor have we ever done codex overviews. Wait a minute we're not gonna be reading every
0:39.2	unit what they do? We gotta go back to the show notes hang on. What we actually do in the show of force, the concept of this was to really ultimately answer the
0:48.7	question, why would you want to collect and play this army.
0:53.0	So in doing so, we're going to talk about a little bit about the Codex.
0:56.5	We're going to talk about the history of the army.
0:59.4	As Games Workshop has put it out, we're going to talk about the history of the Army in terms of the story and
1:06.2	narrative around it. We're going to talk about all the support you get from Black Library to
1:10.1	Forge World to everything. They have a few resources for this one. Just a few. This is a rather lengthy
1:16.2	episode and because of the sheer amount of volume around space Marines I think it felt like we didn't quite go as in-depth on
1:26.8	this we had to skim the surface on other parts otherwise this would have either
1:30.4	been a two-part or eight hours of coverage, and I don't think we have that in us at this point.
1:36.7	But I do think we bring up some really interesting points here and some great discussion around the
1:41.4	Space Marine Army. So for those people who do their hobby
1:44.2	whether they listen to this settle in you can get a lot of models done yeah you'll get a lot
1:48.0	done especially if you're working on the hobby progress challenge for 2015 there's an announcement
1:52.4	at the end of the show.
1:53.2	Yeah, stay tuned there. We have a really important announcement at the end about the Hobby
1:55.9	Progress Challenge. Don't worry, it's still going.
1:58.9	Yep, absolutely.
