Forge the narrative.

Hey everybody, welcome to Forge Narrative.

My name is Paul Murphy, your host, we are on the Bell of Los Holes podcast.

This episode, I believe, 184.

I'm so excited. I can't, before I hear some,

I've seen the death guard. I have seen the new death guard. And they are glorious. I saw a

site that's larger than a Marine. They didn't say whose it was, but I think we can all guess.

I'm going with Typhus. Well, Chris, I think we've just been upshowed.

The rumor, or I shouldn't say the rumor, what was stated was that it can kill a primark. Well, as it should. It's a beautiful sight. Well, I don't want to say, I don't necessarily say who it was, but I'd like the point is to, if you guys have noticed it right now, I have Justin Troupe and Chris Morgan. What up? Hey, guys, Paul's a bit hyper. I mean, I just came out of the

Games Workshop preview seminar and I'm again, I'm very excited and we'll talk about the things that we can talk about. I mean, they want it to be a special treat for the folks that are here, but we know there's going to be a bunch of picks and a bunch of talk, so we're going to talk about everything we possibly can with respect to that. So I'll say that. Fair enough. Lay it on us. Good sir.

Well, what was it? Which book was it, Chris? Where Mortarian sliced Horace. Where a Mortarian sliced Horace? Yeah, that's at the place where they're at the gates. What was that? Big Gate. It's where Mortarian slices Horace across the chest. To like like Horace bleed, so he goes into the gate and then lives his life and walking around like Drago through the warp. I'm in a doctor, right now, by the way. Some other folks just came into the room. I got Justin Pizza Fraza and Miles Hammerick from the wrong way kids joining me. Yeah. Got Ricky Agen, David Fields. Justin Pizza Party. And Jared Lane from the tryhards, soon to be conscripted to be wrong weekends, hopefully. It's happening. Just accept it. It's coming that way. But anyway, you guys know the book that I'm talking about when somebody's trying to open up a bottle in the marble to the countertop. That's not going to happen. Anyway, it's that kind of party. But where I was going is that Mortarian slices horse with his guard there. So we know that, let's say, if it were Mortarian Scyth, that it has the potential to at least dramatically wound Primarx. Yeah. I mean, you would think that Mortarian would have a scyth capable of doing such things. If, you know, Folgram can have his stabby death dagger and kill him in throat and almost kill him, you would think the scythe can do something. It wasn't just Death Guard Marines. It was also cultist. So we get zombies. No, these were, I mean, there would be the best looking zombies you've ever seen in your life.

So I don't know, but anyway.

Styling zombies?

Yeah, amazing models.

What we did get some information on Age of Sigma, I'll go ahead and put that out there, is that

there is a war scroll builder. It's a website, a browser-based website. I'm actually looking at my age of Sigmar people in the room right now and saying that there is a browser-based war scroll builder that is going to be supported by the Warhammer community site. It will be linked off. I didn't even know. I'm sitting next to the guy who coded it. He's very, I mean, he's a great guy. Tony Hashio, I'm probably mispronouncing his name. But anyway, I had to chat with him. I may try to get him on the show coming up soon to talk about this. But I just want to point out that it's going to be supported on the Warhammer community site. Well, the more that they can get traffic there, I think, the better, because I enjoy the site so far, but there's some features to it that it's, it's like, it's just shy of that perfect interaction feel. So, we'll get to more of that later. Hopefully we cover it in this section. And we'll be brief, I know. We'll probably do multiple segments over the course of the weekend. This is just Wednesday night of Adepticon, the new unofficial start date. And I want to say, this is also the four-year anniversary of Forge Narrative. We released our first show. I think it was March 22nd. Y'all can you make noise? Other people in the room are like, can we make noise? I'm flimpsed out. I'm so excited. Anyway, I'm pumped. So it's really cool to get this information and have it line up with that.

Anyway, couldn't have planned it better. So they did not call any of the stuff from 40K that

that they spoke about as any sort of addition change. So take that for what it is. Now,

we're talking about, you know, we're going to refer to it probably even in casual vernacular as 8th edition. But they did show a slide that had open, matched, and narrative play. And then they went on to say that, hey, we want to reward people that stick to a fact. They didn't say stick to a faction. They said built thematic armies, which, you know, that's perfectly fine for them to say. That doesn't sound like Aege Sigma at all. Well, there will be command benefits to people that take and build thematic armies. That's that as far as they went. I got a question in the audience. Is winning considered thematic? Well, funny you say that. I don't think that matter.

The question was if you couldn't hear it, is winning thematic.

Winning is a theme.

Yeah, you know?
