In the second segment we talk to Skari.  Skari is a long time Drukhari player and really created something special with his list.  It has a ton of tools and it’s always a pleasure to have him on the show.  Please take a look at the events and projects he’s a part of, including his own youtube channel.

We round out the show talking about what we think are the most powerful Endless Spells for Age of Sigmar.  The new set is up for pre-order now.  If you are even remotely curious about combat in a high fantasy setting please check out a demo of this game or tune into our coverage of it.

We’ll have more 40k and Sigmar coverage coming next week.  Please like, share and Subscribe.

Thank you and Enjoy!

Forge the Narrative is mostly a Warhammer 40k Podcast. Each episode is about an hour long. This ideally gives you something neat to listen to on your way to work, or on the way back home. Maybe you can even listen while you are painting or modeling!

Please follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook!

FTN mostly focuses on 40k, but again you will see in the first few episodes we take a severe deep dive into nerdom. These have been a blast to record and I hope they help pass the time for you.
