    Warhammer 40,000: Fire Warrior is a first-person shooter for PC and PlayStation 2. The game follows a Tau Fire Warrior, Shas'ui'T'au'Kais, and his heroic acts to save the Ethereal Ko'vash, while fighting against the forces of the Imperium (Notably the Imperial Guard and the Raptors).

    Further into the game, Kais teams up alongside Captain Ardias of the Ultramarines 3rd company during a temporary cease fire negotiated between the two factions. This is because the forces of the Chaos Word Bearers intervene with the fighting on the planet. Eventually the planet is ordered to be cleansed through an Orbital Strike bombardment ordered by Ardias to rid the planet of Chaos taint.

    What happens to Shas'ui'Kais in the events afterwards is unknown.

    There is also a multiplayer mode consisting of Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and Capture the Flag. Eight multiplayer maps are included with the game, Deathmatch having its own, and Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag having their own. Fire Warrior was one of the first Playstation 2 games to support 8 player multiplayer using its broadband adaptor.

    The Tomb Kings are the long dead rulers of Nehekhara from thousands of years ago. Each city had several dynasties each with several kings and as such there are hundreds of kings vyeing for power now they have all risen from the dead. They would constantly wage war on each other to spread their influence across Nehekhara. The greatest kings ruled in Khemri, making it the biggest and strongest city in Nehekhara. Certainly the greatest ruler ever to grace the lands of Nehekhara rose here. Settra the Imperishable founded Khemri and conquered the entire land. He lived far longer than most before he eventually died. He was one of the last to be awoken by Nagash's spell, possibly due to his age, but he immediately took control of the kingdom back and commanded all others to return to their tombs.Each king had a pyramid built for them in the necropolis of their city, adorning it with fine statues they would use in the afterlife. Also buried with them is their kingly chariot and steeds waiting for the day they are called back to the world of life. The Tomb Kings are revived by the Liche Priests when they are needed to defend an area that Settra cannot get to in time.The loyal non-ruling sons of Kings, the Tomb Princes, were mummified and were raised as well.

    Precious little is known about two of the twenty Space Marine Legions, numbered II and XI, and their respective Primarchs, as their records are simply noted as having been "expunged" or "destroyed" in Imperial listings of the 20 Legions. However, nothing is known for sure about the names of the Legions, their Primarchs, homeworlds and their ultimate fate. There are conflicting reports as to whether the two unknown Legions met their fate prior to or after the Horus Heresy and which side they joined in the Heresy, if they participated in it.

DK “what’s this faction?”, bricky “oh my dear sweet summer child?”

I love ad-Ric because it is a light hearted podcast which goes over good lore while making it very enjoyable at the same time. I think that dynamic of DK slowly learning about 40K is great, and I like to think I have learned with him. This podcast is for people who want a laugh and want to learn at the same time, but I would hope is still helpful to those well versed in the gameplay (not me) if they wanted a laugh or wanted to learn about a specific faction, oh and one more thing (shyismyfavouritepersoneventhoughsheisonlyactivein thediscordplskeeponyellingatbrickyandDKandbrickyilovedyoursubnauticaseriesandORKSORKSORKSORKS)😁

Hilarious, informative but most of all Ridiculous!!!

I had been an admirer of the Warhammer franchise (40k and Fantasy) for a number of years now but never truly dived into the lore properly because it seemed so daunting and I didn’t really a clue where to start properly but then I found these guys !!! And they really made this grimdark world come to life as well as poke fun at the most Ridiculous aspects of it And if you guys are reading this Thank you!

Exactly what I was looking for

just finished episode 3 and feel comfortable giving it a rating. I'm really enjoying this series. Neat 30 min - 1 hour packages of lore, which often reflects on information given in previous episodes, allowing me to piece the universe together.

I can understand if an expert speaking about what he loves could get carried away and ends up going on a tangent about other related topics, but in this podcast the host successfully tells a story, without straying too far from the topic in hand.

Enough information is given to provide an idea for the warhammer lore, but not an overwhelming amount. Its pace is steady, giving itself time to reflect and laugh at the ridiculousness of the lore, some of which got a chuckle out of me.

I'd highly recommend this to others who want to look into the warhammer universe.

Good

I came across Chris Hammer via Audible editors weekly pick, I now race to download every now release. The narrator Dorje adds even more excitement to every chapter. Can not recommend enough.
