    Fulgrim (also known as the Phoenician, the Illuminator, the Prefector of Chemos) is the Primarch of the Emperor's Children, one of the twenty Primarchs created by the Emperor in the earliest days of the Imperium, just after the end of the Age of Strife. Fulgrim, like the other Primarchs, was sucked from Terra by the Gods of Chaos and placed on a faraway world in an attempt to prevent the coming of the Age of the Imperium. Constantly seeking to emulate the Emperor by perfecting himself, Fulgrim's obsession bred a hubris that drove him to eventually become consumed by the Chaos God Slaanesh. AND NOW HE IS BACK!

    Norsca is a frigid, arctic peninsula and Human cultural region located in the far north of the Old World, though not officially considered a cultural or historical part of it by southern scholars. Norsca lies on the very doorstep of the northern Chaos Wastes themselves. It is bordered to the south by the freezing waters of the Sea of Claws, to the north by the Sea of Chaos and the Chaos Wastes, and to the east by the roving Kurgan tribes of the Eastern Steppes.

    Norsca is inhabited by a race of savage and ferocious Men known variously as Norscans, Norsemen or the Norse. Long ago, in the time of Sigmar, when these people still inhabited the northern lands of what would become the Empire, they were known as the Norsii.

    A δτ-class or Death World (sometimes spelled as Deathworld) is a world classification defined by its extremely dangerous or aggressive native flora and fauna. These eco-systems are finely balanced between continual destruction and lightning-fast reproduction. Death worlds take many forms, ranging from jungle-covered hell-holes with carnivorous plants and animals to barren, volcanic wastelands racked by ion storms. The most famous and notorious Death World is the hellish planet of Catachan

    Some worlds can be turned into Death Worlds, like what occurred on Indiga after numerous captive giant predators escaped from their zoos. When this happens, these worlds are labeled as Man-Made Death Worlds.

    Humans can, and do, live on these worlds, but it is a never-ending struggle. On many death worlds it is as if the entire bio-mass of the planet were consciously motivated against human settlement - concentrating forces against intruders to destroy them. Death worlds with human settlements or colonies can have populations of 1,000 to 15,000,000.

    Death worlds are not usually inhabited, and are nearly impossible to colonise but still need to be explored, which means the establishment of outposts and other support facilities. Some planets have rich mineral wealth, animal life, vegetables or gases, so tithes might range from Solutio Tertius to Solutio Prima.

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.
