This is the nicest army release box for this edition to date.  It comes with some amazing models, the data cards and host of brand new figures.  We also get a first look at the Tau Codex.  Will they have what it takes to jump into the meta mix?

Hey folks,

Please consider grabbing an FTN T-shirt to help us celebrate the shows anniversary. The link can be found here. Proceeds will go to doing something nice for cast members of the show. The sticker is cool too and has been on my laptop for a year.  It’s the best sticker I’ve ever owned.

We also started a Patreon for the FTN show.  This will help us a lot in the form of being able to hire an editor and a few other things.   If it is anywhere within your ability to support us on that platform please consider doing so. The link is right here.

GW was kind enough to send us a box to review. There are some big changes here and you know people  don’t like a lot of change right?  Crisis Suits get an overhaul but they do get some cool new rules.  Are more rules what is needed to offset the weapon options that used to appear in units?  That utility is gone but not forgotten.  Tau players will need to find it in other areas.  They just might be able to though…

The close combat might of the Tau is gonna be…  well, it’s gonna be possible but I’m not sure how mighty it is yet.  One thing we do know for sure is that the Tau will be able to push a LOT of models to the middle of the table before the game even starts for real for not a lot of points.   A ton of the game is played in the first couple of rounds and the Tau kind of have some tricks to totally lock the mid board objectives down while potentially threatening the entire table.

We also talk about the new Kroot Hunting Pack.  These models are amazing.  This box will certainly sell out so make sure and get the pre-orders in ASAP.

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. We are now on Pandora!! If you’re looking for another place to listen or you’ve shifted to that platform you can find us there.
