Lorehammer - A Warhammer 40k Podcast

*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*The first two editions of Warhammer 40,000 stand apart as some of the strangest and most experimental eras in the setting’s history. In this episode, the crew dives into the wild foundations of early 40k, from the grimy satire and anarchic worldbuilding of Rogue Trader to the darker, more defined identity of 2nd edition. We explore the shifting art styles, bizarre lore, unforgettable characters, and over-the-top wargear that gave the universe its unique personality. Alongside the lore, we break down how the rules reflected the era itself, with detailed customization, chaotic gameplay, deadly vehicles, and armies packed with flavour over balance. It’s a look back at a version of 40k that felt unpredictable, weird, and full of imagination, where every page seemed to introduce something completely unhinged.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40kPatterns

*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*In this episode, we venture beyond conventional tanks and transports to examine the strangest and rarest vehicles ever employed by the Space Marines. From the mighty Stormbird and Kharybdis Assault Claw to specialized assault craft, tunneling war machines, and experimental one-off creations, we explore the incredible diversity of technology available during humanity's golden age of conquest. We'll uncover obscure designs, abandoned prototypes, and legendary relics that appeared only briefly in Imperial history before fading into myth. Whether soaring through the void, burrowing beneath enemy fortifications, or existing as unique creations known only from fragments of lore, these forgotten war machines reveal a side of the Astartes arsenal rarely seen in the 41st Millennium.
