Combat Phase

Mr. 40K Eric joins us as we take a look back at highlights, trends and themes of 2024 across several game systems, as well as thoughts and predictions for 2025. Enjoy!

We do exactly what it says on the tin:  Holy Havoc and event thoughts, LOTS of news, and Ossiarch Bone Reapers. We plan to do an in-depth year in review episode next time and then we'll be set for going into 2025.   Enjoy and Happy Holidays!

We're joined by friend of the show and sometimes-cohost of my favorite podcast, Cubic Shenanigans, Dave Nordstrom to talk this exciting new book! Love the changes from the faction pack. Enjoy!

Ben Stoddard makes his first appearance on Combat Phase talking the new, ongoing dwarf portion of Pannithor for Kings of War. Really smart, informative, and enjoyable. Let us know what Kings of War novel you are most curious about for a chance to win a book. Hope you enjoy!   Check out and keep up to date with Ben's work and general creative genius at https://benstoddardauthor.blogspot.com  Winged Hussar Publishing: https://www.whpsupplyroom.com/#gsc.tab=0

Kenny & Tori are back, this time talking the Stormcast Eternals New Battle Tome for AoS 4th Edition, and we're fans. Hopefully you are a fan as well by the end.  Enjoy! ***GW supplied a digital review copy of the book & new models to review. Loved the new models!

We're back, unloading some of that heaping backlog of recorded content to share. This time, Kenny & Tori become Slaves...to darkness! Enjoy!

Mike joins us to talk Nighthaunt and why they're such a boogeyman of AoS. Enjoy!

We're back with new cohost Tori for an exciting look at the very first new Battletome of Age of Sigmar 4th edition.  Enjoy!

We're back for Episode 400! Continuing our series of AoS 4th ed. Faction Packs, Tori returns to talk Soulblight Gravelords and Hunter leads us into a forbidden peak at the Disciples of Tzeentch.   Enjoy!

We're back and AoS 4th edition is here (for the most part)! This episode continues the coverage of rules and Faction Packs for the Sylvaneth and Blades of Khorne armies.  Ep 399 - AoS 4th Sylvaneth & Khorne - Faction Pack reviews The wave of new AoS rules and armies continues and this time it’s Sylvaneth with Aaron returning, making his Combat Phase, debut, Hunter, talking evil murder folk for Khorne. You’ll hear Hunter on several of these reviews so buckle up and LET’S GO!!  Sylvaneth first Blades of Khorne ~ 1:45:00   More of already-recorded reviews from the last few weeks will be coming at you fast! See you next time for Episode 400!   Enjoy!

Tori joins me again as we begin our long coverage of AoS 4th edition. We start with a high-look at the overall rules and then some practical applications as we look at Faction Pack: Ogor Mawtribes. We figured that, since the faction focus seemed lackluster and a lot of consternation among Ogor players, we'd start here. Turns out, since so many things in the game hit on 4s now, not quite so bad. Have a listen and tell us what you think! **GW sent preview copies of rules and materials Thanks and enjoy!

We're back, welcoming Tori back on the show to discuss the final Dawnbringers book rules & the new Dark Oath release. Enjoy!

Mr. 40K returns to lead us through a look at the new 40K Chaos Space Marines codex. Enjoy!

The original co-host of Combat Phase joins me this time chatting what we know of AoS 4th edition. Of course, more info keeps coming each week. Hope you're as excited for it as we are. Enjoy!

We're back after a break which was used to prep for, attend, and then recover from, Adepticon 2024! Mr. 40K, the legend himself, Eric returns as we catch up on a lot of content to post. This time, we naturally had to cover ORKS first because, Orks is da bestz! Custodes and Tau are coming, plus Old World, Heresy and Legions Imperialis, not to worry.  Enjoy!

Travis joins me to talk the latest Dawnbringers book: The Mad King Rises. Then Mr. 40K Eric talks us through the new 40K Balance update and other resources coming out this week.   Enjoy!

Back from the holiday break with the first of several already-recorded episodes coming out over the next couple weeks. Joe returns to the show as my guest going over the new Dark Angels book and army box for 40K. Joe's a massive fan of the Dark Angels, so we hope you enjoy it as much as he did. They really play like how the narrative and traits surrounding the chapter's lore.  As I've been asked, here's what's instore for upcoming episodes: Dawnbringers, Painting, Black library focus from fans and a HUGE surprise… The Old World is certainly getting coverage as I prepare what will likely be a series of guests over the weeks to discuss this crunchy new game. Hint: Although daunting on the rules-front, I’m loving that my favorite setting ever has returned, and even in a previous time period.   Enjoy!

Mr. 40K Eric is back, talking some Necrons this time. Enjoy!
