We are joined this week by David Guymer (well, OK, he was at the end of the BL Weekender) to discuss Realmslayer (starring Brian Blessed as Gotrek!) and next week we’ll dive into Warhammer  Quest Blackstone Fortress in detail.   Enjoy!   @warlordguymer Behind the Scenes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnFDfYawHL0&t=2s
