The Ironcage Podcast

EPISODE 41 - SNAKE ATTACKWe had plans to cover the our games, hobby progress, our plans for the next ME campaign and Blackshield / Shattered legion rumours. Some of these things were dropped when Ben displeased Wadjet and was cursed with a plague of snakes.If you are equally surprised that I ended the podcast on Snakes by Papa Roach, please feel free to guess at which host to complain to below;#1 Ben - @tiny_paint_aint_quaint#2 Manni - @dungeons_and_melta# Other losersCraig - @archmagos_insanecheeseJames - @iamdornhubWe can also be found at ironcagepodcast@gmail.comOutro - Snakes - Papa Roach

This is a great episode, the whole Ironcrew get together to talk about a bunch of games they played at a the first Madrigal Event.Then we move into a really important segment where we attempt to fix up some of the lesser known Legion Consuls.If you would like us to stop attempting to fix things, you may petition us on social media below;#1 Ben - @tiny_paint_aint_quaint#2 Manni - @dungeons_and_melta# Other losersCraig - @archmagos_insanecheeseJames - @iamdornhubWe can also be found at ironcagepodcast@gmail.com

This episode starts off rocky with a talk about haunted houses completely off topic. It gets worse as we talk about the quality of life improvements a vortex paint mixer will grant you.I would personally like to apologise for yet another talk about Evangelion on this episode.Oh where was I? Ahh, I almost forgot; the rest of this episode we rank the Legion Lords of War in tiers S - F.If you would like to tell us how we got the tiers wrong please feel free to share your crappy and objectively wrong opinions with us on social media below;#1 Ben - @tiny_paint_aint_quaint#2 Manni - @dungeons_and_melta# Other losersCraig - @archmagos_insanecheeseJames - @iamdornhubWe can also be found at ironcagepodcast@gmail.com

This is a cursed episode, Ben peals back the web of misinformation and propaganda that Manni has woven around the Salamanders legion to conceal their true strength.We then talk about Technoman, Cheese TV and Zoids for far too long.Craig and James ramble like the grumpy old men they are, perhaps this is the start of Iron Clans, a new Battletech division of the podcast devoted solely to the manipulation of spreadsheets.Would you like to contact us on social media? Me either. But in case you would like an email read out by these villains you may find our details below;#1 Ben - @tiny_paint_aint_quaint#2 Manni - @dungeons_and_melta# Other losersCraig - @archmagos_insanecheeseJames - @iamdornhubWe can also be found at ironcagepodcast@gmail.com

Finally; after a year of podcasting the crew begins to take show notes to write up a meaningful description.First up James, our resident lunatic is making a silent dice tray, and rambles at the other hosts until they silence him.Then we move into a battle of wits between Manni and James; Manni has learnt of James' latest plot which if left unchecked would allow him to run a unit of Angel's Tears as troops in his Alphalegion Destroyer company ZM force. Will Manni be able to prevent this nonsense?Which brings us finally to the meat of the episode; the hosts dig into the conclusion of the Murder in Mortdale event. We talk about James' list tailoring to beat Manni, and the consequences of his failure.Do you want to get excited for Legions Imperialis and The Old World?

This episode we are absent Manni who has been red carded for insider trading, match fixing and other nefarious plots.We take this opportunity to talk about a game of LIMP that Ben DM'd for James and foreign correspondent Mitch. We also get into the true issues with starting your LIMP adventure now, and it's not any of the gimmick issues with the miniatures or packaging.Finally, Ben's schemes bear fruit and the last segment of the episode we write James a list for him to take a run at Manni and end the Villainy of his Ashen Claws.If you would like to remind me I need to get these episodes out faster for the narrative to work you can assign me a Jira ticket below;#1 Ben - @tiny_paint_aint_quaint#2 Manni - @dungeons_and_melta# Other losersCraig - @archmagos_insanecheeseJames - @iamdornhubWe can also be found at ironcagepodcast@gmail.com

The heretic half of the ME 1.5 rules updates.Be aware there are two bits where the audio is messed up. It only goes for about a minute, you can struggle through or skip ahead.Now on to the rest; we also discuss the culmination of the event series that the Mournival crew has been playing most of this year. But that's not all, The Commissioner has been doing a census for the biggest scumbag units in the game, and he's going to start taxing you dummies now. We get into the results of the poll.If you have noticed the change in theme songs and want to find out who made them, ask us on social media below;#1 Ben - @tiny_paint_aint_quaint#2 Manni - @dungeons_and_melta# Other losersCraig - @archmagos_insanecheeseJames - @iamdornhubWe can also be found at ironcagepodcast@gmail.com
