Hi Folks, Sorry to disappoint but we just didn't have time to put together an episode this week. New jobs, making games, new lives and new wives. Y'know? We'll be back very soon with your favourite mix of amateurishness and xenos misting.
Our thoughts on the Hammer and Bolter episode Old Bale Eye, which was free for 24 for hours as part of the hype campaign for Warhammer+, the Netflix of Warhammer
The completion of our Opus - Ultramarines: the Movie. Where the training and arts of the Ultramarines show through in their otherworldly ability to identify an axe wound that slices a head in half as fatal
Your Primarchs love you like sons and daughters and so have provisioned you with a bonus episode while they lock themselves away to concentrate on completing their life's works. Behold Ultramarine: the movie. We all feel bad for John Hurt.
We're still dealing with the audio gremlins but we've returned to finish of Betrayer which turns out to be.......not a novel. It's a tone piece. Or maybe more of a pitch document for a better, more accomplished book. There are some really good bits but they aren't attached to plot or even the grander overarching heresy narrative.
Today we discuss the first part of Betrayer. It's a vague and often directionless narrative with some nice moments and characterisation. We've talked about it for a bout 45 minutes and still can't really say what it's about. We've also put out a request for ideas for some upcoming bonus episodes so do get in touch at horusheretics@gmail.com
Your Primarchs apologise again (most other Primarchs would apologise eh? So....be thankful?) for missing last week's episode. To make it up to you, and to celebrate our 50th episode we've decided to make this ep an even bigger mess than our normal bullshit. But we enjoyed it. A lot.
We had planned on having an episode this week but time really got away from us. I explain why and if you care to listen to this episode you may even learn a thing to two about your favourite heretics.\\We had planned on having an episode this week but time really got away from us.

We discuss the first part of Angel Exterminatus, Neil's impending vaccination, insects and even the plot of this book. Perterabo seems like someone we both want to read more about and Fulgrim is...........the best Primarch??
We finish off Shadow of treachery and we'll be frank, this episode sucks. We recorded it and were not on our game because of other life shit. Sorry about that. We'll improve in the next one for sure
We begin this short story collection with more discussion about the black library writers room which almost certainly doesn't exist and start to reflect on a series of stories with.........Character development?.......really?.........Yes really! and it's great!
We finish talking about the superb Fear to Tread and sympathise (Read: Laugh at) with poor old Amit who has a lot to deal with in his life and ends up going full vampire.
This episode we begin the Doom-like Fear to Tread. It's full face ripping, blood misting and meat smoke. So join us as the perfect moment for treachery has finally revealed itself.
We're taking a week off due to another commitments and moving to a new recording schedule. We'll still be releasing episodes at the same rate, just recording them differently so hopefully you won't even notice. Which begs the question, why am I even writing this? Find out next time on Horus Heretics!
We finish up the final two stories in the Primarchs anthology and end up incredibly disheartened and fearing for the future. Fun!!!
We discuss stories about Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus in the first half of The Primarchs, the first collection of novellas in the Horus Heresy series. The TLDR on this is they're crap.
The conclusion to Know no Fear by Dan Abnett. We encounter a young dreadnought, a vacuum surviving primarch and an enormous snake with hooves. Just another normal day on the black library beat.
Action, betrayal and precise recording of time in the first part of Dan Abnett's Know No Fear.
Not really an episode as such. Just festive good wishes to you all and a plan to return in January with what you love best about the Horus Heretics!
A re-imagining of A Christmas Carol in the Warhammer 40k/30k universe. The URL for the Kickstarter (which I'm afraid has nothing to do with the Horus Heresy) is https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/commonprofytgames/strange-sickness

Keep up the great work guys, loving every minute. I said to a work colleague today "I'm pretty sanguine". There was a quick "Ah, er" then they moved on without comment.

Shit man, probably the best heresy cast I've heard. Great work lads!
