    In this episode, Bricky and DK dive into the irradiated, heavily augmented world of the Adeptus Mechanicus Skitarii. From their origins as nomadic scavengers on the toxic dunes of Mars during the Age of Strife to becoming the unquestioning, cyborg foot soldiers of the Machine God, we cover exactly what goes into the Mechanicum's relentless forces. 
    Discover the brutal process of the Corpus Skitarii, including the mandatory removal of eyelids & legs, and explore the massive variety of troops deployed by the Forge Worlds. We discuss Vanguard Rad-Troopers who dissolve their own armor with radiation, Sicarian Ruststalkers moving at blinding speeds as commandos, Pteraxii taking to the skies, and the Serberys Corps riding mechanical dogs into battle. Plus, a look at the highly questionable "Project Kataphron" and what standard Imperial Guardsmen actually think of their AdMech counterparts.

    The Black Templars thought they were showing up to the feudal world of Gabal to burn away the "urc" filth and bring the planet back into the Imperial fold. They definitely weren't expecting to run straight into the Beast of Armageddon himself. ​This week on Adeptus Ridiculous, Bricky, DK and Kirioth dive into the absolute madness of Denny Flowers' Ghazghkull Thraka: Warlord of Warlords. We are talking maximum Orky goodness: the Blood Axes setting wildly elaborate mountain-crushing traps, Grotsnik performing completely unhinged mid-battle surgery, Glinteef Goldakka's fabled "Mega Smasha" titan-killer WarKopta and Ghazghkull going toe-to-toe with Black Templar Marshal Adenauer.

    The Humans Who QUIT The Imperium & Survived | Warhammer 40k Lore

    In this episode, Bricky, DK, and Kirioth dive into the Severan Dominate, a rare example of a faction actually managing to secede from the Imperium of Man. On paper, seceding is as easy as just quitting, but the real difficulty is keeping the secession going. Led by the "pious" Duke Severus XIII, this splinter faction has held itself together in a dangerous area of space. Believing the Periphery sub-sector was his by right, the Duke orchestrated fake supply shortages to force his citizens into desperate rebellion.
    To maintain his grip, the Duke formed dark pacts with a desperate Drukhari kabal known as the Children of Thorns. Throw in an unexpected Ork invasion from Waaagh! Grimtoof, and you have the recipe for the only definitively successful secessionist group in 40K history.

    The Iron Warriors are expanding their borders, and they absolutely do not care who they have to bulldoze to do it! This week, Bricky, DK, and Kirioth dive into the "Reign of Iron" lore supplement. With the Eye of Terror massively expanded after the fall of Cadia, Perturabo has set his sights on building the "Infinite Citadel" and claiming the highly-valuable Forge World of Agripinaa. But to get there, Warsmith Kravek Morne has to do some serious house cleaning. Listen in as the boys break down the Iron Warriors sneaking up on the Black Legion "Grave Robbers" who were looting Cadia, leading to the brutal execution of Lord Iordax Quan. From there, it's an all-out meat grinder on Toros Tertium against Ursula Creed and the Cadian 8th. And just when you think the Iron Warriors have it in the bag, Darnath Lysander and the Imperial Fists arrive to crash the party—mostly because they just really, really hate Perturabo's sons. Oh, and Eldrad shows up at the end.

    What happens when the biggest hater in the galaxy spends 10,000 years locked in his room with an endless supply of daemonic data? You get the Infinite Citadel. Bricky and DK dive into the massive new background information on Perturabo and the Iron Warriors. From ditching Horus during the Siege of Terra to torturing Rogal Dorn into submission at the Iron Cage, Peter Turbo has always played the long game. Now, operating out of the nightmare world of Medrengard, he's weaponizing his resentment to build a fortress system so massive it spans the gulfs between stars. Get ready for the Reign of Iron.
