09:45 The Episode
Guilliman is back, but the Imperium is a mess, and his Ultra-Depression is kicking in full force. In this episode, we kick off our three-part series on the Dark Imperium books, diving into the massive conflict that brings the Avenging Son face-to-face with his brother Mortarion: The Plague Wars.
​Ultramar is struggling under the weight of Chaos rot, and Mortarion is aiming to choke the realm with disease. We explore the tragic and horrific transformation of the hospital world of Iax into a literal breeding ground for Nurgle's decay, and see how Guilliman plans to hold his territory together by reforming the Tetrarchy to make the 500 Worlds stronger.
​Plus, we break down Guilliman's confusing new reality in M41. From dealing with the fanatical Ecclesiarchy and his new Militant-Apostolic Mathieu, to navigating a deadly Legends of the Hidden Temple style obstacle course just to talk to a 100% definitely-not-sentient VTuber version of Belisarius Cawl.
