Show Notes
Ever wonder what happens when you mix dark gods, self-driving cars, and a dysfunctional team of grimdark misfits with questionable decision-making skills? Welcome to the Warhammer 40K actual play recap you didn’t know you needed.
Episode Summary
In this delightfully chaotic recap, the RPGBOT crew careens through a whirlwind of topics, from the pending excitement of new Pathfinder 2 classes to the mechanized nightmare of self-driving job loss. But the star of the show? A deep dive into the ridiculous, horrifying, and sometimes oddly comedic world of Warhammer 40k: Imperium Maledictum.
The gang reflects on their actual play experience, sharing insights on the warp-charged mechanics of psychic powers, the elegance (yes, really) of the d100 system, and the sweet spot between cosmic horror and laugh-out-loud party banter.
Also: why your next campaign might just need a healthy dose of paranoia, failed rolls, and heretical banter.
