Episode 277 - Crossing the Edition Rubicon
<p>What happens when an edition starts showing its age and a new one looms on the horizon? In this episode, Carl, Adan, and Josh take a hard look at the end of 10th Edition and what GW's own history tells us about what comes next. Because this isn't the first time the 40k Universe has gone through a transition, and if you know where to look, the patterns are hiding in plain sight.</p> <p>From the Narrative Avalanche of closing Warzones – the 500 Worlds, the Maelstrom, and the legendary return of Armageddon – to the historical precedent set by the Gathering Storm and the return of Guilliman at the end of 7th Edition, the crew breaks down exactly how GW winds down an edition and why, even in the chaos, it's actually a great time to be a fan.</p> <p>But the conversation doesn't stop there. 11th Edition previews are already dropping, and the internet is already on fire. Cover rule changes, new terrain layouts, character reveals; the crew walks through what's been shown and, more importantly, how to think about it clearly before the hot takes take over. Plus, we tackle the very real challenge of Rules Bleed (that maddening moment when your brain defaults to the old rules mid-game) and share practical tips for making a clean transition into a new edition.</p> <p>The edition may be ending, but the episode is just getting started!</p> <p><strong>Time Stamps:</strong></p> <ul> <li>0:00:00 – Show Intro, Elite Choice, Hobby Progress, and Games Played</li> <li>0:21:40 – Crossing the Edition Rubicon: Part 1</li> <li>1:06:20 – Crossing the Edition Rubicon: Part 2</li> <li>1:44:35 – Final Discussion and Show Closing</li> </ul> <p><strong>Relevant Links:</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.patreon.com/theics">The Independent Characters Patreon</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.tablewar.com/">Tablewar!</a> – SPONSOR</li> <li><a href="https://herrickgames.com/">Herrick Games & Hobbies</a> – SPONSOR</li> <li><a href="https://www.adepticon.org/">Adepticon</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.games-workshop.com/">Games Workshop</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.blacklibrary.com/">The Black Library</a></li> </ul>

Episode 276 - Adepticon 2026 Review
<p>What happens when The Independent Characters descend on Milwaukee for four straight days of Warhammer 40,000, other tabletop gaming, and everything Adepticon has to offer? In this episode, Carl, Adan, and Josh bring you their full review of Adepticon 2026, the games they played, the people they met, and the moments that made the trip worth it all.</p> <p>But this year, the crew wasn't just attending. They were running the show! Well... specifically the Warhammer 40,000 Flex event for the second year in a row. This is quickly becoming one of the convention's most dynamic, welcoming, and inclusive Warhammer 40k events, across all four days. What goes right, what goes sideways, and what keeps players coming back year after year?</p> <p>From the convention floor to the event organizer's perspective, we share the experiences, the highlights, and the hard-won lessons from one of the best weeks the hobby has to offer. Whether you've been to Adepticon or it's been on your bucket list, this episode will make you feel like you were right there with us.</p> <p><strong style="font-size: small;">Time Stamps:</strong></p> <ul> <li><span style="font-size: small;">0:00:00 - Show Intro, Elite Choice</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;">0:12:00 - Hobby Progress, and Games Played and Adepticon Review Part 1</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;">1:26:15 - Games Played and Adepticon Review Part 2</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;">2:35:15 - Final Discussion and Show Closing</span></li> </ul> <p><strong style="font-size: small;">Relevant Links:</strong></p> <ul> <li><span style="font-size: small;"><a href= "https://www.patreon.com/theics">The Independent Characters Patreon</a></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;"><a href= "http://www.tablewar.com/">Tablewar!</a> - SPONSOR</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;"><a href= "https://herrickgames.com/">Herrick Games & Hobbies</a> - SPONSOR</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;"><a href= "https://www.goonhammer.com">Goonhammer Media Network</a></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;"><a href= "https://www.adepticon.org">Adepticon</a></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;"><a href= "http://www.games-workshop.com">Games Workshop</a></span></li> <li><span style="font-size: small;"><a href= "http://www.blacklibrary.com">The Black Library</a></span></li> </ul>
