By Blade and Bolter Pt. 8 - Additions, Amendments and Questions
May 801:57:49Tap to summarize*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*In this episode, we turn our focus to the War-Forge, the hidden industrial heart of the Crimson Armada, and the force that sustains its endless wars. We break down what the Forge is, how it functions, and the role it plays in shaping not just weapons, but the doctrines and limitations of every faction it supplies. From there, we introduce a series of amendments, refining key ideas, clarifying its relationships, and tightening how it fits within the wider structure of the Armada. We then move into a Q&A segment, tackling core questions about its purpose, control, and long-term intent, exploring what the War-Forge truly wants, if anything at all. Finally, we close the episode with a set of short narrative pieces, bringing the Forge to life through moments of calculated brutality, cold experimentation, and the relentless logic of war without end.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k
Transcribe →(video) By Blade and Bolter Pt. 7 - Knight House Belli Obligatus
May 401:21:04Tap to summarize*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*House Belli Obligatus, the War Bound, are not a noble lineage but a weapon system given form, forged in the shadow of a hidden War-Forge and unleashed upon the galaxy as instruments of calculated annihilation. Bound to a creed of Destruction and Domination, their Knights hunt the largest and most powerful engines of war, reducing Titans and bastions alike in acts of total, witnessed obliteration. Fighting alongside the Crimson Armada from the depths of the Black Hold, they have waged a ten-thousand-year campaign known as the Machina Crucible, where every kill is recorded, every failure erased, and every Engine exists for a single purpose, to prove its worth through absolute destruction.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k

Transcribe →(Video) By Blade and Bolter Pt. 6 - The Brass Legion
May 101:02:35Tap to summarize*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*The Brass Legion is not a force of wild berserkers, but a grinding wall of discipline in service to Khorne, an army where individuality is erased and war is waged as an unbroken, methodical advance. In this episode, we break down how this Traitor Guard regiment turns faith into function, from the Endless Tally that defines their culture to the rigid doctrine that keeps them fighting long past the point where other armies would collapse. We explore their origins within the Crimson Armada, their uneasy relationship with the War-Forge, and what happens when the Line finally breaks, because when it does, the result is just as terrifying as any chainaxe charge.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k

Transcribe →(Video) By Blade and Bolter Pt. 5 - The Crimson Armada
Apr 2701:14:03Tap to summarize*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*In this episode, we break down the Crimson Armada, a Chaos warfleet that operates less like a traditional navy and more like a fully self-sustaining war empire. Born from the fires of the Great Crusade and reforged in the Horus Heresy, this fleet has evolved into a roaming engine of conquest, built on discipline, brutal hierarchy, and unwavering devotion to Khorne. We explore how its unique doctrine prioritizes cohesion and planetary assault over void supremacy, and how its integrated structure, Astartes, mortal armies, and Dark Mechanicum industry, allows it to wage continuous war across entire systems. If you’re into large-scale warfare, fleet design, and what makes a Chaos force actually function long-term, this one dives deep into how the Crimson Armada holds together.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k

Transcribe →(Video) By Blade and Bolter Pt. 4 - KoS: Armoury, Infrastructure and Assessment
Apr 2401:23:11Tap to summarize*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*Here we examine the structure of the Knights of Slaughter, from their rigid hierarchy of ranks to the hidden fractures beneath it. We explore how they govern their fleets and domains, how authority is maintained through strength and ritual, and how new warriors are brought into their ranks. From proven aspirants to broken remnants reforged through war, recruitment is as much a trial of will as it is of flesh. This episode reveals how the warband sustains itself across millennia—through control, selection, and the constant testing of those who would call themselves Knights.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40kPatterns

Apr 2401:21:59Tap to summarize*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*In this episode, we turn to the material power of the Knights of Slaughter, examining the weapons, armour, and war engines that sustain their campaigns. From relic blades and chain-wrought wargear to ancient battle tanks maintained as sacred instruments, every tool of war is treated as an extension of their creed. We also explore the infrastructure that supports them—their fleets, forge decks, and ritual spaces—and how warriors and wargear alike are judged, maintained, and, when necessary, cast aside. For the Knights, strength is not assumed—it is assessed, proven, and reforged in every campaign.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40kPatterns
