Hi

Now before I begin I would like to say I searched and couldn't find anything like this, and also I wasn't sure where to put this but I apologize if I put it in the wrong place.

I have recently discovered the magic of podcasts. I already have Imperial vox cast, The independent characters, Life after the cover save, The overlords, The battle zone, 40k Radio and 40k Warcasting. Now are there any others that anyone would recommend for a guy who plays 40k and has dabbled in fantasy and lord of the rings?

Thanking you in advance
Waaagh!

Dice Like Thunder.

I listen to most of what you listen to and I would add:

By far the best 40k Podcast out there is the 11th Company.

A very good podcast that covers all GW games is Worlds End Radio

Also check out 40k Basement.

Gamer's Lounge has really interesting discussions, and also great interveiws...

Well blow me! I didn't even know there was a market for 40K podcasts! You live and learn.

Worlds End Radio.

Hands down a fantastic podcast. Covers 40k/Fantasy/LoTR. They have awesome Australian accents, and you feel like you're just chilling with your buddies when you listen. Not to mention, they have sources inside GW (one used to be a GW maanger) and actually dig up some good information on upcoming releases.

Just listened to an episode of this, not impressed. These guys really aren't radio people, they lack any real charisma or entertaining personalities.. The one guy's voice is incredibly boring, the girl is too and never says anything. Listening to them go over the Eldar codex, unit by unit and their rules and stuff, they get like 50% of the rules blatantly wrong and mixed up.

As eNvY says Worlds End Radio is pure win, best GW podcast out there.
Both hosts are funny and charismatic with aforementioned awesome accents, also quite informative with contests.
YAY! worlds end radio!

40kbasement has evidently discontinued their podcast for the forsee-able future. It might re-start at some point, but "shakes 8-ball" - Future is Hazy.

-P

I'll throw a vote in for 11th Company. Yes one of the guys (Pat I think) has such a monotone voice he'll put you to sleep but the content overall is very nice in terms of 40k strategy discussion. There's one old geezer on that show that always seems to breath heavily into the mic though which pisses me off to no end when listening, sometimes I have to skip ahead but I put up with all of it since their discussions on strategies are very interesting. Some people might not agree with what they say but it gives a different perspective on the way the game is played.

Another vote for World's End. Listened to them for awhile and the two hosts are entertaining. They cover all GW gaming systems including LOTR and Bloodbowl so they're kind of like a White Dwarf in that they provide coverage on a variety of systems (could be a good or bad thing)...only difference is it doesn't set you back 10 bucks an episode

Can't say I'd recommend podhammer though. Of the few episodes I've listened to, it's just the host ranting about random things. The content I find lacking and presentation is sub par compared to many other podcasts out there.

A lot of podcasts are local gamer groups hanging out and shooting the bull, if you are into that I could recommend about 10 podcasts for you. The problem with them is that there is not much 40k, just them busting each others balls, and what 40k there is is not really knowledgeable or very good.

I would love to hear a 40k podcast that is actually about 40k, and have some strategy and tactics talk, and right now 11th company is the closest. Some of their stuff is not that great (they had a guy talk about Space Marine psychic powers without owning the codex, just by using army builder) but for the most part they interview interesting people, and the show is put together well.

I'll give them another listen, maybe they just don't know Eldar that well and even experienced tournament players don't know every codex. But if you're going to do a podcast on a Codex, READ IT!

Just want to chip in and say I am a big podcast listener in general, on a variety of topics including GW games.

World's End Radio is very good, I add my voice to that chorus.

In counterpoint to someone earlier, I would like to say that Podhammer is not only my favorite GW podcast (as a Fantasy player) it is also one of my favorite podcasts period. Jeff (the main host) and his cadre of misfits are HYSTERICAL. I have cracked up more at that show than at many podcasts that are focused on comedy. And to top it off, MOST of the time there's actually at least 2/3 of the show dedicated to good, Tournament-tested, tried and true Warhammer information.

However, you must have the right kind of personality to enjoy Podhammer. They are extremely foul-mouthed and often go off on 15-20 minute rants on non-GW topics which are bound to offend the more conservative listeners. Personally its what I love about the show- as I said, it cracks me up sitting at work so I get all kinds of strange looks. But you have to like that sort of thing going in-if you don't, then it's probably not for you.

"Why would you go to any strip club, Jeffrey? Because there's chicks with their cans out. BEEEECAUSE there are chicks with their cans out!"
