381: The 2024 Final Ultimate Sexy Delightful Respectful Orange Faction Tier List
This month is getting busier and busier. We were in Philadelphia for PAX Unplugged and that seemed like a perfect opportunity to have some guests on and hold the annual Faction Tier List episode. Rwise and Teddysjamforyou both joined us in Matt's dirty hotel room, so get prepared for THAT kind of energy. We also didn't strictly do a Tier List this year, but instead decided to hold a Faction Draft and subsequent Tournament to determine not only the best Faction but the best Faction Drafter!

Also say hi to us at PAX this weekend if you're going. This week the boys sit down to talk through what players should think about when using the milty draft SCPT tournament tool and they even spend some time doing a mock draft where they roleplay as various exciting characters like Dinky and Horse.

379: Super Sardakk N'orr Guide (THE FINAL SUPER GUIDE)
With this episode Matt and Hunter have completed a two year cycle of covering every single faction in TI to the deepest of our ability. It's been a long journey and we didn't get everything perfect (give us one more go around!) but we did pack a lot of very good detail into all of these guides. They should stand as a great resource until the oncoming codex four wipes out their relevancy! For this final guide we dive into the bug boys of Sardakk N'orr, a faction that is not great but is very fun and has very interesting abilities. Bug boys love mom!
