Episode 35 – The Penultimate is Mightier

In this episode of the Tactical Squad: Alex, John and Travis review the final War Pack of the Deathworld cycle, The Warp Unleashed.  This was recorded at the end of October before Worlds, but unfortunately we had some delays with production.

We are still going to record one final episode in the coming weeks looking back at the game we all love.  We’d love to hear from our listeners as well.  Send us submissions that we can read on the podcast or short audio clips that we can include in our final episode and share your favourite memories of Warhammer 40,000: Conquest.  Either way, you can reach us at thetacsquad@gmail.com

Episode 34 – The Pen is Ultimate

In this episode of the Tactical Squad: Jon and Travis talk about the Canadian National Championship, the official announcement of the end of Conquest and review the cards from the fifth War Pack of the Deathworld cycle, Against the Great Enemy.

 

Speaking of the Canadian Nationals, members of The Tactical Squad provided commentary for the livestream of Warhammer 40,000: Conquest Top 8 on vttv.live.  You can check out those matches now on YouTube or check out the results here.

  • Semi-finals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAzYI2Ywjsg
  • Finals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66SasjSzPaE

The plan for the podcast is to record two more episodes.  One will be before Worlds in November and we are planning one final farewell episode when we return from Minnesota.

As we mentioned in the episode, for our final podcast we will be sharing memories of the game we love and the podcast and we’d love to hear from our listeners as well.  Send us submissions that we can read on the podcast or short audio clips that we can include in our final episode.  Either way, you can reach us at thetacsquad@gmail.com

Episode 33 – The Truth Hurts

In this episode of the Tactical Squad: Jon, Victor and Travis review the Searching For Truth War Pack, discuss the Squad’s exclusive spoilers for upcoming Chaos cards, and talk about our plans for Canadian Nationals, happening September 9th through 11th in Toronto.

Speaking of Canadian Nationals, tickets are still available.  The Warhammer 40,000: Conquest event starts at 11am on Friday, September 9, 2016 at the Holiday Inn Yorkdale in Toronto, Canada.  All of the Fantasy Flight Games competitive games will have their Canadian Championships taking place over the weekend, so if you are also a fan of X-Wing, Android: Netrunner, Imperial Assault, A Game of Thrones LCG, Star Wars Armada or the Star Wars LCG, check out the full schedule.  The Tactical Squad will not be competing this year because we are all volunteering to make this the best Canadian Nationals event possible.

Victor and Travis will be officially launching a new venture alongside the event, offering full streaming coverage of multiple events.  This is an extension of our monthly 401 Games livestreams as we try to create a new home for live competitive FFG content online.  We’ll be bringing something from every event, including the entirety of the Conquest Top 8 on Friday evening starting at 5:30pm.  You can check out the full streaming schedule for the weekend over on our new site, VTTV.live.
