If there’s one thing that Warhammer 40,000 is loaded with, it’s unique characters who are often pivotal to the story. But how have those characters been reflected on the tabletop? In this episode, inspired by the new Warhammer 40,000 Character Encyclopedia, we dive into all things character-related! In part one, we look back at the history for rules for characters, especially special named characters from Rogue Trader through 10th Edition. Then, in part two, we look into the Encyclopedia and each pick five of our favorite characters. Come join us as we pick through 38 years of rules, discover some interesting bits of lore, and maybe even learn a new word or two!

Thank you to DK Books for sending us a copy of the Character Encyclopedia for review!
