Summary
What do you enjoy most about The Maelstrom? Let us know on Discord at https://discord.gg/2dX5JqfNQ6 – Jonny is here for Joshy's story time, with the recent 40k supplement 'Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant' being the focus. Recapping the 80-something page lore primer on the setting, this episode goes over the 'what, where, and who' of this nightmarish 'underworld' of the Warhammer 40,000 setting. We cover the renegade Red Corsairs of Huron Blackheart, the Aeldari Corsairs of Eldritch Raider Prince Yriel, and stop to smell the desecrated roses of Night Lords and others along the way. – TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Introduction to The Maelstrom 04:55 Mournhollow, the Tyrant's Crown, and other regions of the Maelstrom 25:00 heretical and piratical denizens of the Maelstrom 38:24 Huron Blackheart's RED CORSAIRS 57:32 Aeldari Corsairs: the free spirits of their race 01:11:39 Lore excerpts from across the Maelstrom 01:22:28 Outro – Website/links: https://ttpfieldmanual.captivate.fm TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and tabletop gaming fans from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies . We use this podcast as a platform to share our ramblings about the hobby (though we cannot shut up about Warhammer). By day, Joshy is a therapist; by night, an RPG aficionado raised on Final Fantasy and years of crafting his own Dungeons & Dragons worlds. Jonny, a technician, spends his downtime conquering more video games than Joshy can keep track of. Our occasional guest Zakky has a passion for buying things he then has to build. Thanks for listening!
