“The Vanguard Tactic’s podcast as been an amazing help to me. I started playing Warhammer 40K around three years ago and this podcast has helped me a lot. Dave and Stephen are great hosts too. Any 40K fan or hobbyist would enjoy this family friendly podcast.”

“Vanguard and this podcast live by the mantra be the change you want to see. By focusing on FairPlay and positivity, within an hobby that can often have so much negativity, they are changing attitudes one mind at a time. I genuinely look forward to a new podcast drop.”

“When I first got into 40K around the end of 8th I looked for a good 40K podcast and non of them clicked. Even if I only dip my toes into a hobby I’m very competitive by nature and most of the podcasts I found were geared more towards casual players and I bounced off them. I recently got Votann as...”Read full review »

I’d be more...”Read full review »
