Did GW Fumble the Summer of Chaos Releases?
This week on 40KFanatics, Shane and Austin take a closer look at Games Workshop’s “Summer of Chaos” and ask: has the 2025 Chaos Legions release lived up to expectations? With a rollout that feels more whelming than world-breaking, they discuss whether the spotlight on Chaos in 40K has been dimmed by competing projects like the launch of Grand Cathay in The Old World and the new 3rd edition of The Horus Heresy. Is GW stretching its release schedule too thin, or is this just a slower burn for the legions of the warp?

Is Warhammer Pay to Win?
In this episode, we dig into one of the biggest questions in the Warhammer community: is 40K pay to win? We look at some recent examples — like Emperor’s Children and their beefy new battleline units, the Leagues of Votann’s wild 9th edition launch, and Grand Cathay’s power-packed debut in Warhammer: The Old World — to break down whether dropping cash equals winning games. Is it just power creep? Is it business as usual? Or is there something more going on? Check out our Discord! https://discord.com/invite/qGVFHmafqp
