EP25 Preview! + Potential Reading Circle type of deal?
Added 2017-04-27 15:08:47 +0000 UTCAY!
Time for a preview thing! I've been going at it with EP25 and I'm feeling that it will be a fun and eventful episode all in all, a whole bunch of new characters introduced and a whole lotta hijinks unfolding, a taste of which you will get here. Sorry that it is taking time as usual, but I feel I've made good progress already so that is a nice sign.
Also, I've got two new for the 'If the Emperor had a Podcast' project!
First of all, in preparation for the 'If the Emperor had a Podcast' deal, where 40k books will be discussed in-universe by cast-members of TTS - perhaps I should start some kind of reading circle type of deal in preperation for it?
How this would work is that I will decide upon a book that needs reading inbefore a Podcast episode. I will announce what book is decided upon, and set a date upon which the book should be fully read through.
On said date, I will invite everyone over for a chat on, say, a Discord-server or perhaps somewhere else (suggestions are totally appreciated). We will then discuss the books in terms of what we thought of it, how much we learned from it, and whatever else might be of worth talking about.
The thoughts, opinions and info gathered from the book by everyone in the circle will then help shape the script during the writing-process for that particular episode, affecting the character's involved and their own thoughts on the 'historical record' they themselves have been reading in-universe. And, OF COURSE, everyone will also be credited for their aid in shaping the episode!
Secondly; I decided that it might be a good idea to include an echo of the 'Questions and Answers' videos in these 'podcasts', including a few questions asked by 'imperial citizens' directed to the Emperor himself, which he will answer towards the end of the episode. If I do so, I will be highly prioritizing questions given to me by you, my patrons, because you definitely deserve more priliveges I feel.
I will be announcing here on Patreon when I will be accepting questions for the next episode, if I decide upon going through with this idea!
So yeah, that's it. Thank you so very much for sticking around, and if you have any thoughts or suggestions, please please please do tell!
HAVE A GOOD ONE, EMPEROR BLESS! <3

I'll be honest, I was expecting the firedrakes to come out with "Sure is quiet today." "YES"

2017-05-03 19:02:50 +0000 UTCI suddenly just put some pieces together about what the Engine of Woes actually is. If I turn out to be right, wow. Brilliant planning, Alfabusa.

2017-05-02 05:02:21 +0000 UTCMalal will appear in TTS again, but unfortunately I still like to have him around as a butt for jokes.
Alfabusa
2017-05-01 19:49:54 +0000 UTCI know you are not fond of Malal :)
GUYFUN
2017-05-01 19:47:21 +0000 UTCSince our lord Malal is apparently not relevant in the actual fluff then maybe in the TTS universe *hint* *hint*
GUYFUN
2017-05-01 19:47:01 +0000 UTCWhat?
GUYFUN
2017-05-01 19:43:28 +0000 UTCI would LOVE to be in a 40k book club with you and our fine flock fans here :) Sorry it took so long to respond to this one; finals are almost done *whew*

2017-04-29 12:41:29 +0000 UTCMy only concern with the book circle idea is if you'll be able to really work it into your production schedule. If you can make time for it without taking more time away from other aspects of production, then sure, go for it. But definitely make sure you're budgeting your time well. Apologies if I'm not telling you anything you don't already know.

2017-04-29 12:09:55 +0000 UTCI do absolutely love the idea of the book circle. I'm moving through the Horusy at a very slow pace, but I am totally all over a Warhammer 40K book club.

2017-04-28 17:04:04 +0000 UTCOoooh, I really really REALLY want to say during May. But I feel I may be shooting myself in the foot if I do. BUT I WILL TRY MY HARDEST
Alfabusa
2017-04-28 13:21:30 +0000 UTCBoth the preview and this comment made me laugh quite hard. My compliments to both of you!

2017-04-28 05:17:10 +0000 UTCdidn't see a ship name in the teaser. still haven't come to a decision for that yet?
l3loodKnight
2017-04-28 00:49:34 +0000 UTClol. Kitten losing it over the Tau never gets old.
2017-04-27 23:50:34 +0000 UTCHilarious and rad as always
2017-04-27 22:15:20 +0000 UTCso bloody brilliant. MOAR NOW!

2017-04-27 19:02:03 +0000 UTCKitten and Magnus are basically playing a game of ping pong, except the ball is made of idioicy and the paddles are manifestions of their poor decision making processes.

2017-04-27 16:53:15 +0000 UTCI always wanted to ask the elderly skeleton on the golden shitter a question or two. That said, any ETA on the new TTS? I know there's a lot of factors and numbers and other shit my brain doesn't like thinking about that makes an 'estimate' hard to grasp, but if you had to ballpark it without USING THAT FUCKING BRAIN OF YOURS, that'd be good too. Otherwise I'll just assume Soon™ and patiently wait it out.

2017-04-27 16:13:49 +0000 UTCI don't even know, Fresh added it to the script while proof-reading.
Alfabusa
2017-04-27 15:54:53 +0000 UTCYOU HAVE CHAPLAIN DIOMEDES
Alfabusa
2017-04-27 15:54:37 +0000 UTCHis genetic code was probably partially distilled from a character in a Guy Ritchie film.
Dread Pirate Steve
2017-04-27 15:54:24 +0000 UTCAlso, what is a scrowder?
Cinder
2017-04-27 15:53:49 +0000 UTCThis day gets better and better. First the return of Diomedes (in glorious Chaplain flavor) and now a nice preview of things to come.
Cinder
2017-04-27 15:51:44 +0000 UTCalso, why the fuck does a tube-born companion made in mount everest devolve into cockney when pissed off? did his genetic heritage come from london stock or something?
Taylor Tilbury
2017-04-27 15:46:44 +0000 UTCfucking glorious alfa, your work always makes me smile.
Taylor Tilbury
2017-04-27 15:43:14 +0000 UTCI probably won't have a whooole lot of questions answered, so I'd probably only go with one question per person per episode, but in future episodes, you will get a second chance!
Alfabusa
2017-04-27 15:35:33 +0000 UTCI loved every second of this, I shall burst at the seams with laughter when this comes out. And we need more angry thunderpsycher, that glorious
