Episode 230 of The Independent Characters has us return for an update to our Show of Force for the new Space Marines and Tyranid Codexes! Be warned that Show of Force episodes tend to be damaging to people's wallets.
We have two great guests join us as well to talk about each of the armies from a competetive perspective (which is not really our expertise!) and they do a fantastic job of educating us.
We hope you enjoy our first episode of 2024!

0:00.0 | I'm going to Welcome to the independent characters episode 2 30 the show of force update for space |
0:28.1 | Marines and Tyrinins. Watch out. Yeah so if you don't know what show of forces here at the independent character, |
0:36.6 | show force is where we do, so let's start with, when we started this program, Jeff and I, the one thing we didn't want to do was |

1:23.2 | We don't need to be one of those shows. |
1:25.9 | So then I proposed show of force to Jeff. |
1:30.1 | And Jeff said, wasn't that a Codex overview overview? And I said it's not because what we do is we look at the history of the army within |
1:40.7 | the game. Like, you know, when did it come out blah blah blah blah |

1:58.0 | A few standout units maybe models very specifically. |
2:02.0 | That we think are really cool. We talk about how it narratively it makes some |
