In this episode, we take you back to a time in the distant past where there were only about 6 official army books released, and everyone else had to use Ravening Hordes which came free with White Dwarf... Then along came these updated army lists for Bretonnia and Lizardmen and suddenly those armies were playable again! Remember the days when you could lose the Lady's blessing if you shot enemy knights, refused a challenge, or engaged in ungentlemanly smack talk during a battle. Also we dredge up some old White Dwarf articles and talk about who won the quiz at the Warhammer World Grand Tournament, and just how lazy one Fat Bloke can be...
