So excited for this to be getting an audio re-release. My favourite Space Marine chapter the Blood Drinkers in action! If you’re wanting and old school Terminators vs Genestealers in the corridors of a Space Hulk story then Death of Integrity by @guyhaley.bsky.social is the one!

I did indeed make them up for the reason Gav gives. Apart from the twin hull, very much inspired by the blackstar model, I kept the details deliberately vague.

Heh, I also painted my titans as Legio Solaris. I don’t have any other Tigris details, as it’s not so much me selecting the bits of my imaginings to write down, but rather providing just enough detail to fire yours up.

The book is here, and I'm done with social stuff of weekend, so, Archmagos by @guyhaley.bsky.social is a go 😁

Naturally, live reaction, spoilers and opinions will be abound. So if it's not something you want to see - mute, block, etc you know the drillπŸ˜‰

Finally finished the knight part of my House Vyronii HH army. Just have 20 Solar Auxilia to paint, and I’ll have a full 2000 points.

When I find contradictions like this, which are inevitable, given the setting's huge scope and the number of creators, it's my impulse to make BOTH true, which led to the Cawl series, and Cawl being a gestalt of merged personalities.

As an aside, GW aren't overly dictatorial about what we write. It was actually my idea, having been introduced to Cawl while writing Dark Imperium, to feature him the distant past as a young man. Interestingly, someone else, simultaneously, wrote about him being old in that period of 40k's setting.

I often try to use science to do this, but a lot of the time my research isn't profound, I do a bit of reading or simply apply logic to the situation. Logic led me to the Ultramaran quarantine protocols, so that's a win for me!

I also find it fascinating to speculate how this stuff would actually work in real life, and enjoy exploring it without breaking the rules of the universe.

Hey, thanks for that. That's really cool to hear that I got it right. It's very important for me as a writer that all the magic space stuff has a firm, believable background, because then it makes it easier to buy into.

YouTube video by Warhammer Conference Warhammer’s Plague Narratives from the Perspective of an Epidemiologist – Warhammer Conference 2025

This one is me, talking about plague narratives in 40K, and how much they make sense from an epidemiological perspective.

TLDR: If it's @guyhaley.bsky.social odds are it's pretty good!

I finally got the base on knight #2 done, and I’ve got a bit further with #3.

So I have my knights well on the way. They will be my third Horus Heresy Army. I worked out with the four armigers, three questoris and twenty Solar Auxilia I have, I've got exactly 2000 points. I'm going to paint that, then I'd like to expand it to 3000. A full banner of 5 Questoris is tempting.
