#49.5 – Playin’ and Slayin’ – Attitudes of Gratitude
Posted by Troy
It was the night before Thanksgiving and the guys get together to discuss the multitude of things they have been playing, building and reading. They then put a different spin on the usual “What are you thankful for?” query by looking at their 2020 gaming through four different questions we are calling the “Attitudes of Gratitude”

Horus Heresy Siege of Terra Reading Guidance Update
Posted by Troy

We are halfway through the Siege of Terra books with Saturnine. This was a good opportunity to update the Horus Heresy Reading Guidance with my thoughts on the Siege books so far. I also made a bunch of updates to other books along the way and I highlighted my “short list” of books I recommend reading before the Siege.
- Horus Rising
- False Gods
- Galaxy in Flames
- The Flight of the Eisenstein
- Legion
- A Thousand Sons
- Prospero Burns
- The First Heretic
- Know No Fear
- The Unremembered Empire
- The Master of Mankind
- Slaves to Darkness
That’s 12, if you want to stretch it to 15 I would add Betrayer, Vengeful Spirit and begrudgingly Fulrim
