Red Reward by Mitchel Scanlon Warhammer 40k Story

[@briHammer40K]

Anyone noticed an issue with the volume? I've got mine turned up full just to hear it

[@ABorderPrince]

Some others have mentioned this tbh but others say fine. Are you listening head phones speakers?

[@therealcarlxii]

Connected my phone to my car audio and also had to turn both the phone and the speakers to maximum.

[@briHammer40K]

@@ABorderPrince just listening on my phone mate but even at full volume it was still pretty quiet.not to worry tho you Brummie bastard you are still my favourite Warhammer narrator 😁😜😜😜

[@Khornecussion]

Eh I like being able to play it a little lower so I can sleep to it and turn it up higher if I'm awake to it and listening to it at the laptop or on the go. I'm not deaf so thankfully don't need it tooooo loud, but ye.

Lol sounds like the Lieutenant crapped himself as he was dying. I know it was supposed to be serious but the raspberry at the end has mel laughing. Was a great listen.

I always like it when imperial guard regiments get to describe one another. 11 mins in and i''m really enjoying it. will edit this comment once i go through the whole story. It took me awhile but this is actually related to that novel 15 Hours. No wonder the author and the setting seemed familiar. especially when the drpship arrived. Edit: that farting burrping bit at 47:40 was quite a fun event after a big battle

[@ABorderPrince]

yes a classic novel glad i found this

[@at1848]

Had to pause and rewind about 48mins in as was laughing so hard - I am so childish at heart 😂

[@ABorderPrince]

lol

[@ketchupitall]

Hey, brother. The trenches do get dark sometimes, but keep fighting the good fight. You’re doing great work.

[@ABorderPrince]

thank you

[@fisnikshaqiri6218]

Excellent narration and the story great too. However, it's sad but not surprising just how hopeless the situation is for all guardsmen. I was really surprised that Chalka was still alive after 17 years.

2:30 I had this very argument in the army -- but I reminded my ratlingish colleagues that, if we come up against a Cu-Chi-like tunnel complex, they're the ones going in with pistols and flashlights. ...hey, why hasn't that been transcribed into Grimdark? Too cruel?

[@andilucas6926]

Thankyou, this was a real treat and an excellent return to form! This one really drives home the dystopian horror of service with the Guard... TEN YEARS in theatre?! :O I can't imagine the relief cycle is remotely reasonable either - the story doesn't even hint at how many days they spend in this trench line before they get rotated into support (most likely in cellars in that ruined city) or whatever passes for 'rest' billets on this ruined world...

[@benjaminpark5460]

So back to painting and listening to some of your and other audio books. More fitting listening to 40k or such stuff when painting 40k minis after all.

@@tarektechmarine8209 while that is true the space grunt/nco, the space trucker/space blue collar worker will always be the coolest thing about 40k to me. It’s a great way to flesh out the universe, adds relatable concepts to a for alien universe and over all just be more interesting to me. I never liked space operas too much, I prefer fire fly and cowboy bebop to star wars and Star Trek.

[@sreed16]

You’re back! Great news! Have you ever played around with the various AI drawing / painting programs? It takes awhile to get used to it, I’m still messing with them. But you can make custom pictures of your own images to your stories. Type in the description of the Lieutenant and I bet you could get a pretty good idea of what he would (ish) look like for the story. They can be tricky to work with. I was making a picture of a soldier on horseback waving a flag with a bull’s head picture (or some such description), and it made a picture of a horse with a cows head, a multi-fingered cowboy wearing a helmet with a giant brim on it, and waving a distorted American flag. So, that didn’t work out. Welcome back!
