Welcome back to Episode 64 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. Grotmas detachments galore and a full MFM/Balance Dataslate update - what a time to be a competitive 40K player! With loads of information to process/analyse, we've spent the last few days gathering our thoughts on every faction to be able to update our Fireside 40K Tier List. We've focussed on high level singles play as our benchmark and made an active effort to split up armies into different tiers (e.g. A & B tier could be in the A tier together, but we've split them up and moved our B tier armies into C tier) representing their relative power to each other rather than a particular WR% band or any other statistical metric. FINAL TIER LIST: https://imgur.com/a/dSEEgR9 Thank you so much to all the members who've joined both the CATACHAN level and are enjoying our members-only detailed content on factions / competitive strategy, and the PHOENIX LORD level who've been discussing ideas and asking questions on the discord.

Welcome back to Episode 62 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. A huge shoutout to Aaron for letting us know about an initiative with the American Cancer Society called the 'Battle Against Breast Cancer' which is bringing together 25+ tournaments in the USA with live streaming from Tactical Tortoise, Wargames Live, Warpcharged Gaming and Tabletop Live. The primary way of raising money is a raffle - for more information and to buy raffle tickets, check out www.noveopenfoundation.org We're back from LGT, and couldn't be happier with a Team Ignite finals between Liam VSL (CSM) and Brian Seipp (Orks), with Liam managing to take the win to give him back-to-back LGT wins (insane!).

Welcome back to Episode 61 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. Another year flies by and LGT is back! Dave, Vik and a bunch of Team Ignite are attending this year. To mix things up this episode, we thought we'd try to do a slightly unusual tier list. TO CLARIFY BEFORE THE INTERNET IMPLODES, the tier list we've done here is not ranking the strongest armies in the game, so if you've skipped through to the end and are about to shoot us an angry comment, read our method below. This tier list is going to compare the prevalence of factions at the LGT (the LGT Meta) to whether we think the overall player base (not just the top tier, but the entire spectrum of player skills/expectations) of that faction will overperform or underperform (on UKTC terrain). This was a super interesting discussion and we'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments! Grab a drink, sit back, relax and enjoy the episode. See you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik

Welcome back to Episode 60 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. The World Team Championships (WTC) are over! New Zealand absolutely smashed it, pushing into the top 10, winning best sportsmanship and Dave coming out as the Rank No. 1 for individual rankings with his innovative Thousand Sons list. Team England had a worse time, taking some heavy losses across the event pushing them down to 7th place in the rankings.

Welcome back to Episode 59 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We've heard lots of talk in the community that because WTC is a team event it isn't relevant for the singles 40K meta, and we're here to prove that theory wrong! The WTC lists are a culmination of months of preparation from some of the best players from across the world. We run through the most represented factions at the event, how they sit in the meta and an example of a WTC list for each faction that you can consider for your next singles event.

This week on the Expert Voices podcast, Randy Wootton, CEO of Maxio, speaks with Brian Bell, Managing Partner of Team Ignite Ventures, about his journey from finance to product management to becoming an investor. Brian highlights how his eclectic background has shaped his investment philosophy. Randy and Brian discuss the importance of customer validation, the impact of AI in the advertising industry, and the patterns of success and failure in early-stage startups. They also explore the trends in fintech and the office of the CFO, including the unbundling and bundling of services and how emerging AI technologies are forging new frontiers for startups and conglomerates alike.Quotes"A lot of investing is pattern recognition. It's just heuristics. It's at bat. It's kind of like a golf swing or a basketball shot, figuring out what startups to work with and investing in them to help them grow.” -Brian Bell [19:13]“I think that idea of going through those stages of getting product market fit, and then the stage that I'm most interested in is that expansion, growth, and then you start to move into the scale. So how do you start to take advantage of the foundation? You have to get to some level of scale.” -Randy Wootton [30:26]Expert Takeaways The transition from traditional careers to emerging tech-focused roles can lead to valuable, diverse experiences that shape successful investment strategies.Understanding customer needs and validating product-market fit is crucial for startups and can significantly influence investment decisions.AI is not only transforming existing industries but is also enabling the creation of novel business models and company structures.The unbundling and re-bundling of services, particularly in fintech, are pivotal trends shaping the landscape and presenting new investment opportunities.The impact of AI on future employment and corporate structures could lead to companies operating with minimal human staff, altering traditional business models.Timestamps[01:20] Brian's journey from finance to product management [04:16] The impact of AI in the first generation at Rocket Fuel [05:44] Lessons learned from Rocket Fuel and investment strategy[07:08] Importance of customer validation and empathy in product development [08:57] The evolution of AI and its impact on industries[14:45] Amazon and Microsoft Culture[19:55] Venture capital and starting Team Ignite [21:39] Pattern recognition involved in investing [23:07] Strategy for investing in startups [23:40] Six questions to ask startups [34:18] Evolution of the office of CFO and the unbundling happening [38:43] AI revolutionizing core capabilities and becoming a central focus [42:46] The singularity and the unimaginable future with advanced AILinksMAXIOUpcoming EventsMaxio Institute Report
*Apologies, new software, bad audio quality* Welcome back to Episode 45 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We thought we'd mix it up this time and go back to our roots with a podcast audio episode where we'll be doing a tournament recap of the Northampton GT from this past weekend. Vik went with a hyper-MSU post-dataslate version of Aeldari and Dave continues to innovate & refine his Astra Militarum. Listen in to see how we got on and our take-aways from the event! We created quite a storm in our Post-Dataslate Tier List (check out episode 44 - the previous one!) by putting Astra Militarum right up there in the top tier. It's been a journey following the internet's response to that one and we put out a little rant in this episode about the peculiar way the 40K community responds to these kinds of things and whether we think anything has changed with our opinion on the tier list. Grab a drink, sit back, relax and enjoy the episode! Dave & Vik

The first Dataslate of 2024 has dropped and has exceeded our expectations with how comprehensive the changes are. This episode we go through the key changes for the previously strongest/weakest armies in the meta as well as the armies that we personally play (Vik= Sisters + GK + Drukhari + CSM + Aeldari, Dave= Necrons + Guard + Daemons + Aeldari). We also discuss where we think the overall meta may end up and which armies we think will be dominant in this quarter. As always, enjoy and feel free to leave a question or feedback in the comments!

Sister Act 40k continues our exciting new series post-dataslate where we invite on ever more x-0 Canonesses to talk about their lists, what unique takes they have on the faction, and how they thrashed their foes on a relentless march to victory. For this episode we have managed to land the absolutely extraordinary Vik Vijay, of the Fireside 40k podcast, WTC Team England, and Team Ignite. Enjoy this wonderful episode where we talk to Vik about his recent 5-0 run at the Coventry 2 day major where he took first place with the sororitas. Once you finish the episode, best of luck rooting through those bitz boxes for those crossbows you never assembled!
Welcome back to Episode 41 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. It's been a while but Vik is back to catch-up with Dave on the latest 40K super majors we've attended (Coventry and Leicester) and how we got on. We focus on our main take aways from these tournaments and the lessons we continue to learn on how to be better competitive 40K players. With the recent release of Necrons (check out Dave's review at https://youtu.be/uNiE6hZbSB0?si=8H8530KGoAAU6xsE) and Ad Mech, we discuss where we think they sit in the meta and their relative power levels. We also chat about the things we expect to see in the balance dataslate and where we predict the meta might end up. As always, enjoy and feel free to leave a question or feedback in the comments! Also, if you're listening to this on a podcast platform, we'd recommend subscribing to the YouTube channel as we play to do a lot more live content on there in 2024! Dave & Vik

Welcome back to Episode 38 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. It's been a bit quiet on the 40K scene as we close in on the Warhammer World Championship in Atlanta next weekend - with Team Ignite sending almost the entire team across, we catch up on what we've been practicing since LGT and where are minds are at regarding the current meta. Dave, Chris Radford and Boris Michev took down a 4-man team event in Cardiff, we do a recap of the event and discuss why we think team events have had such a surge in popularity. Vik is bringing the Adepta Sororitas to the Cardiff Super-Major and discusses the thought process behind his list design and why he thinks Sisters are secretly one of the best factions in the game! As always, enjoy and feel free to leave a question or feedback in the comments! Dave & Vik
Welcome back to Episode 37 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We've got special guest Liam VSL of Team Ignite with us for this episode who, this past weekend, became the 2023 LGT Champion. We could not be more happy for his success as we've long held the opinion that Liam VSL is one of the most technically gifted / talented players in the world. He runs through the Chaos Space Marine list he brought to the event and the run that led to his name being engraved on the LGT Trophy. LGT was a huge event for Team Ignite with all 8 of our players participating in some part of the event and going 4-1 (our newest member, Majson of WTC winning Team Poland, playing in the invitationals and judging the main event). Chris Radford took CSM through to 6-0 before losing in the shadow round to finish in 9th Place, and Vik took Aeldari through to the Quarter-Finals losing to Liam VSL, finishing in 5th Place. Dave and Vik also do a quick run-through of their run and thoughts on their Astra Militarum / Aeldari lists respectively. As always, enjoy and feel free to leave a question or feedback in the comments! Dave, Vik & Liam
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 36 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We've had our first balance dataslate of 10th Edition which has brought a whole host of game-wide rules changes and impactful points changes across the entire range of armies. We've taken the past few weeks to practice and gather our thoughts on where we think things will settle on the meta. With LGT this weekend, we think this is the perfect time to analyse our practice data and see how it compares to the faction representation at LGT. Vik's back on Aeldari for LGT and Dave's on his favourite Astra Militarum with lots of innovation, we go through our lists and the decision points of why we made the choices we did. The meta is at an incredibly interesting point currently with lots of rock-paper-scissors matchups so keep your eyes peeled for some post-LGT analysis next week where we see what trends appear and what factions rise to the top of the meta. Enjoy and as always please feel free to leave us a comment if you have any feedback or questions we can help with! Dave & Vik
In this episode we host David Gaylard from Team Ignite and Fireside podcast to discuss the 'no-nos' and 'don'ts' in preparation for and while at an event. David is a seasoned player who has enjoyed both the sweet taste of victory as well as the bitter taste of the trophy being stolen from him and we believe he is perfect to talk about this particular TOP 7.
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 35 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. There's little argument to be had that the singles meta isn't in the best spot at the moment , but there's hope in the form of a Balance Dataslate in September! We've got the talented Brian Seipp of Team Ignite on as a guest today to discuss our thoughts on the meta as it stands and potential solutions that might work to correct factions at the top + bottom of the power rankings. As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
CROWDFUNDING - Liam VSL, a member of Team Ignite, Team Belgium and one of the best players in the world is currently crowd funding in order to be able to attend the World Championships in Atlanta (he's a student currently and wouldn't be able to attend otherwise).

The World Team Championships (WTC) were last weekend with Dave and I attending for the first time with Team New Zealand and Team England respectively. We both agree this was absolutely the best tournament we've ever attended - the challenge, the atmosphere, the sense of community, all completely unmatchable. We discuss our expectations, goals, results and give a run down for each round including some more details on our games (Vik = Thousand Sons, Dave = Deathwatch). As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 33 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. With the secrecy of WTC list submission behind us and everything in the open now, we're finally able to share some more of the details of what we've been up to over the past month. We're both attending our first WTC (World Team Championship) this year, Vik with Team England and Dave with Team New Zealand. In this episode we take a deep dive into the preparation phase for an event of this magnitude and contrast the differences/similarities between preparing for a singles vs team event. We discuss the meta, our army/faction choices as well as our goals/expectations for the event! As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
[Apologies in advance for the high rant levels in this one - we try our best to stay balanced, but it does get a little heated!] Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 28 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. 10th Edition has landed with indexes for the factions, points cost and the core rules all out. Change and particularly development is vital for the game, something we can see with the beautifully designed mission format (both primary and secondary) that we praised at length in the previous episode. However, with such a wide scale change to the core rules and army rules, there was bound to be some balancing issues. We've both gotten in a bunch of practice games, had discussions with a wide range of players and Dave's taken the effort of listing the potential issues that have been raised as well as explaining the reasoning behind each one in detail. We then work out some potential solutions and options that GW might consider to solving these issues. This one is going to be a somewhat controversial topic, and we definitely understand there's a lot more to learn about the edition over the coming months - we would love to hear your opinions and comments on this one so please leave one if you can! As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 27 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We open up this episode with a quick chat/discussion on our thoughts regarding the decision of the Bugeater GT to pre-emptively ban Aeldari at their 10th Edition tournament (we're a little more positive than the general community opinion). 10th Edition rules are coming out at an incredible rate and one of the areas that has been refined/changed the most is secondary mission scoring. As one of the key defining factors that impact the way we play competitively, Dave and I have done an analysis on all 16 of the Secondary Missions to come up with a series of tactical criteria for how we play/list build to them and how they interact with each other. We also discuss the pros and cons of choosing a FIXED vs TACTICAL secondary mission scoring path and what we think is likely to work better in 10th Edition! As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 25 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. This past weekend saw Team Ignite (5 Players= Vik, Dave, Brian Seipp, Jokull Johannsson & Boris Michev) attend the huge Birmingham Teams Tournament (320 Players, 64x 5 Person Teams). We put the preparation that was discussed in episode 23 into practice and managed to win the entire event including a win against Team England in the finals. In this episode we dive into a more detailed look into our pairings philosophy and preparation as well as a run-through of each of the 6 rounds we played. Thank you to all of the teams we played for an awesome set of games throughout the event - this was one of the best events we have ever attended and hopefully teams continues to grow in the competitive scene (as it is definitely one of, if not the most, engaging/fun ways to play the game). As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 24 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We've got a back-to-backer for you this week. Whilst we've primarily been focussing on 9th edition, we have been keeping a little eye on the 10th edition previews and the rules leak. Tune in to listen to our early takes and speculations (and please keep in mind we don't have the full picture yet, so our early takes may be way off the mark come full release next month!).

Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 23 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. This episode focuses on the upcoming huge 300+ person Birmingham GT, a 5-man Team Tournament hosted by the UKTC. This event uses a fixed terrain format with the balanced UKTC layouts and mission order, resulting in a more singles-type meta. This is our first outing as Team Ignite to a team event and we've brought a strong 5-man team with the aim to do our best at this one! Tune in to hear about the lists that we're bringing as well as discussing some of the top teams in attendance, including the mighty Team England (who win every one of these events!). As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 21 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. This weeks episode focuses on the 360-person Warhammer Fest Super-Major last weekend, which saw 5/6 of Team Ignite attending, with 3 of our players (Chris Radford, Brian Seipp and Dave) making it into the top 16 cut for day 3 of the event. As the first Games Workshop Open Terrain event to take place in the UK, we spend the first section of the episode discussing our thoughts on the terrain and event as a whole, as well as compare it against the UKTC format that we're used to. We then focus on Dave's incredible run through the event, going 8-0 with his innovative Astra Militarum list, before taking a narrow defeat in the finals to finish in 2nd place! (To the wonderful Innes Wilson of StatCheck - congrats!) As always, enjoy, let us know what you think and see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 20 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We finally got the last Dataslate of 9th Edition! We dedicate the majority of this episode on discussing the impact on the meta from the various changes in the dataslate and go through why we think it didn't do quite enough to really mix things up (How did Desolation marines survive?!). We also do a dive into our games at the London Open, a UKTC Major from last weekend as well as run through our initial thoughts about the massive Warhammer Fest event coming up at the end of the month. As always, enjoy, let us know what you think an see you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 19 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. With no Dataslate just yet (though hopefully due shortly after this episode releases!), our lists are submitted for the London Open - a 150-person Major event hosted by the UKTC. Dave's bringing his Astra Militarum and Vik his Aeldari. We run through our lists and how we've adapted to the Desolation marines that have created quite the hostile meta for both of our factions. We also go through the details on some of the strongest lists (Dark Angels, Iron Hands, Guard & Daemons) in attendance. This event has a large proportion of the best players in the UK creating a shark tank where we should expect lots of spicy pairings throughout the weekend. As always, please let us know if you have any questions or feedback and it would be hugely helpful if you leave us a comment, like or review on any of the streaming platforms you use to listen to Fireside 40K! See you by the Fireside, Dave & Vik
Hey All, Welcome back to Episode 18 of the Fireside 40K podcast hosted by Vik Vijay & David Gaylard of Team Ignite. We're joined this episode by our good friend and founding member of Team Ignite, Brian Siepp, to discuss his incredible run to Top 4 at the Manchester Super-Major with Iron Hands (including the newly-infamous Desolation Marines). We go through what makes the Desolation Marines so strong and the tactics Brian used to get through his first 5 rounds before the cut with 497/500 battle points! Brian was also joined by Vik this weekend in Manchester, with Vik managing to pull out an undefeated run of 5-0 at the event with his innovative Aeldari list. We touch in detail about some thoughts on his list design as well as a more in-depth look into how he managed his Round 5 game against an optimised Dark Angels list with 20 Terminators and 10 Desolation Marines. With the balance dataslate hopefully just around the corner, we touch on some of the things we'd like to see included and we'll be releasing another episode with our initial reactions as soon as it does drop!

This episode focuses on his 7-0 winning run at the event with Astra Militarum. We'll be dissecting his list design philosophy as well as the tactics he used in each of his games, including a detailed run through of his epic final game against Mani Cheema's Dark Angels. We'll also be touching on the ethos behind the new team that we've started - Team Ignite, and our plans going forward for the season! Enjoy the episode and as always let us know what you think!

GLOW@TU/e was live on Radio 4 Brainport. Lotte Sap Noortje van Velzen, Elke den Ouden are guests in a live radio program, presented by Jean-Paul Linnartz. Noortje visits installations on the university campus. She interviews Milou Weerts of Hypar Collective and Tom Kafoe at the Cycle of Light and of course her Team Ignite. Lotte's podcasts are daily on-air at 7:30 PM, but today she gives a live update on visitor reactions.

A light beams that comes to meet you and then invites you to dance. To some extent it is an extension of Philips Ross' Gibson installation on the Stadhuisplein, but this time, Team Ignite goes much further. The light beam is really interactive and predictive it anticipates your moves and at the same time leads you into a dance. Is it the rotation of the light? Is it the light-footed motion of the swirling beam? What intrigued our reporter Jean-Paul Linnartz most is that there is in fact a fundamental mathematical concept behind it, one that is notoriously hard to explain to students. It is known as a Kalman filter. Boring or hard to grasp in math classes, but at GLOW it is taken a little “out of control” with a setting that are suddenly is inviting to dance. Jean-Paul Linnartz interviewed Tim de Jong during a review of the installation. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/podcasts-4-brainport/message
