Da Red Gobbo Collection - A Grot Revolution! | 40k BOOK CLUB

*BONUS CONTENT!* Joshy and Jonny discuss for Book Club, "Da Red Gobbo Collection", an anthology released in 2024 compiling several works from Mike Brooks, Denny Flowers, and Rhuairidh James. There will be spoilers.

Da Red Gobbo is synonymous with the fires of 'revolushun' which stir in certain Grots' hearts. Whether called to action by the oppression of da Ork bosses or by the need to lead their fellow twits in defiance of an overwhelming enemy, Da Red Gobbo is not one entity but a figurehead adopted by many a Grot.

This was definitely the most 'fun' we have had with a Warhammer novel. Our next Book Club will be a bit more serious with The Horus Heresy: Dropsite Massacre, written by John French, released in 2025.

TTP Field Manual is brought to you by Joshy and Jonny, best friends and gaming enthusiasts from their local group, Trust the Process Hobbies. Die-hard fans of tabletop gaming, we use this podcast as a platform to share our ramblings about the hobby (though we cannot shut up about Warhammer).

By day, Joshy is a therapist; by night, he's an RPG aficionado who grew up on Final Fantasies and crafting his own Dungeons & Dragons worlds. Jonny, a technician, spends his downtime conquering more video games than Joshy can keep track of. Zakky, our occasional guest, is a courier who loves buying things he then has to build.

We hope you enjoy, and we look forward to interacting with you on our Discord!

By day, Joshy is a therapist; by night, he's an RPG aficionado who grew up on (not-so) Final Fantasies and crafting his own Dungeons & Dragons worlds.

Josh loves sci-fantasy, and so is quite at home with Warhammer! He plays Necrons, Adepta Sororitas, and Aeldari. His playstyle is reserved and cagey, preferring to outmaneuver his opponents before delivering the killing blow. His painting approach is a blend of fast painting styles and technical effects. He's the resident lore expert and wishes he could apply his encyclopaedic brain to other areas of life.

Jonny is a big fan of magic in his games and putting together vicious combos. He's the de facto Champion of Chaos when it comes to Warhammer, playing Chaos Knights, Thousand Sons, and Chaos Space Marines. He loves synergistic army lists and is always putting together new ideas. His painting approach is classic 'Eavy Metal.
