174: Champion to Champion: An Interview with Daniele Gorini the New World Champion

In today’s episode, George sits down with longtime friend of the show, and our very first patron, Val! Fresh off an action-packed weekend at Warhammer World, Val shares his journey through two fierce events, where he not only stomped the competition to win one tournament (securing a Golden Ticket back to Worlds) but also thundered into second place in the other.We talk epic battles, peak game moments, and the proudest victory of all—seeing his son, whom he’s been training, make a mighty showing of his own. It’s a dino-sized discussion full of tournament learnings and plenty of insight into the Jaws of Itzl. _________________________________________________Path to Glory is supported by our wonderful patrons on Patreon.

The grots are loose! In this episode, we take a deep dive intoBorgit’s Beastgrabbaz, perhaps the sneakiest, squirmiest warband to scuttle intoWarhammer Underworlds.

And since no grot goes to battle unprepared, we wrap up with a discussion on the best decks to pair with them, because a good scheme is worth more than brute strength.Grab your sneakiest squig and join us for some git-fueled mischief!_________________________________________________Path to Glory is supported by our wonderful patrons on Patreon.
