    AOWdu 191.1 Custodes Codex Review

    Hello everybody! Here we have the brand new (maligned) golden banana codex review. Unfortunately Jack was waylaid at an event so the lovely John Legend joined us for this review. But fear not, after pioloting custodes at the WTC level John is well placed to pick up the slack.

    This is not a good book, either internally or external balance wise. But we do our best to polish this one up for hopefully a truthful but overall good listening experience.

    Love you all
