The Hive ยท Our Discord

The Swarm has
a home.

Watching videos makes you better. Talking through your lists, your matchups, and your losses with other players makes you better faster. That's what the Hive is for.

What you'll find

#list-help

Post your list as its own thread and get real feedback from the Swarm โ€” including from me. Every list gets eyes on it.

#tactics-and-matchups

Deployment, target priority, and honest answers to "how do I actually beat that army?" Bring specifics, get specifics.

#hobby-and-painting

From your first Termagant to a full hive fleet โ€” every scheme and skill level gets celebrated here.

#tournament-chat

Prepping for an event or posting live from one โ€” this is the war camp. Trade intel, talk pairings, share results.

Community events

The Feeding Grounds

Our monthly community ladder. No brackets to schedule, no software to learn โ€” just play Warhammer and report it.

  1. Play anywhere. Your local store, your garage, Tabletop Simulator โ€” any 40k game counts.
  2. Report it in the Hive. A table photo, your opponent's faction, the score, and one thing you learned.
  3. Climb the ladder. Wins score big โ€” but reported losses score too, because learning out loud is the whole culture.

How events work here: I build the arenas and set the format. The Swarm does the fighting.

Each month's Apex Predator earns
  • The Apex Predator role, held until someone takes it from you
  • A free 30-minute coaching session with me
  • A shout-out in the next video's outro

Season details and standings live inside the server. Leagues and bracket events join the rotation as the Swarm grows.

Culture check

The house rules

Three things that make the Hive worth being in. The full rules live in the server โ€” these are the spirit.

No gatekeeping

Every vet was new once. Questions are welcome, netlists are welcome, and "git gud" energy is not.

Real lists, real losses

Transparency is the culture. Nobody's hiding secret tech โ€” we share what we play and dissect what went wrong.

Keep it fun

Competitive doesn't mean joyless. At the end of the day we're all pushing plastic bugs around a table.
