The Flayed Ones are Necrons lost to the Flayer Virus - the death knell curse of the C'tan Llandu'gor the Flayer. Likened to Zombies, Flayed Ones stalk the battlefields of Warhammer 40,000 to feed an insatiable hunger. On the tabletop, they have but a single unit, so we, Joshy and Jonny, thought, "But what if there were more?"

This is a casual two-part episode, beginning with an analysis of the new datasheets compatible with the Kill Team "Canoptek Circle" for use in 40k, and then sharing our ideas on just how Warhammer could expand upon the Flayed Ones.

We have a lot of fun theorising such things. Let us know on Discord if you'd like to see more detailed homebrew content!

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 in and around 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.
