This brings to a close the Codex Armageddon phase of Oldex, and it's a satisfactorily chunky one. A fond fairwell to the Codex that really got me passionate about 40K and a hobby that has lasted decades.
Next up, our first Codex requested by a listener.
Like my readings of GW literature? Why not do me a favour and post on the Black Library Facebook page and tell them you want me to narrate one of their audiobooks? That would make my week to be honest.

Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated. Hey, at least it's not such a gargantuan break as last time, is it?
Seriously though, thank you very much for sticking with Oldex. I didn't realise it had been a month, I thought it was more like two weeks. For the last couple of months my depression has really battered me. It's been hard to do the bare minimum when it comes to audiobook narration and voice acting that actually pays me. Doing this passion project on top was asking too much of myself.
One of those months was also spent narrating a 17+ hour audiobook for my other podcast, which is over 100 hours work. 1 hour of professional level audio, like Oldex, takes about 6 hours to do, so it was a significant chunk of my time. Thus, I appreciate you understanding why there's been a gap in episodes. I have as a result, however, improved my mastering process, so now its sounds even better!
Oldex is back.
