A joke a buddy of mine made is that 40k may have saved my life. I got into it 2 years ago, and since then my life and choices have changed quite abit. Now I hang out with my 40k group atleast 1x a week (there's 12 of us) and spent all my money and time.enjoying my hobby. Before 40k I had no hobbies and just spent my time and money drinking and doing drugs and eating like shit. The plastic Crack consumed my income instead

My favorite thing about 40k lore is how much you can get out of it. One day you can be philosophically musing on the nature of evil, and the next day you can read about two Egyptian robot zombies with a 65 million year old grudge against each other using reality bending god technology to beat each other with their old man sticks.

"I do recommend getting into Warhammer, however that looks for you"
That last part is so important for people to understand. I know painters who have never even played a game with their models. I know lore experts who are plastic-crack free. I know people who know Vermintide 2 in and out, but nothing of 40k. I think that's what makes it THE hobby

I love the over the top whackyness that extends to the players. On the tabletop with certain rule sets people have done things like called up other game shops across town to call in artillery strikes from other players because those artillery units had unlimited range making it perfectly legal and viable.

To summarize Orks
Orks + Color Red = I am Speed
Orks + Knife = Angry Australian
Orks + Fear of some guy = guy is invincible
Orks + Orks = Bar Fights In Britain
Orks — Knife = s a d
Orks + Scrap Metal = huge mech with hundreds of Orks needed to use
Orks + Huge mech = Death
Orks + Space Marine = Dead Orks
Orks + Custodian = Mass Orks genocide
Orks + Ork with Funny Hat = Portal

Warhammer was my first real introduction to classism as a kid. I thought all of us nerds were all in it together with our D&D books and imaginations of fantasy worlds. Turns out if you had rich parents you didn’t have to imagine it. You could own it in miniature. I always found it fascinating.

I just got into Warhammer literally a week ago and man this is the most relatable video I’ve seen all year from the fact it remained hidden from me for 25 years to financial cost to the fact I’ve spent 12 hours today building this stupid huge Guard Army that are my treasures and I’ll hurt anyone who hurts them.

As someone who became a warhammer fan when my uncle gave me his old gaming rig in 2006, I just want you to know, the lore can be serious or even creepy sometimes, but for every "The Watcher in The Rain", there is a "The Infinite and The Divine". Just keep your head on your shoulders. Also, I approve this video. Very much captures the general vibe of warhammer 40K. Unfortunately, you forgot the blood sports and the super cocaine the eldar were also doing when they made buildings out of flesh and started having orgies with them, but I'll give you a pass. We people of the craftworlds didn't want anything to do with that anyway.

As a BIT of a veteran I wanna say:
Warhammer is expensive AT FIRST.
It has a HUGE buy in cost, but remember, unlike card games, you will use these miniatures for YEARS. You only need to buy them ONCE. People still use miniatures they bought and painted in the 90s, and they look GREAT! Remember it's an investment and a collection. And once you have your full army (~ 2.5 to 3k points) your spending amount DROPS through the floor. I spend maybe 20 bucks a month TOTAL on Warhammer and I have 4 full armies.
Sorry bit of a ramble, but just remember, your buying in huge, yes. But the cost doesn't stay high for long, just remember to budget properly.

Okay so I messed something up. The Dark Age of Technology is evidently the golden age of technology, from 15 to 25k. They call it that because they're scared of technology now. 25-29k, when everything was ACTALLY bad, is called the Age of Strife. Thank you comments for being polite about that.
