Where to start

posted 1 year ago

Hello all. I have been lurking 40k subreddits and now here on Lemmy for quiet some times. I want to get into 40k universe and I need your help. Where to start? I love books. Which would you recommend to read first? Where to start in games?

All help is appreciated!

As for Games I can recommend dawn of war (1) including dark crusade and soul storm. They are old, cheap run on every laptop but are still good games. If you play a different faction in all three campaigns, you’ll have learned a lot about 40k.

Also the first Warhammer Space Marine was awesome, if you are interested in being a 2,5m Space Marine with brutal combat skills and hilariously good weapon sound design in the completely wasted world of 40k for a while.

A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

Keep it civil.
No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
No political or social cause agenda pushing.
