How To Get Into WARHAMMER 40K in 2023! | 40k Tutorials

Today we are mixing it up a little bit and talking about a different Tabletop game! The worlds most popular tabletop game, Warhammer 40,000 (40k)

40K is not only an incredible game, but has a fantastic universe and deep lore. Fans of Tolkien that love his work for its depth and detail, 40K is the prefect Sci Fi equivalent to get into. Multiple races (Including Orks!) tales of bravery, treachery and more. We thought it would be a nice compliment to our existing Middle Earth tabletop content.

40K can be enjoyed from multiple areas... gaming, painting, collecting or just reading. Hopefully after watching this video, you want to do at least one of these.

If you would like to see 40K lore videos and Battle Reports, let us know in the comments down below!

I am here, because of Henry, I will follow that man anywhere. I am super excited to dive into this world for the first time!

[nono-choy]

While I don't have the money to get invested in the hobby, I love the lore surrounding it.

[RecSteady]

OP touched on this a bit already.
Im a little over 2 years in, now and honestly I love this game and all the aspects of the hobby in general.
My only warning to give anyone who sees this is to take your time. I still haven't played a game at an actual shop open night or tournament. The only social interaction I have had so far is that some of the workers are cool and a few are pretending to be interested in what you are saying to them. It can feel like you are expected to know everything about it before you get in a store. That isn't the case. Make 1 friend or get a starter set and play it with them or by yourself. Get the army you fall in love with first because that is what is important. Not competitive lists and not meta gaming. I have won games against friends with lucky roles and use of abilities as much as good strategy. I have lost games for the same reasons. If you aren't enjoying the game, even if you are losing, you might be soured on the hobby.
You can read all you like, you can listen to the audio books and YouTube videos on the lore and still just enjoy that aspect of this world.

You do not have to be a master painter at first. I got way too many models first and I practiced each stage of the painting on all of the models collectively. Repetition is so helpful for getting better. Green stuff is your best friend here. Do not be scared of stripping the first attempt and trying again.

Finally... no fuckin retailer aside from the 2 main sites that make game mats and turrain have tables that are the standard game board side. 44-30 44-60. You will be better off just getting some finished plywood and using it as a topper on the table you have available. Also you don't have to play on the standard board size in the core book.

I only know a little about 40k lore but I really love each character design. Especially the space marines and tau empire

[sergeiyamagoro]

The models have been calling to me for years. Now that my favorite card game has become vastly too expensive, I saved a ton of money by finally getting into WH40k instead. Just need to paint my first 500 points of Guardsmen now.

My armor is contempt. My shield is disgust. My sword is hatred.

[kingedwardthest]

Great video, really informative, would really like a more indept lore video personally.
I recently got back into the 40K hobby during lockdown after about 10 years away from it, I'm mostly into the Black library books, but just waiting on a kit to be delivered to see how rusty my painting is 😅
A little extra tip I'd give is to visit your closest Games Workshop and chat with the staff, they're always very helpful and will also help steer you right.

[Pandaramaster]

I’ve been after something like this for ages! Warhammer 40k is so dense and it’s daunting to know where to start! Great stuff 😁👍🏻

[Neinliveschannel]

I just now got into it and I'm slow setting up a space to start painting I just need more paint and figures now lol also sad I wasn't doing this sooner myself

[peterkonyar]

Thank you, I’ve been thinking about getting into Warhammer, because a friend of mine likes it, and that was enough to peak my curiosity

[dreamchaser]

Weellll, I'm gonna open that door now and see where it takes me. Thanks for this video, really helped me to get an idea where to start🤙🏻🤙🏻

[THX-togg]

The “Imperium” magazine out at the moment is a good and cheaper starting point.

[juanmartinBB]

I wouldn't mind if you did lore videos on Warhammer and/or W40K :)

Thanks for the video!

[possemis]

The absence of faith is the mark of the weak.
The absence of faith is the mark of the heretic.
The absence of faith is the mark of damnation.

[shannonsteven]

I think you're about to find a huge influx of people coming to your channel with the new series being announced.

[DerKindershreck]

My faith is my shield, my sword is my fury!

[ethanr]

I started with old gaurd and tyranid codex that were at my local used book store I wanted to build an amry never have built or painted anything in my life until that point and haven't regretted it since. Now year later I have spent over $5, 000 in making apocalypse armies of hive fleet behemoth catachan jungle fighters and twisted helix genestealer cult no regrets, I'm still buying more it's a great hobby and awesome to play great job covering the different was to play and definitely would like to here more about 40K on this channel liked and FOR THE EMPEROR AND THE GLORY OF THE IMPERIUM!!!!

[dezsodebreceni]

[dylantamez]

This game and it’s lore have been calling me for years. Never played anything like it and never been much into games in general, but this just seems so ill!
