      Usually the people at the store are friendly and willing to play with new people, at least when i was playing a few years ago (gonna try and get back into it), however you will always run into someone who just likes to stomp. It wasn't mentioned much in this video but there can sometimes be things that are just broken. Last year the two biggest were eldar of aloitic, which had impossible to hit flyers and iron hands space marines, literally unkillable. You take a dreadnaut put it at the front so everything shoots at it. Then put a squad with feel no pain and an apothecary behind it. Basically the dread can transfer its wounds, if they made it past the armor, to the squad which can then apply feel no pain and they can get back up thanks to the medic. They try to balance the game but there is always a cheese. Like space marine chapter master Smashf***er, which you can find on that 1d4chan site.

    Jeweler's tip for people with shaky hands :
    1) Have both your hands resting on something as you work.
    2) Have a contact point between your hands, directly or by both being in contact with the piece you're working on. It can be as small as the tip of a finger, but it will make a big difference.

    When i was like 12 my friends and i walked past a games workshop and because we were assholes, we went in thinking it'd be funny to laugh at the nerds. They guy who owned the shop was super nice, knew we'd never seen this shit before and he had a a selection of like, random miniatures for people to paint. We all painted one and had a tonne of fun. We each biugt a £5 box of little dudes. Painted them at home and went back every weekend for like a month. A couple of us kept going and got super into it. My mum and sister went on holiday and instead of that, my dad and me bought a bunch if stuff like third pyramid rocket ship and a tank andna bunch of dudes. We painted them over a weekend and used a big slab of wood, some green pain, and some newspapaper to make a hilly battle field. And i had a lot of fun. I played a couple battles at the shop. Stopped playing it after a while idk why. But, when i say i have 0 artistic tallent, i mean i can barely draw a passable stick man,. I had loads of fun and this video kinda made me wanna buy some figures and paint them with my fiance for fun

    Tip for anyone getting into the hobby: don't buy games workshop's paints, brushes, sprue cutters, ect. GW tools can be twice the price of the exact same or better product elsewhere. Personally, I use Vallejo paints, and you can find paints from other companies which match the color of GW paints, but are cheaper. Also, in my experience, GW paints dry out in the bottle faster.

      Contrast paints are a pretty unique product and washes are good. Their terrain paints are mostly a big no (maybe that martian earth stuff), because Vallejo has great terrain material (resin paste with different sized particles) thats much cheaper. I personally use Ammo Mig brushes since my FLGS stocks them and they are like 2-3 bucks for a pretty decent and long lasting brushes. And other types of paints aint that bad, its much easier to follow official guides when names of paints match. Even though I'd mostly recommend focusing on their layer paints, since you can use them both as base and layer (works even better as base paint if you do stuff like zenithal priming), while base paints are way too thick to be used as layering/edge highlighting paints in my experience. Just my 2 cents.

    Hi, just wanted to pop in with a basing tip! There is a product known as Play Dirt. It's like kinetic sand, but colored to look like regular dirt. I found some at a dollar store and absolutely swear by it. Mix in a little gravel or sand for some easy dimension, spread it over the glue, brush off the excess, add a pebble or bush or something, and BOOM, perfect bases every time.

    A lot of people (including Marcus) might hate this, because the models are a huge part of the game for many. However when I was younger, my older brother and his friends would play using different colored army men or index cards with the unit info written on it and a tally of the casualties. It’s a great way to get into the gameplay without spending as much. Still need the books, but it’s at least a little cheaper.

      You can literally use cardboard/paper cutouts, ive seen people do it. And you can find rules online, same as with codexes (even though thats techincally not allowed). Basically, if you just wanna play the game, you can do it almost for free, or even on PC via tabletop simulator for way less money. But I honestly mostly paint stuff and thats the part I actually enjoy. And building lists is fun.

    Some cost effective alternatives when getting into Warhammer:
    - 2D Paper miniatures. Just print, cut, and glue, and you're ready to go.
    - 3D Printed miniatures. Takes an initial investment and requires extra effort, but the result is minis that cost pennies. Plus you get a 3D printer.
    - If the books are putting you off, consider One Page Rules, with Grimdark Future and Age of Fantasy. It's simple and free, and has stats for just about everything in Warhammer (just with different names).
    - Also, a great resource for terrain is Wyloch's Armory. Similar to Black Magic Craft, but much easier for beginners, and with a focus on 40k terrain.

    "How to get extra depressed by being poor: The Video" fixed the title for you.
    This shit looks amazing, I had a neighbor when I was little (7-8 years old) who had a lot of this miniatures and he would explain me for hours the factions and the game. He even helped me paint a small orange troll which I lost with the years (maybe it's in some box but with moving and such, but I doubt it).
    Maybe some day I will find some one who plays this and I might get in, because it IS overwhelming as fuck, but with someone passionate to help you and teach you this can be one beautiful hobby. Thanks for the video!

      if you want an even cheaper (but more dubious) way of playing, there is a Trove of Tabletop rules available online if you google the right words.

      @erikcarrillo33 Unfortunately non-GW models are not usable in any official events, except for maybe the super expensive CraftWorld ones. And they're definitely expensive normally but they kind of have to be for the company to stay afloat. They aren't really an item that wears out or breaks and requires replacement.

      If you don't want to spend huge sums on models, check out Reaper Miniature's "Reaper Bones" product line. $2 - $5 for pretty much any figure, barring the really big stuff. The detail / quality won't be nearly as great as GW's, but it's a great way to get painting for cheap. Your biggest expense this route will be paints themselves, and even then just get Red, Yellow, Blue, Black and White and you can mix together any color you need.
