personally, the only person i've known who actually played wh40k was a woman (she played tyrannids). i've been wanting to get into it since they introduced leagues of votaan, but it is a pricey fuckin hobby to get into.

The price is daunting at first, but once you see people's army's and start seeing your own minis improve, it becomes a real hobby and you make it work.

I've probably spent way more money on paint, brushes, and practice minis before I started on my armies.

It's worth it IMO.

I know a few women who enjoy 40k. But the ones I know enjoy it like how I enjoy it... Just painting figurines, making little dioramas, and pretending like we understand the rules while some smarter player gives up and just tells us what to do next.

I do too. I've never met them, but come on. Playing tanks with grown ups. What's not to love.

Paint your army, roll a bucket of dice, shout funny things. Play combat patrol, or just do a good ol beer hammer at a local brewery.
