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.

You might be thinking of a Warhammer mod for Tabletop Simulator.

I’m out of the loop on current happenings, but here’s an old video on how to play 9e on TTS.

Honestly when it comes to tabletop play, the rules are only a part of it. A huge part not simulated by TTS is actually building, painting, and customizing miniatures. If you want to dip into getting a few miniatures, just to feel out the painting and building process, but not buying a whole giant army, skirmish games like Kill Team or the free alternative Grimdark Firefight only need a handful of models completed in order to play.

Hahaha painting is half of what kept me away from this but recently I decided I want to start to learn to paint and that led me back to thinking about Warhammer. No matter what I'm getting started on painting this week. Just random crap for now.

But no what I was thinking about was definitely an actual dedicated FTP game akin to hearthstone. Might have came and gone this was years ago...

I'll look at grimdark tho :)

If it helps... It was 100% something on steam. I'm almost positive I remember it from my Discovery queue

Tabletop simulator? Gladius? Dawn of war? Horus heresy card game?

I'm starting to think this was some Early Access shit that came and went super fast lol. I'll probably just end up looking into tabletop simulator

It's not free but are you thinking of Moonbreaker? https://store.steampowered.com/app/845890/Moonbreaker/

[–] EdibleFriend 1 points 8 months ago

No but this is pretty good for what I was wanting. Thank you :D

:0 unit painting looks sick, I'd love to see custom models in the workshop too.

You might be thinking of the Underworlds steam game? It matches the first two I think seasons of Warhammer Underworlds, am Age of Sigmar card+minis+boardgame sort of thing (honestly, one of GWs best games).

[–] EdibleFriend 1 points 8 months ago

Nope but still looks really good. I'm starting to wonder if I went all Mandela lol

I've given up on whatever this FTP game was. You guys have giving me a lot of great options
