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

  1. Keep it civil. Don’t insult other community members in posts or comments, and don’t make posts designed to insult other community members or parts of the fandom with different opinions.

  2. Posts must be on-topic.

  3. No real life politics. That means no political advocacy, and no real life political discussions vaguely dressed up as on-topic posts. If you want to discuss real life politics, you are free to start your own community.

  4. No memes/low-effort spam/Youtube poops style posts. grimdank is a place for those.

  5. Posts must be coherent.

  6. If a post is otherwise allowed but has realistic gore or nudity, please mark it NSFW.

Weird mental health admission thing:

When I read a review of Space Hulk, I was low key traumatised by it showing the tactical display, with one of the screens showing static, with just a caption "he's dead..."

A few years later, I got a copy of the game, loved the "FOR THE EMPRAH!" sample, and I found the map view hilarious. Oh no, the genestealer is approaching! *dying noises* oh the guy just disappeared. Kinda took the edge off it.

I should try playing the game again, but I hear it's balls hard (Rory Fingers quote), and I think the CD-ROM is somewhere deep in the Pile.
