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
- 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.
Helpful Links

- iOS Warhammer 40k App
- Android Warhammer 40k App
- 3rd party site for running Kill Team games

As a kid, my parents bought me Space Crusade & "seigneurs de guerre" (french title, sorry, don't know the english one) games.
Played a lot with friends.
And my local town was hosting once a year a game festival, where local clubs could display what they do.
There was this table . Small islands, a big skull island, and flotillas moving around. That was Man'o'war. I was hooked (and approx. 8 yo).
Then found White Dwarf at the local library, and fell into the Hobby.
(And several aditions of this game festival later, I also fell into RPGs).
"seigneurs de guerre" the English name is Battle Masters, I still have the tower in my terrain collection, and I think some of the models are still about somewhere.
@Hrothgar59 @morras I have a whole box set that I want to paint eventually
