Warhammer 40,000, also known as Soyhammer or Chudhammer is a British monetary pyramid-scheme, brought to you by (((Games Workshop))), pretending to be a tabletop wargame and assemblable miniature-model line aimed towards neurotic faggot manchildren to trick them into buying extortionately expensive products and merchandise - essentially price-gouging them of any money they have that would've otherwise been more useful if they saved it up for something that would actually help them in life. It's particularly popular in Chud circles for them being able to LARP as eight-foot tall genocidal religious supremacists, and thus has an extensive relationship with the users of the 'arty. You may recognize related posts or 'jaks adorning futuristic armor with comically large pauldrons, cartoonish guns, and bearing Middle-age or Victorian-era symbology.

It's history and fictional setting is extensive as hell and unfortunately devolves into obsessive lore-whoring; which inevitably leads to the most pedantic, incestuous debates between fact-checking spergs who "enjoy the hobby" so much that they need to constantly marinate each other in rancid passive-aggression that would cause an entire neighborhood to troon-out and kill themselves from the sheer amount of estrogen radiating from it. Essentially, it takes place in the future of the 41st millennium where mankind is a galaxy-spanning empire constantly getting raped, enslaved, tortured, or killed by everything around them including themselves. If you have a favorite trope or story that exists in popular fiction, chances are there's some fucked-up twisted parody of it that is embedded in this universe. That's not to say all of it is edgy or unoriginal, let alone bad - but there's at least 500 different writers contributing content to it who all have their own approach and interpretation to it, so the quality of said fiction will never cease to fluctuate.

The "game" itself isn't too bad either if you ignore the fact that they constantly change the rules every five seconds while adding in new models that make it more and more impossible to balance the meta; and if you're genuinely interested in model collecting - or "army-building" as it's called - then please for the love of god just find a 3d printer (entry level ones are like $150) and make them yourself, don't actually give these scumbags your money and pay half a grand for a couple tiny unpainted unassembled plastic figures that probably only costed eight dollars to produce in some third world sweatshop. Some models cost more than a fucking 3d printer and the feedstock to print them, so there's no reason to overpay.

Like every other roleplay or tabletop game in the past few years, there has been a massive influx of troon-culture (((Thank you Matt Mercer))), and thus it is hard to find a game with people who aren't narcissistic pathological fetishists, redditors, or just anyone in general who has terrible hygiene and social levels so God-awfully inept and awkward to be around that it immediately kills any chance of actually having fun. The best way to approach this is by playing it with people You personally know, and consistently avoid buying anything if there is a cheap or free alternative.
