I’ve recently developed an interest in Warhammer 40K and I’m curious about which faction to choose. I’m not keen on playing Tau, Eldar/Dark Eldar (I get that they’re quite different, so please don’t be mad), or Tyranids. I’m leaning towards Necrons, but I’m also considering the Imperium, Chaos, or Orks. I even think it would be cool to create a lore-rich story about several factions working together for a unique narrative. Any suggestions?

When it comes to gameplay, you’re pretty limited in terms of which factions can team up — you can mostly combine elements within the Imperium or mix some Aeldari options. So I’d suggest picking a faction that really resonates with you and go from there!
If you’re unsure, check out the “Combat Patrol” boxes. They’re a great way to start, and you can play with just that set using the free rules available. Plus, it won’t break the bank—around €110! If you find you’re not vibing with that faction, it won’t be a huge loss.
Cool, I’ll definitely check that out. Thanks for the tip!
Thanks for pointing that out! I didn’t realize there were strict rules about mixing factions.
