Same person with additional notes! You asked for horror stories, and I don't have them. It's mostly an issue with conflicting ideals. Like I said, this is where a lot of the less socially adept nerds have meandered off to. So it's a very male-nerd-centric space with all that entails. Most of the time it's been lovely, but even as a 30-something average woman I feel very pedastal'd ("look it's a GIRL!" behavior) which is emotionally pretty exhausting. It's almost like a time capsule of nerd culture from before 2005.

Don't worry about being late to Warhammer, though. It started in 1983. That'd be a bit like being late to D&D :P So don't feel too intimidated or like you're late to the party. The party's so old it's swung around to being ageless.

(Okay, I'll stop chatting your ear off :D)

The anon you responded to
(Or AYRT)

Thank you so much for the deep dive! Honestly, it sounds like s lot of fun! I had no idea it was a time jump and it dealt with all this culture creating and evolution!

Is it strictly played in person or are there online servers you tend to flock to?

Thanks for sharing!

Yay! So glad you responded!

I've exclusively done in-person stuff, so my incredibly biased recommendation is to go that route. It's a super great way to make friends and learn more about the game.

Warhammer gaming shops are typically called "War Rooms" (it's literally a google-able term if you want to find a location.) Usually a war room will have a gaming space and lots of minis/painting supplies/books you can buy. They're great because they tend to come with a built-in community of nerds who are almost always milling around at any given hour. In my experience, the employees are usually super nice and happy to tell you about whatever's going on that day or how to join in on the games. And usually the people are, too (it helps if you compliment their nicely painted minis ;D )
