Warhammer 40k, and especially the orcs, always seem awesome whenever someone talks about it. But it's way too expensive of a hobby for me, and I'm someone who used to have a rather substantial pull list at the local comics shop. Also I've definitely heard of a few people who are a bit too unironically into the Imperium politically.
But red make thing go faster!
Some people look at the imperium as the good guys because they're human. The truth is, there are no good guys in 40k. Especially not humans.
...well, depending upon how you take retcons, there's the t'au: i think they work best as a force for good doomed to fail in an uncaring universe, personifying tragic loss of innocence...
a force of good wouldn't castrate you
Yeah... Or they're slaves to the ethereal class
If the emperor had a text to speech device was my gateway drug, it's such a good series on YouTube. Shame it got ended by lawyers.
If you want a much more affordable approach to the tabletop game, try battlesector 40k, it's pretty good and accessible
I love the lore of it, but I have the same problem with the hobby. I ain't spending 30$ on little guys I gotta paint myself, and then make a whole army of the expensive little bastards!
$30 per squad was 2019 prices.
