For a new Warhammer 40K player, what is the best army to start out with? I like Space Marines, Orks and Tau.?
I am new to Warhammer 40K and am looking for good advice in regards to creating a first army. I’m looking for something stable and forgiving, I really like the idea of Tau, but I also like Space Marines and Orks. I hear Dark Angels can field only terminators, which sounds neat too. Any help would be really appreciated.
Space Marines are very forgiving, both strategically and also for collecting. They have a special morale rule “…And they shall know no fear.”, they tend to shrug off some wounds with their great toughness and saves, and they tend to hit what they shoot/swing at. For collecting, you don’t have to be a Renoir to do a decent paint job on them, and you don’t need to be a millionaire to afford a decent sized army.
The Tau are what is considered a “shooty” army. An army that specializes in shooting, and does poorly in hand to hand assaults. The Orks are the opposite, their bread and butter is getting into hand to hand with a horde of boyz and killing an enemy.
