The Best Way to Enjoy Warhammer Is Your Way

Hobby & Painting

One thought I’ve had lately is that we’re here to have fun.

If you love painting but never play, that’s okay.

If you love playing with a fully painted army, that’s okay.

If you play with grey plastic because you’d rather spend your free time gaming than painting, that’s okay.

If all you do is build and kitbash, that’s okay.

If you start a game and realize you’re not having fun, it’s okay to walk away.

Not everyone enjoys every part of the hobby, and that’s fine. We all have different amounts of time, money, energy, and different reasons for being here.

I think we spend too much time telling people how they should enjoy Warhammer instead of just letting them enjoy it.

Paint your army. Don’t paint your army. Play competitively. Play narrative. Collect one model a year. Own ten armies.

As long as you’re not ruining someone else’s experience, you’re doing the hobby right.
