To be fair , not saying IBM isn ' t shit but the expected requirements did not match reality . IBM was given the wrong requirements by ABS . <| sep |> Hi ! Its pretty cool that you are thinking of getting into the game . The armies I started collecting simply came in the third edition starter box , Black Templars and Dark Eldar . Over time , i really continued collecting because of how cool the miniatures looked . At the moment , I focus on the Dark Eldar because I love the miniatures and I like playing with an army that everyone things is garbage D you can see battle reports and tacticas on my youtube channel main thing I would recommend it the look of the army , and how much you would enjoy painting them . a horde army can be really fun to play , but its alot to paint 150 of the same model over and over and over again . Although an elite army might not be your play style . The internet tho is probably the worst place to find out what is worth collecting . especially to find out what is competitive . You need to play , learn and at the start pick a formation or a faction and just start painting , go from there . and learn from victory and defeat as you go !
