This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

40k is a pretty shit game to begin with, the painting and maybe the lore is the best part. Everything else, including collecting at those ridiculous prices is a joke.
With how much of it felt like pure dice luck when I was interested, it ended up seeming like you'd be financially better off if you were gambling in a more direct way while also discussing lore for fun. At least you'd have a chance of coming out ahead.
I can't argue they don't overcharge for plastic, I haven't bought any of GWs in 20 years. I have enjoyed their freemium mobile games:

HumbleBundle got me their ebooks and audio books for dirt cheap.
