Codex: Imperial Guard.
Do you always play the human in fantasy games? Did you choose to play as the alliance in WoW? Was your first character in the game a warrior? If so, you are a very boring person and now we have the perfect army for you! Instead of commanding post-human super soldiers, an undead robotic Horde or the creations of extra-dimensional horrors you get to lead army men and WW1 tanks into battle! Weeee!

Codex: Space Marines.
Fight with the biggest mary sues there is in 40k! Your plot armor is your shield! Your contrived powers are your sword! Get angry about how Marines are able to shrug of S: 8 ap: 3 weaponry in the lore but die like flies to it in the game. But, more importantly, almost everyone has had models from this faction at some point so they are dirt cheap on ebay. For the Emperor!

Codex: Eldar.
Fight with the real mary sues of 40k! If you enjoy airbrushing and OSL then you'll looove Eldar! Everything needs to be airbrushed! Have reIf you enjoy tasting the tears of your opponents then you'll really love Eldar! It's a painter's dream and a casual player's nightmare! Fluffwise, Eldar are better than pretty much everyone. Except Space Marines. No one can defeat the Space Marines! Except the Tyranids.

Codex: Tyranids.
Do you like painting dozens of models? Did you watch Starship Troopers and secretly wanted the bugs to win? Do you enjoy getting your codex nerfed with every release? Do you enjoy having the strangest models in 40k? Then Tyranids are right for you! Forge a narrative about how an Imperial Guard post was attacked and overrun. Forge a narrative about how an Eldar post was attacked and overrun. Forge a narrative about how an Tau post was attacked and overrun. all of these exciting storylines are yours to play out with the Tyranids!

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.
