Truthfully, there's a really easy guide:
Do you have a box of models or a character? Do you have the 4 page rules(that GW stores give away for free) and the Warscroll for said box of models or character?
If so--congrats! You can play a game.

Looks good.
Could use a link to DakkaDakka.
Highly recommend the idea of linking to battle reports on youtube for examples of game play and painting guides on you tube.

Very well done. Thank you for putting it out. I don't know much how to use Facebook, so I clicked on your Facebook link you gave and joined it. So thank you for that, you helped me, get into AoS better now. Greatly appreciate it.

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.
Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

Very cool.
May I recommend you consider adding Realms of Conflicts episode 2 for AoS to your guide?
It shows how the game plays using the starter armies from the box, using the battalion rules and scenario from the back of the core book.
It's very good for getting across the relatively good balance of the starter for folks who go that route and it showcases how the rules are NOT gak, after all.

Thank you very much for the feedback! I'll definitely check out that battle report. I was trying to find one with the starter set but was struggling, thank you for pointing it out!

Thanks! Actually it went so good that my 40K models might take a little break. I think I like the AoS system much better than 7 Ed. Bought some VC units while I was there after the match doing a few hours of browsing.
