Dude, if you want to get into tabletop, get into warmahordes instead.
Cheaper and you'll meet some fun people in the process, also trust me if you want to get a "nerd" hobby, then go into this instead of mtg, MTG is probably the most expensive hobby you can get, next to hunting.
I personally play MTG, but I play it casually, I have spend quite a few bucks on it, but I keep it reasonable. Yes it's expensive when you keep up with standard or buy 400$ cards but I just play kitchen counter magic mostly.
The difference between MTG and warhammer is that the buy in cost for magic is free to 10 dollars. As for Warhammer I need to spend 100$ dollars to be able to have a playable army.
Free?
Haha.
Try sticking in with standard or expensive commander or just drafting once a week for 10 weeks.
Those card will fluctuate in price, but the models you paint and love?
Priceless.
I meant as a start-up cost. You can get free try out decks at local stores and play with those, if you find out you like it you buy an intro-pack and play with friends, you start drafting, you start playing commander. You increase the mortgage of your house to keep up with standard.
The point is you could try it out for free, or a few bucks if you bought an intro pack. I feel like warhammer is a bit more fenced of in that respect.
I am intrigued by the warmachine and horde but also a bit confused. Is the game called warmachine but another faction that game Horde? The site is not really clear.
Warmahordes are two games that can be played together.
They're both similar in many ways but they each use a unique system, one of them uses fury and the other uses Focus.
Warmachine uses focus, which is generated by the warcaster ( your leader ) and you can distribute that on your jacks ( giant robots ) too do cool stuff, such as hit stuff, boost to hit ( roll an extra dice ), hit stuff harder ( roll an extra dice on dmg rolls ) and you can use focus to do this also! You can use them on special attacks and running (Going twice your movement, spd in WM/hordes)
Hordes uses FURY which the warlocks start with and must use the beast (the hordes edition of a giant robot) too generate their resources to do stuff, basically in hordes big beasts and small beasts have a fury STAT which they use to generate attacks or power stuff and do what WM robots can do, but the reverse is in effect here, if you kill the beasts then hordes warlock( yourleader) will lose a lot of their power.
Ah thanks, I am looking through the different armies, and even though some horde armies look awesome I have a mighty need for jacks, this seriously peaked my interest and it seems a lot cheaper on the buy in cost than warhammer especially the amount of troops you need to start. I am going to read some more and look for a local club that plays. I really like the protectorate of menoth.
P.s. GW screws people over so badly! You might spend as much money in WH40k ( not fantasy or "age of sigmar" because they killed that game.) for a third of a unit or even fourth for something you'd pay maybe, yeah, 40$, but you get the ENTIRE unit. Not just half or a third or a 1/5 of what you'd like to play of it.
Oooh Menoth are awesome! I'm a student and yeah, my school is cheaper than yours probably but blah, it's a really good game!
I personally play Skorne, starting Menoth soonTM.
Don't gotta get the table top stuff, in fact I would recommend you DO NOT PLAY THE TABLE TOP, way too expensive with rules that are meh at best, go read some books of it, or play some of the games, hell even just paint some of the models you like.
It's not grammatically wrong but the usage is wrong. His point isn't that logical thought is being caused, but that it's being disrupted. So yeah, he's wrong in using 'effects' here.
This is very important with girls and stuff.
Having fun with girls is all great n' stuff, but don't let it be an obession because it will **** you up. You'll end up wasting months or years on a girl and end up hurt or even depressed.
