Warhammer 40K Tabletop XXIX: Ro, Ro, Ro Your Boute

[Drasius]

Just a quick comment on how presenting Warhammer 40K as not a particularly expensive hobby is misinformation. New people should know that it's expensive, and that getting into it heavily will cost a lot of money.

Uh-huh. I can list hobbies cheaper than WH40K all day, and that's without getting into whether it's a hobby or just one product line in a broader hobby. I can also list hobbies more expensive for a while, mostly because almost everything vehicular ends up on that list.

If you can list hobbies cheaper than 40k all day as well as listing hobbies more expensive than 40k for a while too, wouldn't that make it slightly on the expensive side of average? WHich is exactly the point Cheese was making?

As far as hobbies go, no, it's not knitting, but it's not motorsports either and on average, while it can be expensive for plastic toy soldiersman dollies, it really isn't that much more expensive than many other activities around. There's the option of doing it on the cheap too with scratch builds and second hand as well as china forge while others are happy to exclusivly buy FW and will gladly pay others to assemble and paint their minis to exceedingly high standards before they ever play a game with them.
