I'm just as new to this hobby as you are. I have been interested in the lore of Warhammer 40k for a long time now, but only like a month ago I finally got my first minis and started painting them. It's way more exciting for me to watch your videos because it feels like we're on the same journey, experiencing the joys of this game at the same time.
That's awesome! The lore is soo good right! I've been listening to a lot of Adeptus Riduclus when driving to work and things. Which army/faction did you decide to start with? :)
@Rokkis_Gaming_Lounge Haven't really chosen an army yet. For starting out I decided to buy the Recruit Edition, which had Space Marines and Necrons in it. I really enjoyed painting the Necrons and they look really cool in large numbers, so they might become my first army.
man all your videos are so nostalgic, even though i didn't transport my models in a pie box with foam i remember starting off transporting my models in tupperware. your vids are always so genuine and refreshing everything on yt rn is so polished but it so nice to see someone that so new to the hobby just discovering more about it as they take they're hobby journey, just so wholesome. keep up the amazing content!
Thank you so much 😊 Tbh, I was contemplating using Tupperware too haha. I'm glad you are enjoying the journey, I'm having so much fun learning about the whole hobby & grim dark universe of 40k!
You learnt a few lessons today, I believe it was sun Tzu who once said to win the war you must first know your enemy, knollage is power, also your rhino is a soft transport to get your close range plague marines into combat range the rest just give slow supporting fire hard game against custodes remember your poxwalkers to absorb fire 🔥
Sounds like a fun game and a great first experience with the army. To answer your question about anti infantry and critical hits, your opponent will still be able to save from them. The keyword that converts your weapons damage into mortal wounds is called devastating wounds.
nice starter transport idea. one of the best long-term transport/storage solutions is a sturdy plastic box with magnets to keep models held in place. fairly cheap, works well and depending on the box(es) you use can be modular.
Yo congrats on your first taste of the tabletop! Sounds like you had a good time and have lots to reflect on in regards to the game you played. It always feels nice to play with newly painted models and Im sure you were stoked about putting them to battle. Looking forward to seeing how well you paint your heroes box as Im sure its got you excited to finish those!
Just for storage ideas, I’d look in to ESO tabletop, he’s recently put up a decent video about a very cost effective way of storing and transporting miniatures, especially good for your spiky stuff
So now that it has been 3 months later, all I'm thinking is... What is Rokki using for carrying his miniatures from point A to B? For sure that pie box is still not in good condition???
First
🥇
Sounds like you accomplished your goal of playing a fun 10th Edition game with you painted models!
Yes absolutley! Can't wait to play even more :)

The best boxes for starter players is their empty Leviathan box. It’s 40K branded and sturdy.
Hmm, I'll have to see if I can score one of somebody haha.

Oh jeez, it's going to take me sooo long to learn all about all the different enemies in 40k haha. Thanks for the tips!

Gotcha, thanks for explaining that! Sounds like we did the right thing then :)

Thanks! Right, I think I saw quite a lot of people using these over the weekend. Will have to try it out :)
Custodes are hard to play into especially for a first game. Good effort you'll get him next time!
They were so tough! It's a shame we had to call the game short. I think I would have got him in the end haha.
I really enjoy watching you find your way through the warhammer universe! Congrats on your first game!!!
Thank you, I'm having a lot of fun navigating through this new hobby :)
coool well done
Thanks :)

Thank you! Yeah it was such a blast! I need to get to back to work on the heroes. Been trying out some new things with them too :)
@@Rokkis_Gaming_Lounge cant wait to see what you've done!
Keep it up
Thank you!
Good job now all you need to do is keep killen them. Have good fortune Rokki.
Sounds like a plan :) Thank you!

Thanks for the tip! I'll go take a look :)
Anti infantry 2 means attacks against units with the keyword 'infantry' score a critical wound on a wound roll of a 2+
This rule has been so handy!
So now that it has been 3 months later, all I'm thinking is... What is Rokki using for carrying his miniatures from point A to B? For sure that pie box is still not in good condition???
I did eventually upgrade from the pie box haha. Turns out cardbox doesn't do so well in the rain..
