YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Spectacular battles, extraordinary characters, limitless creativity! Warhammer encompasses a variety of tabletop games, miniatures, universes, and stories. Warhammer Age of Sigmar is a high-fantasy setting full of magic, warring factions, and strange elemental realms.

There are loads of ways to enjoy Warhammer. There’s selecting kits to add to your collection, the satisfaction of building intricate models, and the enjoyment and pride of painting miniatures in your favourite style. You can play small skirmish games – or enormous battles with multiple people on each side. Or if you want to just sit and relax, you can read incredible stories in fascinating fantasy and science fiction settings. There’s room for everyone here.

The Warhammer hobby is also a social community. Clubs, Warhammer stores, hobby shops, and conventions give you plenty of opportunities to interact with like-minded hobbyists. Bring your friends along with you, or simply show up and make new ones.

Absolutely not. There are loads of ways to enjoy the Warhammer hobby on your own – reading, collecting, building, and painting. There are even some games you can play on your own. If you prefer to seek out other people to share your experience, head to one the many Warhammer stores located all around the world, and join the online community via our social channels.

We have plenty of helpful tools on our YouTube channel to help get you started, including guides for building and painting miniatures. Our Warhammer store staff are also an excellent resource for advice and support. It’s easier than you think.

That depends on the size and complexity of the miniature, and your level of experience. Going slow and steady at first is entirely appropriate, but you’ll soon pick up speed as you get comfortable with the tools. Head to your local Warhammer store, or one of our global events, to try building a Stormcast Eternal or Space Marine miniature for FREE!

That also depends on the size of the model, how much detail it has, how long you want to spend on it, and your experience. You choose how you’ll paint them, so you can scale up the details as you learn. Just as with building your first miniature, you can try painting one at your local Warhammer store or official events, free of charge.

• Painting your miniatures and making them yours is one of the most satisfying and rewarding parts of the Warhammer hobby
• There are few things more impressive and immersive than a fully painted collection
• Most folks find the process of painting to be relaxing once they get the hang of it
• If you wish to eventually enter an official tournament, you’ll need to have a fully painted army

No, but you can buy paints in various formats – individual pots as you go, or pre-selected starter sets. Building your selection of paints is very satisfying.

Varying times depending on the game.

Absolutely! Team up with your friends to play doubles matches, or free-for-all multiplayer against. Most of our gomes include official rules for multiplayer action.

Most of our games are against a single opponent, with some exceptions. If you’re after a dedicated co-op board game experience, check out Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress and Warhammer Quest: Cursed City. Both of these games revolve around a team of heroes exploring a dangerous setting, with enemies controlled by pre-determined behaviours.
