WARHAMMER 11th Edition Facts Every BEGINNER Needs

from AJM Nerdcore · host AJM Nerdcore

Brand new to Warhammer 40K? This is your starting point. This is everything a beginner needs to know about Warhammer 40,000 11th Edition. No jargon, no gatekeeping, no assuming you already know this stuff. 11th Edition launched TODAY on 20th June 2026 and if you've been hovering on the edges of this hobby wondering whether now is a good time to start, it is. There's a lot of noise around the Armageddon launch box and I want to cut through it honestly. I haven't bought it. And in this video I'll tell you exactly why, and why that might actually be the most useful thing I say today. We cover what's actually changed from 10th Edition, what's inside the Armageddon starter set, whether your existing Codex is still valid, how Combat Patrol works for new players, and what you genuinely need to start playing your first game of Warhammer 40K. Whether you've never rolled a dice in your life or you're coming back after a long break, you're in the right place. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Intro 1:09 - Is This Video For You?
