Warhammer 40K is what some may call…MEGA EXPENSIVE.
To piggy back on this, don't chase the fucking meta. By the time you get your Exaction Squad and paint it, GW will balance it into being a total waste of your time/money/points.
I remember in college, when someone would get into MTG, we'd jokingly say coke's cheaper.
Now, when someone I know gets into 40k, I much less jokingly say "MTG's cheaper"
Then again, if you're just playing for fun against friends, a $200 3d printer is cheaper than any army I've seen. Still costs more than a $45 booster draft, but at least the printer's a one-time cost
Come give Warmachine a shot, army sizes are usually smaller and the rules are less "my rule book was published more recently, that means I win" (Plus the models are slightly cheaper).
