Choosing the wrong army for yourself could not only cost you time and money, but also your enjoyment of the game.There are ~26 Warhammer 40K armies to choose from.
It can be a limiting army, but that’s also an appeal to some.Generally, Grey Knights are good at close combat, but they do have some shooting as well.The great generalists of the game, as noted above. That said the army is very internally balanced, and most units have few options, so any unit you buy and field because it looks cool will be useful.as for the topic in general, if you have friends that play or a good club to play at that will help you learn the game I suggest a slightly different method. Outside of Open Play where anything goes, your army needs to be Battle-Forged in order to be usable. Azrael, the Dark Angels Chapter Master, is a great example, and works well with Hellblasters, allowing them to fire supercharged plasma shots with a greater chance of survival. By and large, This can be random, such as 1d3, or 1d6, or 2d3. It requires a lot of time and patience.It’s probably more of an approach if you want to hedge your bets and see if your going to like 40k as you can recover most your buy in this way.

Hopefully I can guide you a bit.My biggest piece of advice to anyone looking to get into the game of 40K is to find an army you like the look of. Harlequins are a very small army. Pick a play style and then an army that fits it. Once your account is created, you'll be logged-in to this account. Sisters are weak in close combat and prefer to shoot.They have a focus on speed with some fast tanks and Assault Marines.
