How much does Warhammer 40k cost total?

I've recently been considering getting in to Warhammer 40k. How much would it cost me total to have a decent army, book, etc?



Any good ways of saving some money on these things?How much does Warhammer 40k cost total?
Well, to start with, you're well-advised to go with the Assault on Black Reach boxed set. For 拢48.95 you get two armies, plus the rulebook, dice, measuring sticks, templates and everything you need to know to start playing straight away. The miniatures alone, bought separately, would cost over 拢100, so it really is the bargain of the century, wargaming-wise.



To move beyond the constraints of the AoBR boxed set, you'll need to decide on an army (obviously, the cheapest option will be Orks or Space Marines, as these are the armies already included in the boxed set!) and buy the relevant codex. The marine codex is 拢18, the ork one, 拢15 (but prices are going up in September, apparently).



After that, how much you want to spend is really up to you and the size of the army you want to buy. You can save a lot of money by browsing ebay or by going to any one of the excellent online retailers, such as http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk and http://www.giftsforgeeks.org.uk, where GW prices are discounted by more than 10% and often free postage is available.



With careful buying you can get an army of 1000-1500 point for less than 拢150, but you need to add paints and modelling materials into that, too. Let's say that you can get in and play to tournament standards with a good-sized army for less than 拢200. But if you can stop at 拢200 then you're a better man than me.How much does Warhammer 40k cost total?
