Thanks for the suggestion - but I am not the biggest fan of the units in the box - or rather they are not on my priority list for what I want to paint and build. I am currently thinking of paint schemes, but am curious if there is any chamber that deals alot with either Slaanesh or Sylvaneth? I ask as my brother in law has started collecting sylvaneth and my wife has decided to join the hobby as well and she is playing Slaanesh. If I like a paintscheme associated with either army it would be cool to paint up.

This is how I will be approaching the hobby. Years ago when I played with my friends back home I always felt rushed and pressured to speed through painting my 40k army which took away from what is probably the best part of the hobby. If there are any unusable units I would try to avoid them unless you tell me the guys mounted on dragons with crossbows are bad. Because they look to cool not to paint.

Thanks for the info that was actually really helpful. I have painted minis before, played 40k years ago, so I have a little experience. Wasn't a very good painter then mostly because I was rushing so I could play with friends. Going to take my time with SCE though. I think I will start with a box of Sequitors as I really like the look of them. From there I am not sure where I will go as I really am spoiled for choice. There are so many great looking models. I am not to fussed about "competitive lists" as long as what I collect can get some value on the board for some beer and pretzel games I am happy.

Hey All, Probably a question that has been asked a hundred times before. But I am getting overloaded with information online. I am thinking about taking the plunge and starting my AOS journey with the SCE. Don't have any friends who play tabletop, but I really like the idea of the hobby and the models, so I will just be slowly collecting and painting. I was wondering what unit I should start with? I would prefer to just buy a single 30 quid box to start with until I find some people to play with and have a need to field a full army (and avoid a massive upfront cost to get started). What unit would you recommend to start with (both for use in game and fun to paint).
