As someone who is all about the 40k lore, have no clue how to play the game, don’t have any miniatures, you really gotta take it all in small doses as there’s so much of it or let someone on youtube explain it for you.
It’s good lore, it’s insanely deep lore, and it’s all over the place. Keep in mind it all takes place of the span of 10s of thousands of years. there will be entire novels of the most mundane Astartes chapter/legion. There’ll be legions/chapters you have no clue about because no one has written about them or they get shoved off to the side. I know a lot of the lore but I honestly couldn’t tell you anything about the twin Primarchs Alpharius and Omegon nor their Alpha Legion.
I played a small bit in the late 90s, it was fun chilling with my roommate and painting miniatures. Think I spent more time painting than playing though. They never lookrd great but was space marines in red with yellow accents, the odd things you still remember a 1/4 decade later.
