Windows 10 was absolutely not a miracle on launch, it had its own host of problems that got fixed or ‘features’ removed over time. I distinctly remember the indexing and search being completely worthless for the first year. Forums were filled with posters declaring they’d hold onto Windows 7 until their PC crumbled to dust, and then they would finally switch to Linux. Such is the cycle of Windows releases.

Against The Storm v1.1 update is out, improving early game variety and bringing a lot of QoL features

Pretty much how I felt too. I looooved Frostpunk and wanted more games like that. 100+ hours and loved every second, but eventually gotta move on. Tried Anno 1800 and liked it but not as much, got maybe 50 hours out of it. Tried Against the Storm and after 10 hours of not feeling anything I uninstalled. Really don’t get why Frostpunk and Against the Storm get lumped together, other than both having mechanics of building buildings and assigning workers. There’s sooooo much more to Frostpunk beyond that.

So how would one start checking Warhammer without any prior knowledge?

The Infinite and the Divine. Follows two Necrons, but you don’t need to know anything at all about them or 40K beforehand. It’s standalone, but connects with another set of books should you want more. It eases you into the density of the lore, while having the over the top charm we love about 40K.

Having read I don’t know how many warhammer books at this point I disagree with the Eisenhorn starting point. It’s good, but if you’ve read any sci/fi fantasy novel in the last 20 years then you’ve basically read Eisenhorn, but now it has a 40K paint job. Follows humans, which granted are interesting in the universe, but we’ve read enough about humans check out some immortal space robot mummies instead!
