⚠️ Things to Know

Cost of Entry

Consideration for Players: Miniatures, rulebooks, and accessories can add up. Starter sets help reduce initial cost, but building full armies is a larger investment.

Rule Updates

Consideration for Players: With each edition, rules can shift. Older models might need new datasheets; balance changes can affect army builds.

Painting Time

Consideration for Players: A polished army takes time—assembly, undercoating, painting, basing. If you're after quality, patience is part of the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Age of Sigmar beginner-friendly?

Yes. Age of Sigmar starter sets are designed for new players, with simplified rules, core units, and everything needed to begin. You can expand as your confidence grows.

How do I choose a faction in Age of Sigmar?

Pick a faction based on the models and lore that inspire you most. Stormcast Eternals offer durability and a “good guy” feel, while Nighthaunt bring a gothic style. Browse the miniatures to see what excites you—that’s the best starting point.

How many models do I need to start?

You can begin with just a small warband or starter box. Most games scale up gradually—so you don’t need a huge collection to play your first battles.

Do I need paints and tools to play?

Yes, since models come unpainted and unassembled. At Hearns Hobbies, we stock the Citadel and Green Stuff World ranges—everything from clippers and glue to primers and paints—to help you bring your army to life.

How often do the rules update?

Games Workshop refreshes the core rules with each new edition (roughly every few years) and releases updated Battletomes for factions. Don’t worry—we’ll help you find the current books you need.
