Why you should switch from “Star Wars” to “Warhammer 40.000”
After years of consuming Star Wars content in various forms, I have started to make the transition to “Warhammer 40.000” and I haven’t looked back since. Here’s why you should too.
Similiar But Different
Both “Star Wars” and “Warhammer 40.000” are popular science fiction franchises that have captured the interests of millions of fans worldwide. While they superficially seem to be quite different, both franchises feature epic battles between good and evil, advanced technology, space wizards, and a vividly-delineated universe filled with unique characters and cultures.
One of the biggest similarities between “Star Wars” and “Warhammer 40.000” is the scale of their universes. Both franchises feature sprawling galaxies filled with countless worlds, each with its own history, culture, and conflicts. Both also feature powerful technologies, such as lightsabers and power armor, as well as magical systems, such as the Force in “Star Wars” and the Warp in “Warhammer 40.000”, which are central to the stories of both franchises.
