I know a few women who enjoy 40k. But the ones I know enjoy it like how I enjoy it… Just painting figurines, making little dioramas, and pretending like we understand the rules while some smarter player gives up and just tells us what to do next.
personally, the only person i’ve known who actually played wh40k was a woman (she played tyrannids). i’ve been wanting to get into it since they introduced leagues of votaan, but it is a pricey fuckin hobby to get into.
The price is daunting at first, but once you see people’s army’s and start seeing your own minis improve, it becomes a real hobby and you make it work.
I’ve probably spent way more money on paint, brushes, and practice minis before I started on my armies.
And then you’re hanging out in your local shop looking at some Space Dwarfs and stroke up a conversation with a dude who starts talking about the Black Templars and how cool they are for defending the Imperium just like All of the Real Crusaders which is honestly kind of weird because the dude is fucking Asian?
Look, idk about you, but if you haven’t played soldiers and tanks with a bunch of grown ass men, get yourself to a WH40k group and learn what cool is.
I refuse to believe that there are no women who enjoy Warhammer 40k.

It’s worth it IMO.
I do too. I’ve never met them, but come on. Playing tanks with grown ups. What’s not to love.
Paint your army, roll a bucket of dice, shout funny things. Play combat patrol, or just do a good ol beer hammer at a local brewery.

That wasn’t your damage, bro.
