      It's actually a more or less acceptable way to pronounce it. It ought to be LOO-per-cull rather than loo-PER-cull, but that can be put down to interpretation. For examples, see various English actors performing Shakespeare's depiction of Marc Antony's speech at Caesar's funeral: "You all did see me at the Lupercal: I thrice presented him a kingly crown which he did thrice refuse."

      Depends what part of 40k your interested in. If you want to know the context of why the imperium is the way it is and why chaos is a thing, I’d recommend Horus heresy. If you like a bit of mystery, eisenhorn is a good choice

      games:
      battlefleet gothic (for the space ship strategy fix)
      warhammer space marine (for some good old shooter/slashing fun)
      dawn of war I and II (older but good strategy games)
      a game studio called slitherine made a bunch of strategy/tactics games some good some ..not so much
      in general warhammer games are a big hit and miss, unfortunately
      books: yeah eisenhorn or horus heresy sound good but beware horus heresy is quite long and takes place during 10.000 years before the main setting
      BEWARE the reddit however, Arch for example is a persona non grata, you're not even allowed to mention him.
      I'd describe it as a lefty cesspool, filled with the worst parts of this fandom only useful if you have very specific questions.
      just stick with the youtubers, there are a bunch of great content creators here. for example 40k theory, baldermorts guide to warhammer, maybe some one mind syndicate etc.

      @@brettpid6416 Completely agree with your game and book suggestions: Eisenhorn is always my go-to for first recommendation. I've had completely the opposite experience with Reddit vs UA-cam. I've found the Reddit community to be really friendly and helpful, whereas the the UA-cam community has always felt more 'tribal'. Maybe a case of 'your mileage may vary'. That being said, I've not really explored the videogame side of the 40K universe, but more the novels/RP/lore, so maybe different communities within communities.
