Cubicle 7 has published a focused primer called Where to Start with TTRPGs that walks new players and Game Masters through the first steps of Warhammer 40,000 roleplay. The guide targets Wrath and Glory, Imperium Maledictum, Wrath and Glory era material, and compatible d100 systems. It centers on practical, actionable advice to get a table up and running quickly.

At the top, the guide explains how to choose a setting and tone that fit your group, and how to find or assemble players. It details starter sets and beginner friendly boxed products, with clear suggestions on which products work best for an introductory experience. The guide also points to recommended starter products and where to buy them, making it simple to move from planning to purchase.

A core mechanics primer breaks down dice pools, tests, and success thresholds in plain language, so a new player can understand how outcomes are determined without wading through complex rules. Game Master advice covers running the first session, managing pacing, and balancing combat and roleplay encounters to preserve momentum and player engagement. The guide recommends using published adventures and starter scenarios as learning tools so new groups can practice the system inside a ready made framework.
