Why did I start playing Saga?

Rubbish In Rubbish Out.

That’s not a comment on Saga. That’s the name of the You Tuber that I first tripped over playing Saga. He had a wonderful easy turn of phrase, a pleasant Australian accent and was sharing the basics of a game that immediately looked cheap to get into and easy to game with new people.

I then discovered the in-depth stylings of the Wisco Horn Dog (now known as Roger Rules on YouTube… For probably fairly obvious unwelcome attention or false advertising reasons.) He introduced regular content with Saga Thorsdays weekly and then I was hooked and eagerly looking to make my first purchases.

These two content creators hooked me and kept my interest peaked and the event of joining a gaming group also became a major catalyst.

I realized that I could build two 4 point armies cheaply and relatively quickly and get a game played. My club seemed to be crying out for light skirmish sized relief from the rigours of the 30K and bloated 40K rules. They jumped at a different game to play and this has kept me building, painting and getting into new factions ever since.
