User:Tacobake

I spent a great deal of time on this site in 2007/ 2008 and there was talk in New Year's 2009 of gaming resolutions. Now, and this might sound stupid, but if you are reading this at all you are interested in the awesome that is the near-legendary Tacobake of teh Internets. So I am going to discuss my Dakka Code that I wrote just a couple of weeks ago, out of respect to this community if nothing else. I will update it again next year, hopefully I will have more plusses.

DC: 70; I would consider myself to be a collector and a modeller more than a painter, similiar to say Kid Kyoto or H.B.M.C.

S++; I win my games even if I have not (yet) made it to tournaments.

G+++; I know the rules.

M-; My Eldar have three colours on them and the bases are flocked. I make fun of the fancy techniques and do conversions.

B++; My terrain is awesome.

I+; I can adjust the lighting of a photo and the macro setting on a digital camera.

Pw40k03; I play other games but 40k is my 'main' game as of 2008/ 2009. This is dakka, after all. I have a strong interest in pen and paper RPGs.

-; I play regularly if not often.

D++; I have driven for an hour or more more than once.

A++; My Eldar army is near legendary. I also have assorted SpaSe MarineZ, Orks, uhhh. Chaos. Bits. I sold half of a previous SpaSe MarineZ army and still have the bulk of the extra Command Squad bits and various weapons.

/e; Believe it or not, I gave this one thought, I consider myself to use Elite units. Everblight Swordsmen over Archers. Mid-sized squads of Guardians and Aspect Warriors. Close combat Carnis. All the fun stuff. This would then presume quality shooting, use of tactics and mobility.

WD278; While this is at present my earliest White Dwarf I have a couple old magazines and piles of gaming books, old minis, etc, etc. I look to complete my horde ancient-dragon-style over the course of the next few years.

R+++; While I don't organize events (yet) I am a passionate and enthusiastic fan of miniature wargaming.

T(T); I consider my posts to be mostly tactical. As opposed to say YMTC.

DM++; My thing says I joined in 2006, I did not start seriously posting until 2007, although I seem to remember having an old interest in Crisis Suit configurations. I actually have an old login of "Autarch Scott" on one of the earlier boards but did not post much. I was a poster at Eldar Online once upon a time but found it generally uninteresting.


My dakka intro.

Various sample army lists demonstrating how awesome I am.

Asurmen's Host: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/217121.page

The army of a Khorne Lord: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/217169.page

One of his lieutenants, a Demon Prince of Nurgle: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/217287.page

One of his buddies, a Tzeentian Prince long grown fat and complacent from the spoils of his dark god. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/218918.page

I am looking at a martial Salamanders successor I call The Blue Dragons. While the Salamanders hail from a Death world (or something), they come from a Feral world, similiar to Space Wolves. The Samurai were Mongols were Arabs (scientists) and they fight and kill in the Emperor's name. Good times. Besides, I can use the transfer sheets. I did some blah-blahing on my old blog. http://tacobake.blogspot.com

I am always interested in rogue Inquisitor/ Siege of Vraks/ Lost and the Damned type armies, although others have me beat on that one. In another universe I have 10,000+ points of Khorne collected with a sprawling fortress terrain table. Think Storm of Iron. Titans, Warmachines, Tanks, renegade guard, Chosen, Nurgle and Demon lieutenants with their own warbands, etc, etc.

Others: Hordes (Everblight), Battletech (Clan Nova Cat), Heroquest and d20 RPGs, Zangband. I also maintain an embarrasing interest in Mathhammer. Embarrassing because I am such an unpracticed painter.

Taco-banners

Sphynx made these for me after complimenting him on his own. Iorek threatened to ban my spamming for a week if I put them in my sig so here we go.

That, and an Ork list:
