Hey fellow wargamers, I'm Cheese Elemental , I'm fairly new to the gaming aspect of 40K, but I'm packed with fluff. I got into the game when I got WH40K: Dawn of War. The ad for the books in the game manual led me to Wikipedia, then to the tabletop game, and I ended up spending $85 AU on a cursed tome of unholy rites (the rulebook) and then blew a further $80 on the CSM 'dex and a box of CSMs. However, Chaos was simply not my style. Tbh, I was just too lazy to paint all the bits and bobs, and I didn't like having to buy blister packs with heavy weapons when Loyalists were boxed with their phat lewts. So I moved on to Space Marines, namely the Raven Guard. Simple but good colour scheme, and Shrike is just cool. So I'm fully dedicated to the Imperium now, and my friend has stolen taken possession of my CSMs. My army's about 700 points now, and I'm going to start gaming within the month.

Welcome to dakka! As far as I am aware you are indeed the first Tasmanian

I wasn't even aware human beings lived in Tasmania on a permanent basis. Must still be interesting though. Welcome
