I really dislike writing introductory posts. I always wonder what to say, and what to omit (perhaps the hardest part…)

Anyhow. I'm a 31 year YOUNG guy from Stockholm, Sweden. I study graphic design (BA) at the moment and do some freelance design stuff.

Recently one of my friends told me he was going to start playing 40K. So I finally had incentive to start playing again.

I, uh, started back in 91 something with the weird 1st ed. rules and played on and off (SM) until 96-something when I found it hard to juggle both work and playing / painting. I've bought some minis on and off since then, but they always ended up collecting dust, and then they went in to the waste bin when it was time to move from old apartment to new apartment. (I still regret throwing away 6K of 2nd Ed. Marines… )

Aaaaaanyhow. Friend, starts playing. I want to start play again. Orders a bunch of orkz and paint and whatnot. Devours everything that's happened since 99-something. Washes…? Dip…? What happened to inks? Still the same outrageous prices…

Hopefully I'll be productive to the community somehow.
