Cripes, 28 years. That's longer than most of you have been alive.

That is exactly how long I've been alive. 28 years and change. This game is almost as old as I am!

I first saw it when I was like maybe 11 or 12 at a local Hobbytown USA (which sadly closed down a few years later, although they quit carrying gaming stuff before that even). I thought the minis were pretty cool, but my dad did not approve (he was overprotective back then and didn't even let me play first person shooters or anything until I was like 15!). I didn't actually start collecting until about 2 years ago, and played my first actual game in September of 2014. I hope to play it for many years to come!

June. I'd been building army since Feb, but my first real game was months later.

Too fething long to be objective about it.

Started in June this year and have enjoyed every minute of it built up a decent number of DA's and also building my CSM/DoC army playing loads of games generally winning cant wait to play for years to come.

Since release, way back at RT. I'd not realised 2nd-ed had come out when I stopped around '93.
Then back in for 5th ed around '11, and am still here...

My dad got me in to it when I was about 5 or 6, can't really remember. So that puts me at 19/20 years.

Back when I thought Ultramarines were the best Happy times.

Started in late 2003, roughly.

I've been playing since about February this year.

I was REALLY into the hobby side of it when I was in my early teens ('92-'95) in 2nd edition, didn't really play much though.
