Greetings fellow wargamers!
I've registered to Dakka some while ago, and for some reason thought it would be a good idea to have a look around before coming out from under my rock. Anyways, better late than never, so hear I am
I suppose this is where I write something about myself. Oh well, here goes.
One day back in 2006 I found out about wargaming by accidentally visiting a FLGS where I pop in every now and then. I ended up picking up a dwarf battalion, but if you were to ask me today, what my favorite army is, I'd say ogres.
Then came the new codex, which completely took out the fun & challenge of using machines. And don't get me started on all the other  changes.
Not so long ago I picked up the Imperial Guard and am enjoying them a lot. Definately a challenging army to control, but they have the "it" in it... Well, something like that. As of now,
I don't think even a rulebook change would get me back into FB, which is why I'll probably end up investing a lot of time and funds into IG. Right now I've painted my first guardsman after a month of experimenting with colour schemes, and magnetized anything I could think of. Sentinel weaponry, the extra armour, sergeant arms with boltpistols and plasmas, even the loaders for HWT, and soon to come a leman russ with everything about it interchangable. Maybe one day I'll even install an engine in it. Striving for perfection is futile, but there's nothing wrong trying, right?
Alrighty, enough about me and I hope you're still awake. Thanks for looking!

Well the world isn't going to take over its' self now is it? And what kind of achievement will that be without fashionable henchmen? Normally this wouldn't have been a problem, but I had all my fashion designers executed.
Should anyone help design a new flashy uniform, I just might spare you on the day of judgement. MUHAHAHA!

JB: I like the concept of a free Shrike roaming through the treetops of the jungle. I'm not sure that I like the idea of a real Shrike sitting on my couch eating my Skittles.
corpsesarefun: Thank god I missed be nice to shrike day.
greenskin lynn: because of all the skittles and soda, you basically live off sugar water, like some sort of freakish human-hummingbird hybrid. |
