Hi all.
I eventually got a logon to work. Stoopid spam filters.
I got told to go and get a hobby at Xmas, so here I am. That's the last time the Missus suggests I find something to do 
Back into 40k after 20 years, when I bought single minis, and spread 40k all over my bedroom floor for a week at a time in the school holidays.
Now though, with the AOBR box and 1000 points of Eldar on order, it's time to get gaming again.
But, being too old to fit in at the GW shop games, does anyone here play around the Coventry area?
So, back to scouring the army lists and articles on how to get started properly.

Hey
Welcome to Dakka!
I'm sure if you asked in your local GW you might find out if they have a veterans night if you want to avoid all the 12 year olds!

Welcome to Dakka! You are never too old to teach the 12 year olds a lesson or two from the 40k school of hard knocks lol.

"Back into 40k after 20 years"
Wow! Welcome back, Veteran Brother! I thought I was gone a long time at only 11 years.
Would really like to see your old stuff if you post any up! I have a lot of RT and 2nd ed stuff that I love to pull out every now and then to impress the young 'uns, no doubt you'll have stuff that will make me jealous.
PM me if you'd like. Good luck finding a game and I hope you crush all that stand before you.

Sold all my old stuff ages ago :(
But, I did keep a box of assorted Termies, with a librarian and captain. Handy, now that the prices are so silly. Pads out the AoBR box quite nicely up to 1000 points.
The painting on them sucks big-time, so it's time to hunt for brown detol, if that's the stuff for stripping them down.
