Hi, My name is Jareth and I'm from Eastern North Carolina (Greenville).
I've been playing 40k for abit, and currently play primarily Tyranids, Eldar, and dabble
in Space Wolves (the models and fluff are just awesome). I started in the late 90s before
anyone else in my area at the time even knew what Wargaming was, and it pretty much flopped.
I ended up getting my hands on a ton of Dark Eldar for myself, Space Marines for my little
brother (12 at the time), and Sisters of Battle for my GF at the time. I tried to keep people
interested and round up players for about a year, and then Ebayed the entire thing off and
returned to standard Roleplaying. Then I moved up to Greenville in the early 2000s for school
and found a large new community of players, and got back into it. I've been collecting and playing
ever since.

My passion is defiantly not painting, though I enjoy it I'm never happy with how most my
stuff comes out, and I really just love getting them on the table and playing. I dislike playing with
a 'grey' army, but especially with Tyranids, I feel like I never get anywhere trying to paint them all.
My current Tyranid theme is a kind of 'Zerg-ish' look, heavy dark brown carapace, with a lighter tan under
color with accents in bright green, purple, and/or fleshy pink. I have taken to making my own models
for anything I can't get my hands on (Tervigon, Harpy, and at the time Hive Guard), and probably post
some pictures of how those went

Anyway, I guess that's a good intro so anyway, hello everyone and I hope to make lots of good
posts and friends. Now, to go feed the Great Devourer....

Welcome to dakka dakka buddy,

Hello and welcome to dakka dakka.

Hi, Welcome to dakka

Hello and welcome to Dakka!

Welcome to dakka Jareth.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who welcomed me! I'm a major 'nids player, so
most might posts revolve around them. Hope some of the discussions I've started are
amusing or helpful to others!

Welcome to Dakka! It's good to see a fellow Nid player amongst the Ork WAAAGH!, all the Space Marines, and, most recently, the Grey Knight takeover...

(Though we're not uncommon either! )

(Woops, just realized how late I' am... very sorry!)

Heh, I hear you brother.

Grey Knight madness has hit my FLG in a big way! Three of our players have snatched up GKs and I
have developed a utter hatred for Force Weapons! Though I do love the look on their face when
their 1850pt, 20 model army goes against 90+ Toxin Hormagants, 2 Tervigons, 40 Termagants, and
the rest of my Swarm. Yea, I'll suffer horrendous lose of life, but in the end, those bad boys drop from
the sheer amount of wounds I throw at them. Still.. *UGH* +2 Init Force Weapon Halberds @.@

Hey
Welcome to Dakka!
