Hello all,
Back in the day I played every GW game out there, starting with Rogue Trader and including some of their lesser known titles.
I especially enjoyed W40K and WFB and had more than one army of each.
I enjoyed both casual and competitive play and was one of the founders of the Warcon tournaments.
Long story short, life started to demand more time, effort, and money and I could no longer sustain my interest in the hobby. However, recently my brother and cousin picked up some armies off kajiji and we have started up W40K again.
I'm looking to start up a brand new Blood Angels army and will be posting up for advice.
Just want to say, it's good to be back.

Adam's Motto: Paint, Create, Play, but above all, have fun. -and for something silly below-
"We are the Ultramodrines, And We Shall Fear No Trolls. bear this USR with pride".
Also, how does one apply to be a member of the Ultramodrines? Are harsh trials involved, ones that would test my faith as a wargamer and resolve as a geek?
You must recite every rule of Dakka Dakka. BACKWARDS.

Welcome back to the hobby. I took a long break from it as well (wife kids house etc) but found my way back a couple years ago. Always enjoy meeting Veteran gamers. Hope you have a chance to post up some photos, especially of some RT stuff if you still have it, I love seeing old miniatures.

Unfortunately I got rid of all my armies back in the day. Hence my "Starting from Scratch" thread:

I do still have a few rulebooks / Codexes from back in the day which I kept just for the great fluff!
