My very first realy 40k army was IG which I started with the release of the excellent metal Catachans in the early 90's. I used it nearly every week for years and then when I finised university they went missing. Earlier this week I went home for a while and when poking around in a shed I found a suspicious looking box filled with all kinds of interesting GW relics including my Catachans. If only my Pretorians were there as well.....

Playing around with my find I have made a 2k list. Its pure infantry as while I found a few tanks they are all missing their turrets. I like infantry companies anyway, even if games do take a while
