Hi, I'm the new guy. I look forward to being given all the rubbish jobs around the forum and making everyone tea, until someone else registers, at which point I can start bossing them around.

I'm very new to 40k and wargames, having never played a game. I've got a lot of miniatures, as I've taken up painting, and a mate of mine has insisted that I deploy some of them against him in a game or ten of WH40K. I'll need someone to tell me what to do in order to avoid being humiliated any more than is necessary and reasonable.

Apart from 40K I have a lot of miniatures for games such as Blood Bowl (I love BB, it's the only game I've actually played quite a bit of, albeit in the 80s and 90s, so I take it the rules have changed quite a lot) Infinity, and Age of Sigmar, as well as more board-game style stuff such as Zombicide, Super Dungeon Explore, and Star Wars Imperial Assault. My habit of buying these things and never playing them is kind of a standing joke among my friends.

tldr - Hello!

Hi,
