Hi everyone,
I'm new to these boards and thought I'd say hello and ask a few questions.
I started gaming in 1994, through my school's wargaming club. Most of us were playing 2nd ED
40K and I loved it. I had a pretty decent space wolves army as well as smaller Ork and Chaos armies (Mostly for lending out to newbies
) I also played the hell out of Necromunda when it was released, I still have a few gangs and my rules for this. Alas most of my
40K miniatures were either (a) sold off or (b) stolen before I left school and I kinda fell away from the hobby after that.
However on a recent clear out of my parents attic I found some of my old gear and upon showing it to my girlfriend she said if I wanted to get back into it she would too (already knew i was lucky to find one like her
lol) So I had a look on the internet and quickly realised I'm way out of date on rules etc with the 5th ED being released so I'm back to square one.
Now a few questions if you guys wouldn't mind giving me a few pointers.
I'm looking to start out pretty basically, so how much would I need to spend to get a decent starter set, paints, minis, rules etc?
Have the rules changed much since 2nd ED
40K?
Has the actual hobby (painting, modelling, playing) changed much since 2nd/3rd Editions?
and finally
Do land raiders still kick ass?
Cheers in Advance
