So I finally stopped lurking in the shadows (suitable for a tyranid player, i suppose) and made an account. So hello, I'm Schlyne, I'm female, and sorry, I'm taken.

I started warhammer 40k at the end of Jan of this year, along with my bf. Actually, I kind of brought him into the hobby. I had finally gone into the local GW looking for storage options for a massive number of zombie minis from kickstarting a couple of boardgames.
I play Tyranids and I have one of the Imperial Knights, although I plan on going Adeptus Mechanius with it. My bf plays Dark Eldar.

I recently tied for third in our local GW store kill team event. My bf won, the jerk

Although I have to give some credit to one of the guys who lived on the same floor in college for introducing me to battletech years ago. (We all played with his stuff, and he had built his own board and everything.)

Hello! Welcome to Dakka Dakka!

Hi there! Battletech, thats a name I havn't heard in years...did you ever play the card game as well?

Anyhoo, welcome - please send in some photos of your fearsome tyranid swam.

Nope, just with the minis.

Although if risk counts as wargaming, I've been playing since I was a kid then...

Hi,

Welcome to Dakka

Welcome to the hobby! Always good to have new recruits to the hobby and fresh forces to crush-I mean, carefully nurture until they can defend themselves.

Hello!
