So this chap ws in white dwarf this month at WHW playing AoS.

My mate's are like 'ye in white dwarf' except! its not me!

Does anyone know this guy with the beard?

.. gonna move this to d.discussions, as it is -- sorta -- wargaming related.

.. best of luck !

That's funny because my doppelganger was also once pictured in whitedwarf as well but back in the late 80s. Can't recall the particular number.

But I am used to it these days. I have multiple clones running about. Same first, middle, last name, similar interests.. had subs to both WD and other mags of completely different types that all were the same as me.
I've seen pictures of some of them and.. yes we look like siblings, not quite cones.. but eerily similar. .....

Was it at an event or open gaming - might help narrow it down.

Happens all the time. Don't be worried since it really was other you.
Besides they misspell Berenstain Bears (like this) in that guy's reality.

When I go out into public places it is amazing to me how many people look like people I know, but aren't those people.

Was actually in white dwarf many years ago in a dawn of war screening at games day.

Chonky guy with a beard playing toy soldiers? Yup, really narrows the search down.

Our genepools are getting shallow. Time to start splicing, uplifting and/or finding aliens.

It was a total shot in the dark like firing grots at a knight

Green ones, with tentacles... ?

I dont know what to say. Its fascinating that you got doppelganger but its creepy too. Well good luck!

I remember one time my buddies called me over, my doppleganger was standing across the store reading a magazine. I mean even I admitted it.

I was afraid to talk to him, we might have to kill each other.

Wait...Kid Kyoto, there was another samurai in black and white wearing an I heart NY shirt in the store with you? Did the universe collapse?...oh wait..avatar...my bad.

Yeah but if you'd kill him first then you'd get the quickening or something.

George R. R. Martin once said that if you dropped him into his native terrain he could vanish like a ninja... wargaming conventions.
