It's feels good to be back! I too will be chronicling my re-entry into the gaming world of Warhammer 40K. It's going to be an uphill battle. Gaming in South Florida is lacking as of late but I think that HyenaDave and myself can take it back in the name of the Immortal Emperor.
I was introduced into tabletop 40k gaming by HyenaDave. I spent many hours painting minis. It's been a while since I painted but I recently set up my painting table up again. Its all about the details when it comes to painting minis.
My first army were the Dark Angels. A whole chapter of antisocial, broody, ill-tempered Space Marines! What's not to love! They have some of the best fluff as well. I could never buy enough of those robed Space Marines.
My second army were the Necrons. I bought a huge army of from Neil and his Warstore back when he had this famous army deals. Soulless metallic horror from an ancient past. I just loved the "We'll Be Back" rule. They just swept the battlefield in a mindless murderous rampage. This army actually lead me back to the Space Marines.
Third Army, Iron Hands! Space Marines that frenetical following of the Machine Cult and hatred of the flesh is only shadowed my their extreme loyalty to the God Emperor.
Forth Army, the Tau. This army in mainly unassembled and unpainted. I do have a small force put together. I actually never fielded them. That's when HyenaDave and I took our break form gaming. I blame women and EVE Online. The Tau do remind me of the Sleestak from the Land of the Lost.
Fifth Army. Vanilla Space Marines. This is around the time that the Witch Hunters and Daemonhunters Codex came out. I made a force of Vanilla Space Marines lead by an Inquisitor Lord. Depending on my mood It would be a radical inquisitor with a force of Relictors Space Marines or a puritan inquisitor with my beloved Grey Knights.
I plan to retool and rebuild my Dark Angels along with my Vanilla Marines. I tend to use a combined arms tactics that I learned from my military days. It's worked for me so far but I need more armor. I'm going add it to my wish list that my girlfriend is asking for. I plan on posting pictures soon. I'm building a picture light box so I can post them.
I am a Zombie Hunter. I carry a battle axe in my car and I have built up an arsenal over the years. The Zombie Survival Guide is my holy bible. I have a plan and I'm ready for when they rise! I tend to go on rants somestimes. Just bare with me folks. I do have big plans for this blog. As soon as I have some free time I'll get rid of this default layout. I hate it! Maybe this will lead to to the podcast HyenaDave and I have always talked about doing.
Tabletop gaming in Miami, Florida! You gotta love it!
I'm off. The IT Crowd reruns is on TV. UK television is so much better than US. The American version of "Life on Mars" is terrible!
