Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum, having only discovered it recently when I bought on impulse the SM1 boxed set on eBay. Then an Imperial Guard box. Then some Leman Russes. Then some titans. You get the picture!

That's absolutely how I am feeling at the moment.
I was brought up on board games and have been playing 40K and Fantasy since the early 90s, also Necromunda, Dreadfleet, Space Hulk, Blood Bowl (WAAAAAGH!), and more recently Kings of War, X-Wing and Dreadball. Unfortunately through lack of regular opponents, I end up spending most of my time painting whatever takes my fancy out of the large number of unpainted models in the cupboard (that's large as in large, not large as in primarchload-filling-the-whole-house-large).
I used to play a lot of videogames and read historical novels extensively, but with work intruding on my spare time, I've realised that the Hobby is the most satisfying hobby I have.
Other than that, and thank you for reading this far, I love playing and listening to music (Dragon Force, Ghost - new Meliora album is fantastic! -, Sonata Arctica, Nightwish, also mediaeval music and madrigals), going to the gym, and coming up with dozens of unfinished ideas for board games and novels.
