OK, I decided to create a blog to document my finished projects and to discuss any games I play. My intended audience is me so if you find anything here entertaining great, want to leave comments even better.
My history with Warhammer 40K. If we get in the way back machine we come to a time shortly after I discovered Battletech when Space Hulk came out.
(OK maybe not when it came out but when it reached the backwoods of Louisiana where I grew up 1988). That summer My friends and I took over the dinning room of my parents house and did not come out until school started... and that is how my on / off again relationship began with 40K.
The following year I got the rouge trader rule book and we combined it with Space Hulk to form a kind of house rules game centered on small units. This is based on the first rule of warhammer, when you have the time you don't have the money. Conversely when you have the money you don't have the time.
Anyway that got me to col ledge and we picked up additional games of epic (Space Marine) and Bloodbowl but the fact that we started to get busy with life put gaming on the back burner. I got married and took a 10 year break.
Finally when 4th addition came out I got the bug again and started a S.O.B. army. (Never finished/ Never played a game) followed by a Ultra Marine Army / Nid army with the release of Battle for Mccage. By this point my son was old enough to start playing. (sucks to get beat by an 8 year old)
Now a few years later Black Reach and 5th edition came out and I've got the bug again. The new plastic orks are out and I've started my 4th army, Orks. From here we will just see what happens. Maybe I'll remember to play a game or two sometime.
