I am John and I play with my son Joshua.

We just got a Space Wolf army built for Joshua. Hopefully, we will have it painted and ready for combat on 2/19/2010.

I finally finished building all of the Space Marine units we got for Christmas. These include a command squad, a bike squad (I have a second I just started building), a techmarine and servitors, an extra tactical squad and some land speeders, including a land speeder storm. I also finished up my 10 man squad of assault termies. I also added some additional tanks (vindicator, predator and another razorback) that I hope to get built this week.

I picked up an air brush, so getting the base down on my units takes very little time. Of course, details still take as long as they take. Hey, isn't that what this hobby is all about--spending lots of time working on the details of your army...making it look and fight better.

I hope to have pictures available in the not too distant future.

Why it's the great and almighty SegmentumMichigandus. Any post you see by that user, consider it the voice of God...at least of these forums.

Mike W here. For those who don't know me, I play the Khorne / Tzeentch alliance of Chaos Daemons in the escalation league. You can tell my Daemon army from Jeff's by the fact that his are generally better painted than mine, but mine are sillier than his. Look for the Lord (of Change) of the Seventies or the ork-pulled Chariot of Tzeentch and I won't be far away.

Daemons are my second army, and the Tau are still my favorite. When league play wraps up, my green and silver Tau will most likely reappear.

Hey everyone, my name's Ken. I have a Dark Eldar army but I got sick of not having armour so I'm in the middle of switching my army up to the space marines... and here I sit in front of my computer gluing my last new terminator up before I take off for work. :-)

Hi! I'm Caleb. I like long walks on the beach, candle-lit dinners, and....

Wait...wrong place for that...hmm.

I've been playing 40k for a long time now, but I've been out of the loop since a little before 5th edition came out. In trying to get my love for Warhammer back on track, I've decided to try something new, and I've started building a Skaven army for Fantasy. Strangely enough, it is my 13th year of being involved in Warhammer in some way shape or fashion, so I feel this is a good year to start Skaven :)

I hope to get this army going, and maybe dust off my guardsmen and getting back into 40k as well. Hopefully I'll find some time to trek out to Grandville and see what's happening some time soon.

Sweet more guard. We must form an alliance for the campaign. Makes sense fluff wise.
