Warhammer 40K
 

Any fans of the 41st Millennium?

Never heard of it, sorry.

You should check it out. Tabletop wargaming and hobby. Basically several different armies, units come as plastic kits you build, customize, and paint. Rulebooks, scenery etc. Ive got a bunch of people around here who collect and play over a few beers. I have a 6x4 game table in my man cave for such occasions.

I got into it via Heroquest and Space Crusade in the early 90's and dropped out in the late 90's.

Back in 09 I got into it again, and started painting up my old miniatures.
I'm not into the current game and or the plastic minis though, I like
40k "second edition" and 80's 90's miniatures (metal)

I used to play Battle Masters without realizing it was Warhammer. My folks splurged on that but not Hero Quest :)

What do you have for minis? If you tried to send me a pic it didnt come through. I used to have a huge Black Templar army until they were rolled into Codex: Space Marines and I sold em off. I now have a crap ton of Orks. Maybe 90-120 Boyz, full Green Tide. Im starting to fill out the other slots. I have a painted Battlewagon in need of a Deffrolla, and a salvage wagon that needs repair. Bunches of other units but what I really want to get into is Nob Bikes. Ive also got a start on some Iron Warriors. Ill be sure to post pics when Im home.

(Painted) I have a big Goff Ork army

But I also have LOTS of the other Ork clans, a genestealer cult, about 3 armies worth of Space Wolves and a large Blood Angel force (unpainted, mostly)


And here's some Heroquest stuff

Holy crap you have SQUATS?!!? You sir are sitting on a goldmine. I love v1 Ghaz; Id love to get my hands on his lil grot buddy for my own Mega Armor Ghaz.

I got into collecting at the start of high school. That stuff was amazing, you could spend hours and my armies were like little works of art to me. My space wolves are still with me, albeit stored away in a box. I still have fond memories of it, what really stays with me is that ultra dark and gritty background.

Anybody into heroclix or Star Wars miniature game?
