Age: 34

Country/State: Cardiff, Wales, UK

Occupation: Artist, Teacher

Time spent in hobby: I started playing 40K in 1987, stopped for a LONG time and started again very recently, so you could say 21 years, or you could say 21 days!

Armies collected: The Puritans - 1x Tactical Squad, 1x Veteran Tactical Sqaud, 1x Elite Terminator Squad, 1x Fast Attack Squad (comprising 6x Bikes, 1x Attack Bike, 1x Land Speeder), 1x Support Rhino, 1x Company Commander, 1x Command Squad,1x Interrogator Chaplain, 1x Chaplain, 1x Librarian, 4x Elite HQ (Chapter Masters set).....so far!

Name: Lestat

Age: 25

Country/State: Great Britain

Occupation: Work for the Goverment

Time spent in hobby: At a rough guess, the last 14 years.........possibly.

Armies collected: Dark Angels, Blood Angels, Ordo Malleus, Ordo Hereticus

Make your mark: Been playing so long I can't remember exactly when i started. Over the years, the armies I have collected alongside my marines have been more along the lines of adding an "optional extra" to my Marines. For example, a few sacrificial Guardsmen platoons as part of a =I= contingent to soak up the charge of a few dozen xenos to allow an extra turn of rapid firing shooty bolter death! Or maybe a squad or two of power-weapon wielding shiny silvery daemon hunters teleporting into the middle of battle just when you need them.

Just got to disappear quickly before those pesky =I= start asking some very uncomfortable questions.................

Name: Brother Sapphon

Age: 17

Country/State: MA, USA

Occupation: Student

Time spent in hobby: Modelling/Painting - 2 to 3 months, interest in fluff - 4 years

Armies collected: Dark Angels - WIP

Make your mark: Have been very interested in 40k for a long time but never had any money to play. I have been playing Dawn of War since it came out which sparked my interest in the 40k universe, however, it was the Horus Heresy series that really made me want to go out and buy models. I finally got a bunch of models and am currently assembling a DA force but I am still a noob when it comes to playing (haven't really had a chance to settle into rules since I first bought the 4th edition rule book and then they announced the 5th was coming out lol). Also if you haven't noticed I LOVE the Dark Angels and their fluff.

Name: Scura ;)

Age: 37

Country/State: Germany /near Kiel up up in the north

Occupation: I am a full time Father for my little 20 month old daughter. Elisabeth 's her name. And in Jan 2009 i am a Father of my son Alexander too, hopefully.

Time spent in hobby: 10 years by now. Tested quite a lot with Dark Eldar and Tyranids and Chaos SM...

Armies collected: whole 3rd Company of Dark Angels, 1500pts Deathwing building up, some 1000+ pts Blood Angels in Blood Ravens colors, plus some Chaos but tend to convert them into Dark Angels too.

Make your mark: I was lost the last 4 years with the crappy C:SM and it's §$"§% Traitsystem i only painted some Blood Raven and never really played much. But now is 5th Ed W40K and a new hope rising. I found my Chapter finally - I am a Dark Angel by heart and so i got back to the painting table right enthusiastic and already finished my LRC in Deathwing style and have one Tact Squad 80% done...painting...painting...PAINting...

 

With all this confusion about 5th C:SM around it's quite annoying to love DA once more and having people go all nuts ranting...but i hope for the best and will be proud to field my DA anyway. Playing W40K wasn't all for the winning for me till I started. The Hobby is so much more! And only fielding my wonderful minis having people asking me to look at them really makes up for the lack of winning games - I have the nicer Army :)
