Leonis Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Hey guys, So I've been into the hobby since Rogue Trader. My old man got me started and since he doesn't game any more I inherited his paint/bits box. It still makes me laugh when I pull out an old part from RTB01, or an old lead space marine on a jetbike, out of my bits box to show a new player and then realize the mini is older than they are. :) I've played on and off throughout the various editions, my last army was Grey Knights in 5th Ed, but now I'm getting back into gaming properly again with the release of 6th and I'm starting back with my original army. My old man always collected Space Wolves so naturally as rebellious little kid I took up Dark Angels. I'm looking to pick up some tactics and gaming advice and get some inspiration from peoples painting and modelling here on the forums. So yeah, thats me. Nice to meet you all. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258267-returning-angel/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Nice to meet you! It is nice to see so many people from the RT-era and 2nd ed. coming back to the hobby.

Olis Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Indeed. It seems to be an increasingly common occurance. :) Hail and welcome to B&C, brother! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258267-returning-angel/#findComment-3149488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonis Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 Thanks for the welcome guys. :) Yeah I think 2nd Ed was my favourite. You got loads of books, templates, scenery and shed loads of miniatures. Okay so most of them were push fit clone gretchin but it was a great game and they even sold it in Argos. Good times. :woot: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258267-returning-angel/#findComment-3159495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Heart_69 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 If you're coming back to the hobby, haven't got a rulebook yet, and are still interested in Dark Angels, make sure to get a box of the new starter set. Welcome back and have fun! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258267-returning-angel/#findComment-3159927 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonis Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 Already have a boxed set on pre-order. ;) There was no way I was missing out on that Interrogator Chplain! I decided to use the box set to build up my Dark Angels again so I had a rummage through my old stuff and my bits box and pulled together over a thousand points of Angels that I didn't know I had. With the boxed set I should be able to field a decent sized army again. It will feel weird after playing Grey Knights in 5th and Imperial Guard and Nids before that. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258267-returning-angel/#findComment-3159963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
