Tyrannids 3000

Space wolves 1500

(lookin into dark eldars in teh future)

Fantasy

Vampire counts 1250

What is your favorite Army (either own or just like):

I love playing with my nids cause of my love 4 zerg in starcraft and the Aliens classic movies, and i like my spacewolves cause of the viking likeniss .... but till recently i never looked at dark eldar and i like them, and chaos daemons have beautiful models 2 my taste, but the Nids will be my top choice cause I just feel like there made 4 me :D

Fantasy - Originaly i was stuck deciding between lizardmen, vamp counts and dark elves. My best friend wanted lizardmen, so i went vamp counts, which once i started painting i realized how much i m happy 2 have chosen them. vamp counts is my army, especially after readin the army book. i just hope they add werewolves to the army in teh future :P

Am I a gamer, hobbiest, collector, or all:

hard to tell, cause the following comes through my mind:

I am deffinatly not a collector (dont care if its special edition or such) but certain thigns i MUST have. Like with my nids, i want every unit EXCEPT the pyrovore which is the worst unit.

I do love games, but I always do love 2 socialize and have cut down on buyin games and have managed 2 break the habbit of buyin 2 many games 2 finish and stop playing a game when a new game comes out. so not a gamer as i used 2 be, but whatever i play, i play my own style and achieve well with it, so i love the challenge of being a gamer.

Hobbiest - yes, I am a hobbiest, I love things that most wouldnt love.

Name: Ivan

Country of Origin: Philippines

Where do I live now: Dubai

How long have I played Warhammer: Just started for a few months.  Had a few 3rd ed games way back so that doesn't count.

How would you rate you play ability: On a scale of 1 - 10, I'd say at a 2 currently. I don't plan on being a noob forever tho.

Are you open to being contacted for gaming: Sure, I could use some practice as well as unit and rules familiarity!

What Armies do you have and how many points: Blood Angels 1.500+. Sold off some Space Wolves but I still have a bunch of bits at home!

What is your favorite Army (either own or just like): Blood Angels! But if I could find the time, will and the spare cash, I'd be starting up an IG army with Death Korps of Kreig models. 

Am I a gamer, hobbiest, collector, or all: I am a gamer first and foremost, I have played and won mageknight tournaments, Mechwarrior: Dark Age and Legend of the 5 Rings (ccg). I always yearn for a competitive game.  I am also a bit of a hobbyist in a sense that i am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to how my army would look like. Collector -- sure, as long as the model looks cool. I do have a huge collection of RPG books back home -- if that amounts to anything.

Hi all, 

I've just found your forum - found it on facebook of all places, I'm glad I'm not the only one in the ME that does this.

 

Name: That would be telling

Country of Origin: UK

Where do I live now: Bahrain - 5 glorious years!!!

How long have I played Warhammer: First got into it in 1994 with high elves, then went 40K with Imperial Guard.  Took a lot of time off and got back into painting earlier this year.

How would you rate your play ability: Considering how long I have been in the hobby, I've not really played much so I'd still consider myself as a beginner.

Are you open to being contacted for gaming: Once I have an army of sorts then yes

What Armies do you have and how many points: Back in the UK I have 3000pts of Tau still in boxes yearning for me to put them together and play.  Recently started looking at Black Templars, will have to get a small force put together soon.

What is your favorite Army (either own or just like): I do like the Eldar - they're just so pretty

Am I a gamer, hobbiest, collector, or all: I'm a collector and painter more than gamer, but I'd like that to change.  I have a hill (not yet a mountain) of metal and resin minis to paint

Comment: I'm also moving in to Warmachine.  The new plastic/resin models look fantastic.  Have the rules and have the minis on order.
