Hi all,
My name is Robbie and have been introduced to the club via Andy Hills, who I work with. I'm really excited about having something like this not too far from me!
A bit about myself would help I guess! As well as the usual Fantasty Flight collection, I am a long time card game player and I have had great success - most notably with Magic the Gathering, where I played on the European Grand Prix circuit, regularly winning money! I had a great time, but GP Barcelona in February was my farewell after 8 years due to the birth of my second wonderful child! I have kept some budget bits to play with, but with work and family, the investment in MTG was just far too much. I just want to play for fun... which has led me to wargaming!
Like most, I played it a bit when I was younger and have recently been dabblig with the Dark Vengeance 40K set. All fun and games, and would like to learn more! However, the games that have caught my eye as I've been reading more have been these smaller skirmish games. Andy highly reccomends War Machine, so thought I'd give that a go!
We're just about to break up for half-term, so thought I might start down the club on Thursday 30th October? I have just this minute ordered a 15point Mercenary List for Warmachine (and all books/tokens etc...), so should make for a great little project to chill me out after a crazy half-term. Is there someone down there who could teach me how to play with a 15 point game or two?
I'm not an avid Facebook user - been stung by it before, but I'll use these boards and my email address in robbieferguson83@gmail.com
Thanks, and looking forward to meeting you all. My newly expanded family has settled now, so my gaming bug is well and truly back..............
Robbie
