Newbie on the block says hiya!
« on: October 27, 2014, 07:01:02 AM »
Heya everyone! =3
My name is Adli, and I am from a very small country in Southeast Asia, called Brunei.
Trouble with peaceful lil' Brunei, is the lack of miniatures as a hobby, so there is no local hobby places tailored to this wonderful (and expensive X3) hobby. And coupled that with my lack of experience (gaming only for the last 3 years, even at smaller amounts and with a club - when I was in the UK for university)
I dabbled in the various systems that primarily revolves around skirmishes and RPGs (and RPG-skirmishes), and sometime Platoon level games (but rarely as I don't really have a substantial force for that size). Basically it all depends on the miniatures I have available - now with my focus at going further back into history from Sci-fi and Modern.
Hope to be a valuable member of this forum!
If in the unlikely event of locals residing on this forum, hit me up, as I am always on the lookout for interested people.

Apologies if I blabber alot. Kinda not too used to forums in general - as in rarely ever go on them.

Welcome home to the world of tabletop gaming, Adli. In times of web shops to provide and post hobby stuff to the most remote places on earth and Lead Adventure Forum where you will find information about actually everything gaming-related, Brunei does not seem to be too far away...  :D

Haha, thank you for that, Michi! Good to get back into this.
Yesh, online shops helped ALOT especially with getting stuff unavailable here.
The material site is covered by the glorious interweb, but its the players that's gonna be hard.
Just waiting until the advent of AI's that can go toe to toe on the tabletop! :D
This place have been a wonderful source of inspiration and knowledge - especially with the hobby site of things.

Nah, all logic and no fun. Seeing the look on the face of an opponent when you perform some ingenious or devious move/action is priceless.  ;D

Oh, and a harty welcome, btw  8)

That would probably be true, ;D. Would make for some fun in Coop games for sure.
And thank you for the welcome! 8)
