Hello and thanks for having me!
I've been a long time lurker on several forums over the years but decided to join here as a motivator for me as this seems the most "focused" of the wargaming fora.
I'm actually a lapsed railway modeller
, but rising costs of that hobby are inadvertantly giving more time to actually commit to a return to some gaming projects.
Been buying rulessets and reading things for a few years now, but in that time have only played one game of Force on Force, oh dear.
The rather cruel shots below are my first painted squad of US infantry,(last thing I painted was some citadel space marines, years ago). I thought theres no point wargaming if I can't paint to a standard that I want. These guys look better at normal viewing distance honest, so mean I'm here to stay.
Interests are primarily WW2, but cant choose between Bolt Action, Rules of engagement or CoC, so will probably play all 3 as the mood takes me. (Pointe du Hoc scenarios with ROE at the mo.) Oh and Battle of Britain with Bag the Hun rules is another embryonic project.
On the workbench at the moment are a box of Warlord US Rangers and an Ivatt Tank Engine (split hobby personality!).
Future posts wont be so rambling I promise.
If there are any WW2 gamers nearby (Taunton)it would be great to hear from you.
Cheers,
Matt
