About Myself

I (SuperioR) started collecting WH40k miniatures 10 years ago when I was 14 years old. Bought the 3rd edition starter set that included Space Marines and Dark Eldar, but started to collect Space Marines as I thought they looked cooler.

I only painted miniatures and created terrain back then, because I just had one other friend who collected WH40k and we didn't really grasp the rules. I remember trying to play a game that actually lasted over two days, as we both had to read through the BGB all the time.

After a while I lost interest in the game, but I started to collect again in 2008. This time I managed to 'recruit' a friend (as he had been playing fantasy). And after he got into 40k, several others also started to play. I'm guessing its easier to find people to play with now that we're all older and have money of our own to use on the expensive hobby that is WH40k.

I now have just over 6000p of Space Marines and 2000p (unpainted) Iyanden Eldar.

My Marines are vehicle heavy and the Eldar are almost the opposite by only being on foot.
I got most of my marines from the starter sets, and then bought more vehicles to add to the army.

My Eldar army is going to be painted by my girlfriend, as she likes to paint but doesn't care about the gaming aspect. I decided to get Iyanden Eldar as I really enjoy the fluff aspect of them.

My friends that I play most of my games with are:

Goggy - Necrons (And looking at Tau/Space Wolves for his second army)
MuppFan - Tyranids / Sisters of Battle
Tompa - Orks / Chaos Space Marines

Oh and I also created the HAMulator application, which you can download from http://hamulator.genostech.com . However I haven't had time to support it as I have lots of other things to do on my spare time. So hopefully it works for you, even though there are some small bugs.
