Thought I would say hello to you all. I live not too far from redditch and have recently discovered an intrest in wargaming after more years than I care to remember modeling 1/35th armour. Mainly this has come about after being roped into helping my son paint Warhammer 40k figures and tanks, which lead to me "having a go" at the game. However I have found my intrest has become more about the idea of actual rather than imagined armies so thought I would drop in and find out what I can. Be prepared for LOTS of questions!
