Hello all.
#1
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!

Thanks one and all for the warm welcome. By the way no one can pester like me so you have been warnedSmile Manrouge, My tastes tend to cover quite a range of areas, so here goes:

As a sci-fi/fantasy fan then Warhammer - both the games, and the lord of the rings games (as an aside I quite enjoy painting the models, though not to a particually good standard) I find interesting.

From my military modeling I'm finding that I am becomming more and more intrested in the ECW and Nepolonic eras.

So there's plenty to keep me occupied!
