Now this is the story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down Wait, no, that's not it. So I'm the oldest one, 17 of age, and I also like to consider myself to be the one with the poorest sense of humor. Anyface, about me. I started the hobby in the golden year of 2009 and ever since I've set my sights on painting the most awe-isnpiring-est figures. I do play, some days, but mostly I like to sit back and put a brush in my mou- erm, paint... Yes, paint. I'm also thinking about doing this small chapter that hates the Ultras and absolutely abhors the Codex Astartes. Oh, and they're successors of the Ultra Mahrunes. So, that's a project. And speaking of projects, I undertook repainting an old Night Goblin that I found at the clubhouse. It's been just sitting there on a shelf and I know it's not a decoration because a) I've been going there for the past like 5 years and b) I funded the set it belongs to aanndd c) it was painted like shit. So, I took it in my loving fingers and painted the life out of it. I think it looks nice now, but I ain't even finished with it. And that is me, a 17-year-old who enjoys painting even more than these two here. I'll make some posts of my own about my numerous, simultaneous projects but now i shall pass the ball to the other two.

P.S: Join the team MaGGoT if you wish to not get shot in the fa- oh, did I type that. I meant, join my team if you like tacos. And salsa. And the smell of paint. And dakka. Lots of the D.

So its my turn then? Well i´ve been in to this hobby for quite some time, maybe 4 years in now. I am the youngest of the group, still the most veterannest(thats a word now!) of the group. I started the hobby with Chaos space marines and it has been stuck since. I also play Warriors and Deamons of Chaos and Necrons, but i have my own chapter, Raven Guard based, underway. As painter i am very lazy, seeing how most of my army are undercoated or grey. But now comes the question, why chaos? Because good is dumb! No but seriously i like close combat, and if you do, Forces of  Chaos are your men. But about me. I am a tournament player, yet pretty laid back kind of gamer. While writing lists i can see some unit, giggle about it, and build entire army around it, just for khorne´s sake. I play both FaBa and 40k and there have been some awards i have earned. So join Team Eric today and get free gift from the gods of chaos.

Gretchin Analysis: Simo (a.k.a. Simson)
Armies: Eldar, Blood Angels
HQ of choice: Reclusiarch
Unit of choice: Dire Avengers
Own quote: "Lazy painter, lousy player."

So where to begin... The middle-child of our group, I'm turning 17 in few days (yippee!) and youngest in the world of wargaming. A little over a year ago Maggot recommended this hobby for me. Gave it a try, got hooked, and began spending hundreds of euros to GW. I'm not yet entirely sure should I curse or bless Maggot for doing this. However, after few weeks I decided what to do with my new Marines I bought: paint them red! (Because red is a cool colour) What next: I should decide what to play them as. Well, who doesn't love blood drinking maniacs with affection to close-combat? A few Tau-players raised their hands now, but it doesn't matter. I love them and even after starting my new army (Eldar), the Winged Maniacs still hold a special place in my heart... (Speaking of which, I'm working on a BA-successor chapter that loves bikes, but I'll return to it later). As an impulsive player I often make mistakes of an amateur so please forgive me. Maybe one day I'll do better... one day...

So in summary: if you want to watch my Blood Angels flying trough the skies with bloody blades in their hands or sneaky Eldars with army list that's not based on 5-10 Wave Serpents, join me in the Team Simson and be on the side of the weak guy! (Propably worst speech ending ever.)
