Name: Benoit
Armies:
40K: Eldar 12,000+, Salamanders, 2,000+, Orks 2,000+.
WFB: I've been trying to start wood elves since the new line came out. I have about 2000pts of them in various stage of assembly, but I just can't seem to get into painting them. Maybe if I played a game...

I owned most armies in one way or another, including Chaos, Sisters of Battle, Grey Knights,Tau, Imperial Guard, but in a bid to focus on a few armies and actually get them to a playable state I've sold the aforementionned armies in the last year or so.

I am a father of three with more projects than time to bring them to fruition. I've been playing since 3rd ed.

RL: In real life I am Production Manager at Hill Times Publishing. Where I oversee the publication of two newspapers (The Hill Times and Embassy) and generally run the production department (the whole 3 of us. lol)

Current Project: Scratch together enough money for my FW fix, and paint over 30 Orks for Game Summit in 2 weeks... :o

No, seriously, can someone pin this thread? Otherwise it'll get lost in a sea of awesome, and none of our newbie friends will ever be known to us!

Name: Trent Lanthier
AKA: Trent :P (Well Karlesh if you play WoW on Thorium Brotherhood)
Playing Since:2008 ... yeah I'm a late bloomer
Armies Played: I'm mainly into Marines toss up between Ravenguard, Black Legion.
Possible Future Armies: Imperial Guard
RL Profession: I'm in IT for the Federal Government
Age: 33

Every since highschool I've enjoyed the concept in the game, but after my wife finally called my bluff of "One day I want to get a little workshop and take up painting 40k mini's" I finally had to buy some and see if I could actually paint them... which I'm not too bad at... though Marines are stupid easly to make look decent...

So now I've got way too much for a guy who has NEVER played a game ... (well unless grade 8 counts as playing a game... like 14 years ago) hell I don't really even know what I have anymore...

Armies: 40K - Raven Guard Space Marines (seemed like the obvious choice)

I only just started about a month ago. Once I get the basic tactics of RG down I'll start looking into the other armies for ideas.
Plan B? Does running away while blindly shooting behind you count?

Although I'm not in Ottawa (I'm from Toronto), I always come here for my 40K fix, as this is probably the best 40K community on the net! I'm a huge fan of miniature games. 40K was my first, but I'm also currently playing Warmachine, Hordes, Monsterpocalypse, World of Warcraft minis, and Confrontation. I love the GW skirmish games, with the long-lost GorkaMorka being my favourite. I'm also looking at maybe getting into Warhammer Fantasy, Infinity, and Heavy Gear Blitz, if I can find anyone in Toronto to play with.
