My Warhammer Addiction
I have been playing warhammer for over three years now. I
started with 40K, dabbled in Battlefleet Gothic and have
come now to Warhammer Fantasy.
In 40K, I started with the Blood Angels mainly because I had
already started painting my marines red and especially
because I loved the Furioso dreadnought model. I have
graduated to the Space Wolves where I learned a little more
how to paint. I dabble a little in the 13th Company, but I
have to use regular marines because my wife really doesn't
like depictions of evil stuff in the house. (She's half
Irish, ie. superstitious, and half Dutch, ie. stubborn about
it. In other words, I play "good guy" armies)
I chose the Cult of Ulric as my first fantasy army after a
lot of fluff reading. I was looking through back issues of
White Dwarf, when I stumbled onto the Cult of Ulric list.
Cool! Fantasy era Space Wolves. I am really enjoying the
flavours of this list and I especially enjoy the converting
and painting of an army that has few pictures available.
My
latest craze has been the Inquistion. I've been slowly
building and painting Daemonhunters and Exorcists Space
Marine armies. I know that you may have seen pictures of red
Exorcists all over the place, but this is just
disinformation placed by the Inquisition. I've painted mine
in their true grey colours! ;-) This also lets me borrow a
rhino or two from the Wolfie guys when needed without it
seeming too much out of place.
