Yes, you the one reading this, it’s time to give a brief introduction to my wargaming history. I started out in 2008 with Warhammer fantasy back during 7th edition. My first army was the Beasts of chaos, a glorious army that drew me in as the models appealed to me, as I’m sure most beginners do when they select their first army. Unfortunately, however the issue arose that at my local GW there wasn’t much of a Fantasy crowd at the time, so games were limited to introductions with the staff, eventually this led to me going into 40k choosing Tyranids before eventually settling into my newly discovered love of Games workshops overall franchise, Chaos.https://casualandthedamned.com/blog/prince/intro/Fri, 01 Apr 2022 00:00:00 +0000https://casualandthedamned.com/blog/prince/intro/Getting to Know You… I’m Ben, and casual is both absolutely correct and simultaneously way off the mark in many ways. I made my first ever model (a rather shockingly successful Airfix M1 Abrams) at 10 years of age. By secondary school I was deep into 40k with a Tau army, which changed to a guard army because I was persistently told ‘The Imperial Guard are useless’. By age 15 I discovered Forgeworld, the Vraks series, and that combined with a love of WW1 era imagery led me to becoming a Death Korps nut (a love preserved to this day in plenty of resin).https://casualandthedamned.com/blog/alpharius/intro/Wed, 30 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +0000https://casualandthedamned.com/blog/alpharius/intro/To Introduce Myself I am Alpharius. There we go, got it out of my system. Hello, my turn for an introduction. A little younger than most of the damned, my wargaming experience started back about 2009. After a brief initial foray into Fantasy with Lizardmen, my full Warhammer start with 40k began in mid-to-late 5th edition with Eldar, I loved the variety both in models and gameplay that came with the Aspect Warriors, though at the time most of these were still in metal.https://casualandthedamned.com/blog/tryhard/intro/Mon, 28 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +0000https://casualandthedamned.com/blog/tryhard/intro/An introduction of sorts Hi there! I appear to have been nominated as the resident evildoer on the team, despite there being traitor players running much less pleasant factions that I (looking at you James and the Night Lords). I started wargaming when I started secondary school in September of 2009, back in the glory days of 5th edition. I was drawn to Necrons at the time, purely because of the clear green rods in the guns, but also because I thought the monolith pyramid tank was super rad.
