Intro To Me

Good morning everyone!

Alright, so I used to post on the Specialist Games forums back in the day, but have been out of the hobby for... about a year... year and a half maybe?

Since people care about the hobby here I'll start there! I've been into WHFB since I was in middle school and stumbled upon a Games Workshop in a mall. So I've been hooked for about... 10 years? Off and on of course.

I play Orcs and Goblins in WHFB (but haven't even bought the new edition since I've been out of it) with plans of adding Dwarves to the roster as soon as I can afford it.

I got into WH40K about 4 years ago, working on building a Tyranid army there.

Mordheim is something that I've tried continually to get into but been constantly stopped at every turn. The nail in the coffin was when my local GW store closed and I would have had to drive 2 hours in order to play so I dropped out of the hobby all together for... as I said a year and half.

Recently I moved and my current fiancee was interested in BFG, which lead me to the new GW website... which by the way... sucks... It's slow and poorly designed in my opinion. However this brought Mordheim up into my face again and I'm interested in attempting to find or form a group to play... only issue is is that I'm once again most likely going to have to drive 2 hours @_@

Alright, the name, Emoge, is one I rarely use for games such as this, it is based off a DnD joke character and kind of stuck. Emoge the Emo-mage, the necromancer that could only find love in the dead. Normally my generals and leaders of the orc variety go by the name of Teethhammer, and I contemplated using that as my avatar, but... decided it gave off the wrong vibe.

Mordheim-wise, I prefer to play Orcs and Goblins (although I've never been able to play for mor than 3 weeks at a time... which puts a damper on the whole campaign experience... Darn the Old Gods for giving me horrible luck with finding groups!) However, if I ever found a steady group I am positive I would build a possessed warband as a secondary warband.

Well, I suppose that's long enough of a description, and I hope there aren't too many typos since I'm typing this in IE so no auto spellchecker... oh well! Nice to meet you all.

YET ANOTHER Man who's discerning taste in the finer things of life has led him to the WONDERS of Orcs & Goblins. You are TRULY WELCOME ABOARD, Pilgrim!

May you have a LONG & MERRY stay here on Our Fearless Leader Tom's Yet-Ever-So-Cool Mordheim Forum.

Thanks for the in-depth intro; it's a pleasure to meet you.

Welcome!! Have fun!

This is pure genius!

Welcome to the forums and good luck finding a Mordheim group! The more the merrier, but my group consists of just 2 others (with a 4th joining in for a game or two once in a blue moon), so you don't need too many to play. To ensure we don't get sick of each other, each of us has 3 or 4 warbands we run.

I might as well say this so that numerous others don't have to:
Show us pics of your warband over in the gallery! If you don't have one written up for mordheim, still show us your orcs and gobbos.

Enjoy your stay.

Hehe I would LOVE to show you my orcs and goblins (not the best since they were mainly painted back when I was like 14-15... other than the converted heroes and black orcs) as well as my tyranids (which have the awesome metallic Japanese beetle color scheme) but... I don't own a digital camera And my webcam is crappy and makes large human sized things blurry, much less little minis.

Welcome man.

Hope you enjoy your stay with us.

Best wishes.
