Hi All,

As I have been accused of being a 'Lurker' I would like to introduce myself and tell you a little about my tabletop Background.

I started like many others when the 'Battle games in Middle-Earth' magazines 1st came out and after the Frodo edition came out, (3rd magazine?) a friend showed me to Games-workshop there my love for the hobby and the Trilogy sky-rocketed. I started with Lotr SBG, then a little spout of 40k, then Fantasy and bouncing back and forth between the 3. Finally in 2007 I stopped collecting due to having other interests but my un-dying love for LOTR Trilogy still burned and Other works of Tolkien.

It was only until the 1st hobbit movie came out that it re-kindled my love for the tabletop hobby, So I started to find out if there where any of the old community's around. I remember finding this forum in it's infancy stage so I looked it up and I found it.

So for the past year and a bit I have been dropping in and out looking up tutorials etc. slowly building up a Gondor and a Galadhrim army. Not really feeling I could make a decent contribution I never made an account.

Until last November I decided I could join in with discussions etc, but then unemployment took me and the hobby had to go on the back-burner till I could get my feet back on the ground.

Then recently I have managed to sort my life out enough to start again, and therefor I have picked up the paintbrush and tape measure once more.

I do hope to be part of this community and join in discussions with like minded people.

Kind Regards,

Welcome aboard Anduril Here's to some awesome games to be played

In my opinion, any contribution is a decent contribution. Keep posting!

Yeah welcome. Even a contribution of asking questions is good because it reminds us all or shows us rules we didnt know!

Welcome (again) to the hobby; I started -like you did- when BGiME came out. This forum has proved a great companion to the hobby for me; I hope it will prove the same to you.

I came from a similar sort of background, though from Fantasy to 40k to LotR. I too gave up collecting for quite a while but had never lost my love of Lotr or the SBG

I have found this site to be extremely helpful, dont be afraid to ask questions, even if you think they might be silly or obvious. There are a lot of very helpful and encouraging members with a great wealth of knowledge, but never make you feel foolish for asking.

and finally: Welcome back!
