Hello folks,

I am from near Hanover in Germany and new to Pendraken and the forum.
My first 10 mm miniatures ever are from the AWI range. I must say, that I am really impressed by the detail possible for such small miniatures.

Started painting them already  :D

Cheers, Steffen

Welcome Steffan

The quality of the figures is only exceeded by the insanity of the forum members

Herzlich willkommen , Herr Steffen . Gut zu weiteren Rekruten in die Pendraken Internationalen Brigade treffen !. Leider " Orks " ist richtig. Ihre geistige Gesundheit kann nun in Gefahr sein !  8-}

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Hi Steffen,

as you may have gathered from the posts above, the forum is friendly, informative and lunatic by turns. I'm sure you'll enjoy the time you spend here!

Welcome to the Forum, Sir.

Don't understand why, but every time we get a new member, people post some right gibberish. Could be a foreign language for all I know!

Personally I never saw the attraction of the dastardly American Insurrection. Do you think you could be persuaded to a more acceptable form of gaming? I can personally recommend the American Civil War range, and WWII, and medieval, and Marlborough's Wars and the Dark Age.

The Centurion tanks are particularly lovely.
