Hi all, having made a few posts already, I thought I should introduce myself :)

I'm from 'sunny' West Sussex, aged 47, and been wargaming and collecting miniatures since I was about 9. My first introduction to wargaming was from an aged friend of my fathers, who was seriously into Napoleonic wargaming. I then moved onto WW2 using C. S. Grant's "Battle" rules.

Since then it's been all sorts! 28mm fantasy, Romano-British, near future and sci-fi, 15mm AK47, sci-fi etc. Had a big thing with Warmaster Ancients a few years ago, which was when I first found Pendraken, and got the 10mm bug!

Having been painting/collecting mainly 28mm miniatures for the last few years, I'm now hooked on the VBCW thing, and whilst I will be using 28mm minis for small scirmishes, I will be using Pendrakens 10mm ninis for 'proper' battles :D

I'm also 'into' N scale model railways, and since converting from British to American modelling, I have lots of suitable buildings available for 1930-40s wargaming.

Anyway, enough rambling, seems a friendly place around here, and hope I'll have something to contribute.

Cheers,

Kev

Thanks guys  :)

I'm looking forward to my order of suitable VBCW minis to arrive to really kick off my return to 10mm. I'm off work following a knee op, so plenty of painting time available over the next couple of weeks  :D

Cheers,

Kev
