Hello everyone.

I am a 51 year old on and off again wargamer that has played and painted for many years and yet still suck at painting.....    I recently bought the Warband rules and plan to purchase numerous fantasy armies as well as 10mm AWI as soon as the Uk Postal situation clears up.  I have a lot of orders to other companies in the UK and they are taking way longer than before to the point I cant even remember what is still out there and what I have.....   So yeah going to avoid the headache of ordering until the Postal thing gets fixed one way or the other.    I have zero interest in any kind of politics and have zero opinions

Well there's your problem. I reset my hobby in 2013. Threw out everything I had - 6mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm - and decided to redo everything in 10mm. Pendraken offered just about everything I needed (chariot armies not withstanding) and now I couldn't be happier!
 

I have gotten rid of all of my larger scale stuff.  I still have my 1/72s and spencer smiths because its more for collecting than for gaming.   But I switched to 6mm and was thrilled.  Then I saw little wars TV do an AWI battle with Pendraken 10mm and at a convention I saw 10mm pendraken used for King or Empress rules for SYW.   So now I am going to be doing fantasy, AWI and whatever else in 10mm!   Probably still do what I am doing with the 6mm stuff too to be honest.   I kind of group 6 and 10 together as the micro scale stuff and really like the looks of it.   This website is amazing and I heard Leon on the Gods own scale podcast and he sounded like an awesome guy and one I would like to support!

Hi Bradley, welcome to the Forum!

Very kind! 

Hi Bradley, welcome to the forum!

The UK postal/ delivery system is certainly weird at the moment. Odd things are arriving sooner than I'd normally expect, most stuff is slightly delayed, some massively delayed for no obvious reason and some stuff just goes into the warp and never re-emerges. Massively frustrating.

Still, it gives you time to read the rules and plan some armies.

The AWI armies are lovely .... I really, really don't need another unpainted army!

Also, I'll second Leon being awesome. As are Adele and the rest of the Pendraken team!

And very accurate

Interestingly, things are getting through to me pretty quickly here in Thailand!

Welcome, Brad, and regards to Janet.

The AWI games on Little Wars TV are very impressive - and the AWI range is one of the best! I'm still resisting this.

Do I approve of more colonials ? WElcome Brad

See you've met my
Faithful handyman.
He's just a little brought down
Because when you knocked
He thought you were the candy man."

Don't get caught out,
By the way I look...

Great welcome thank you everybody so much.  I apologize but who is Janet?  Well I am itching to have a go at 10mm so forget the nonsense I said about waiting.....I am going to order something in the next few minutes....  Nothing huge, enough to satisfy my cravings, yet small enough the wife wont kill me    She supports my projects, but she doesnt support my spur of the moment random purchases...
