Personal Update

I am pleased to say that I am happy to have not updated over the weekend due to the fact that my family has grown by one this past week!  Gone to Ground Jr. was born Friday June 3rd and man is he awesome!  I hope to get back into blogging some more early this week, so stay tuned. For some interesting re-reading I am going to link a few of my more widely read posts.  I hope you enjoy this pseudo-post!

Why Long Fangs Are Just that Good

Another Day Another Dollar

I am a hobby fanatic.  I entered the universe of Warhammer 7 years ago with Warhammer Fantasy Battles.  My first, and still favorite, army was Dark Elves.  Since starting as a junior in college, I have also played Dwarfs, Woof Elves, Beastmen, and High Elves.

It wasn't until the end of 2009 that I finally "slummed it" and began playing 40k.  I don't know what I was waiting for!  I have really enjoyed play 40k and even though I have only been playing for just under a year, I have found it to be a truly tactical (although different from WFB) game and have enjoyed collecting and playing first a Black Templar army, then expanding that army to be played as a counts as Space Wolf army (I am a competitive player and this bandwagon was playing my tune.).  Currently I am also working on putting together a Master of the Forge led Codex Marine list that relies on 6 Dreadnoughts.

Not only do I love playing Warhammer, I really love the hobby aspect.  I currently paint professionally, though not as extensively as some do.  I have a day job.  I love putting together an army and enjoy wheeling and dealing to put together a solid army for cheap. 

Finally, an outflow of my love for the hobby is my desire to see it develop in my local community.  I love to throw tournaments and play in them.  It is my ambition to start a tournament series in 2011 for my local (Dallas, Texas, USA) gaming community. 

This blog will be where my ideas land after they have rolled around in my head long enough.  I hope you enjoy reading this and responding as well.
