About Me

Hello fellow Wargamer and welcome to my next corner of the Blogodoohickey.

I've been wargaming for over 20 years now covering all sorts of periods from Ancients through to the 41st Millenium via ACW, Victorian Steampunk, Pirates, Napoleonic, The Old West and recently Marlburian.

During that period I've been attending events, campaigns and tournaments all over the country. Some have been excellent and frequently involve me signing up each year and some have been, well, not so good. So I thought I'd share my experiences with you all and blog about my event experiences including battle reports, pictures and anything else I can think of.

I started out with historical wargaming in about 1990 which was mainly Napoleonic with some Ancients thrown in for good measure. When we moved home in 1999 I needed to find other gamers and opted for Warhammer 40K as it is always easy to find other gamers. I guess Warhammer 40K is currently my favourite wargame and I have far too many armies for that particular system. As this site takes shape you'll no doubt see a heavy slant towards 40K but I'm hoping that this will change over time as we try out more of the many available wargames in the market.

I currently have armies for Dystopian Wars (Prussian Empire), Malifaux (Outcasts), DropZone Commander (Scourge), SAGA (Scots), Flames of War (Fallschirmjager) and Pulp City not to mention Cowboys for Legends of the Old West.
