So does anyone here play Warhammer 40k or Warhammer Fantasy?

I am a 40k vet but still some what new to fantasy though I do have a fantasy army. 

I'm willing to play anybody in either game.

I also would be willing to help anyone who is looking for a new game to get involved with either game and have previous experience in doing so.   

If people want any help on any aspect of the tabletop miniature wargaming hobby be it building and converting models (people tell me I am an expert in these respects), painting (I'm not a very good painter at all but am still willing to help in anyway I can), and of course gaming.

I play 40k and would certainly be interested in the occasional game.  I'm a new graduate student at Ohio State.

[Spleen Stabber]

Oh cool what armies do u play? and what's your relative experience idk in terms of years or whatever, I'm not trying to judge you or anything just curious and wanted to know if your new if I can help in any way 

[Exekias47]

I play Space Marines, Necrons, Imperial Guard, and Chaos.  I've been playing for about 10 years, so I'm not exactly new

[Spleen Stabber]

oh well u've been playing longer than me lol, what kind of marines?, and oo yes awesome I haven't played necrons in like 5 or 6 years lol I like the army and would love to see an update for them so they become more popular.  I kind of play a little bit of everything: (these are approximate point estimations: 2000pts of Tau, 5500-6000 pts of orks, 1000 pts of tyranids, 3000pts of Raven Guard with a grey knight contingent, 4000pts of csm mostly word bearers and death guard, 1250 pts of daemons, and I prlly have anywhere from 1250 -1500 pts of guard but they aren't playable yet as they are conversion heavey and I just recently poured all my time, money, and effort into my heavily converted word bearers and death guard csms, and then I have around 3000-4000 pts of fantasy High elves and a few wood elves, tomb kings, and eldar models thrown in too lol.

I would love to get some games together as most of my freinds who play 40k have moved away ( there is one on campus but I'm not sure if he plays anymore) and for somereason I haven't found myself being able to go to game nights at hobbyland sawmill, or the guard tower much anymore, I just hope this thread gets some more attention b/c honestly I'm sure there's enough people out there on campus who play to get a small club going it's just about getting the word out, so I might go ask a couple forums.

My space marines are just vanilla ultramarines (they were my first army, and don't all new players play ultramarines? )  My chaos are also death guard.  I have about 2000 pts for all four of my armies as that was the point value I generally played.  I also have an old armorcast baneblade, a plaguereaper I converted from one of the new plastic baneblades, a plaguetower I built from scratch and a warlord titan I built from scratch. 

[Spleen Stabber]

Yes sadly everyone plays ultra marines now, I h8 them so freakin' much, but ur cool with me cause u picked them up b4 they were the popular posterboys that every twelve year old plays.  The only super-heavy I have is a Stompa, so have u been playing recently like with the 5th ed rule book/ 5th ed sm codex and such

Ok. Personal Pet Peeve of mine here.

Please try to write well. You aren't sending a text to a high-school friend, you aren't posting an anonymous comment on a blog post; you are posting to a thread that is read by Real Life college students and graduates -  people you will be gaming with every week.

How you present yourself online - meaning the structure of your posts - is basically our first impression of you, and is the only part of you most of us will see during the week. Presentation matters.

I'm not suggesting essay quality writing, but use whole words, proper grammar, and turn on (and use) the spellchecker built into Firefox. It makes a big difference.

[Spleen Stabber]

Umm ok, I don't have firefox, and I truly wasn't paying much attention to what I was doing as I was busy doing other things, but I'll keep in mind that I must address everyone's personal "pet peeves."  Did you have anything else you would care to contribute, such as are you interested in playing 40k (sry 40,000) or Fantasy, looking for any helpful tips, or should I just let you continue to scour the forums for every exploitable minutia you can find?

[Thomas Kerwin]

I don't play 40k but:
In the Grim Future of HELLO KITTY there is only War.


I know that in past years there were always a couple people asking about Warhammer at OSU, so hopefully some of them can get together and play with you.

[Spleen Stabber]

Thank you, lol the hello kitty thing is great, and are you interested in getting involved, I mean it's not like I'm just looking for people who play, I think helping people get involved can be just as much fun, but if you aren't that's fine too 

[Thomas Kerwin]

No, I have barely enough time for the games I play already.

[BobChuck]

40k can only be improved by the addition of Hello Kitty.

[vede12]

I play dark angels and guard.

[Spleen Stabber]

cool we got one more then we should set up a game night occasion at some point any suggestions from the 2 people who play?
