My Warhammer army is (mostly) Night Goblins at about 1600pts. I got most of it on the cheap from ebay or for free from mates and models donated to the club I'm part of (which is also where I got my ~750pt marine "army"). If you want my advice of which of the two armies (tomb kings or ogre kingdoms) you should collect it's probably worth noting that I've seen more beginners with efficient ogre armies that they can have a good game with than I have tomb kings. If you want an army that pisses everyone right the fuck off though you should go for one of the flavours of elf (my bane is wood elves who can kill the shit out of me at great range before I've had a chance to do dick).

I think you can buy a big starter box of goblins and dwarves, designed to help beginners get into the game. I understand tomb kings are quite complex, but if you can get them right (i.e. their normal infantry troops are quite fragile although can be revived, whilst they do have some hard-hitters like ushabti or chariots) they can really cause people some annoyance what with being undead and all. I also had a short-lived interest in wood elves because their style necessitates guerrilla tactics, which I think is cool, but I still find TK (and used to find vampire counts, but since they got revamped their overpowered and therefore for noobs b/c of the blood knights, so I heard) really cool. I think I actually find the modeling and painting side a bit more enthralling than the actual strategies and tactics of battling though, so maybe elves aren't for me.

Also I have beaten every Zelda game ever made or with him in it besides the Tingle one in England because it was so boring. Not to mention I have to get 100% in every videogame which is more of an OCD I suppose. I also love to read National Geographic. Top that. Oh yeah also there are the many software games I have for my DS and PSP too. Not to mention I did every free quest on Runescape when I played it years ago except the dragon one.

I have over 200 illegal games for my playstation 1 that i installed the crack-chip in myself and i finished all of those.

And i still want a modern version of final fantasy 7.
Yeah I have a bunch of illegal games for my DS. Don't even know how any. But trust me you do not want a modern Final Fantasy 7. I saw this one video with it updated and the new graphics ruined it.

You see what I would like to do is produce an article detailing the processes and systems needed for the establishment of a self-sustaining energy economy based on fissionable elements.

It didn't fit Fox's guidelines for what they wanted- although I don't know if this is entirely what did it.

That was the first show in so many years that made me want to know the characters. It was a brilliantly meshed together mix of comedy, drama, character study and action. I would have liked to see the firefly universe expand.

I'm British, but I had my braces when I was living in Berlin. They do it really early over there for some reason. I know quite a few people who had braces in their teens. Loads of my friends did.
