Hello - newbie

[alex]

Hi! I just registered and am keen to dip my toe in the water of board and wargames... I moved to Cambridge a few years ago and was glad to find this group online.

It looks like you are back to meeting on Monday nights at the Logan's way scout hut? If so, I'm keen to drop in and, not to intrude, see what you do and participate if i can...

I have a few board games, Warhammer Underworld included, as well as a recently rediscovered (25 year old!) WH40K chaos marines army and a complete Warhammer Quest (the 90's original) boxset too. I'd be delighted to bring either at some point. I can lead a WHQ game but am a novice at WH40K (I've got the free pdf of the latest core rules and watched a few videos). I think I can rustle up a 500pt or 900 pt 40K army.

I got back into the painting side of the hobby over lockdown. Played WHQ a few times with my son and now keen to try the bigger games and older/wiser opponents.

I've majored on WH stuff above but my interest s due range wider to board games in general too. Never tried RP, bar long term WHQ characters, buit interested too.

Hi, well yes we had just started to go back to in person.
The pandemic had us shift to online gaming - mostly on boardgamearena and we have a discord server where communication is quite frequent. Also some members use it to organise online games on nights away from the club night if that interests.

I think we have a couple of 40k players hovering (on that theme Im an Epic player rather than 40k).

Mostly its been board games played since we restarted but there has been some historical miniatures gaming. We are currently in an RP short term game before we start a scifi RPG in the New Year.

Having looked at the recent Plan B rules I initially see nothing preventing us carrying on playing although with mandatory indoor masking we will have to comply with that but that could let us close the doors and windows….or least a lot of them.

Thanks Tim, I'll try to drop in tonight. Masked up of course.
