    Skull Anyone else like Warhammer 40k?

    I'm just getting into it! I'm planning on getting my paws on as much Slaanesh as I possibly can. I love their sexy history.
    I also really badly want a Dreadnought though... I just think they're adorable somehow.

    Anyone else play / paint / collect Warhammer 40k?
    If so, which armies / races do you collect and why?

    My husband plays. He alternates between Grey Knights and Tau.

    I'm currently painting a Commisar just for the hell of it because I like their look.

    (actually sitting in the store where he buys all of his models and bumming their internet right now, tee-hee).

    Q_Q ...oh, and I actually know jack-all about the universe and storyline except for what he's told me during nerdgasms.

    Lol, ok...so I hipped hubby to this thread and he says that if you want a Dreadnaught with Slaanesh, you have to get Chaos Space Marines from the Emperor's Children Legion. That will allow you to get your Dreadnaught and the Slaanesh in play.

    (second hand knowledge, I don't know what it actually means )

    I liked the video games, does that count?

    Hubby plays. He's been trying to find a place around here in Tokyo to go play and smash the Japanese nerdswith his crazy gaijin-ness (his words, not mine lol).

    He plays Space Marines and Grey Nights.

    Chaos Daemons. I'm trying to avoid CSM if I can.. it just seems everyone has them! >.<
    I'm also interested in Dark Eldar, though I wanna read more on their fluff to see if I feel like I could be one! (Yep! That's my deciding factor for which armies I'll collect: If I feel like I AM one, I must have them!)

    Whenever I play an rpg type game, that's the deciding factor for me as well as to what I'll play. If I can't get into the fluff, forget it I can't play it.

    I never could get into 40k though....

    Oh and my hubby says "if you like being the master in bdsm, then you'll like the fluff of the DE. That and demented science. As for CSM, that is unique...most places roll with SW, IG, GK, and random stuff after that."

    And whatever that means lol

    I'm really getting into the fluff of the DE! I think I'm going to go with them as my army, but still collect Slaanesh purely for painting and modding purposes. I don't want to have to incorporate other Chaos Daemons into my army in order for it to be decent; I know it depends on who I'm playing against, I just want a more well-rounded rounded infantry.. plus, I love the DE transports!

    Are you gonna just play for fun or go more competitive?

    I don't think I'll ever go competitive, at least I wouldn't like to at this point. I still need to just play one game! I need to get a proper grasp of how it works too.
    I think I'm put off of 40k competitiveness because I've known people who have had bad arguments when they play competitive. At long as it's still fun and doesn't descend into any arguments, it's all cool.
