Title: Welcome one and all!
Post by: Ruckdog on April 08, 2012, 03:00:17 pm
Hi all, my name is Andy, but I go by Ruckdog on the various forums I post on, including this one. I've been a miniatures gamer since 2007, when I started playing Battlefleet Gothic with a friend of mine in the Navy.  Now, in addition to BFG, I'm also playing Firestorm Armada, Dystopian Wars, and Axis & Allies War at Sea. I'm hoping that this forum will provide a way for all you who enjoy naval gaming as much as I do to discuss our great hobby!

Dan here. I go by afterimagedan round these parts. I like BFG a lot and have a BFG blog HERE. (http://afterimagedan.blogspot.com) That being said, I love Firestorm Armada and Full Thrust models. Can't wait to see how this forum goes!

I am Jason, more commonly known as treadhead, treadster, tread, or hey you, yeah the bald fat one...

I have been involved in gaming since my early teens, got away from it for a while, and just got back into it, jumping into Warhammer 40k and BFG. Look forward to chatting and having fun

Jack here, I started tabletop gaming about 4 years ago, jumped into 40K, and played that for awhile, got out when I realized I didn't have the financial ability to keep that going, me and my friends spotted Dystopian wars about a year ago, and decided to give it a try, and we haven't looked back since!

Bob here. Naval gamer since 1975. Very complete WW2 and WW1 fleets in 1/6000 with a developing 1/4800 set. 1/2400 ACW, Age of Steam and Age of Sail with a developing 1/3000 Age of Sail collection as well.

I also dabble in Dystopian Wars, Aeronef, have a very substantial although lately unplayed BFG collection and am currently really enjoying ACTA Star Fleet and the new Mongoose miniatures.

Rules played are GQ 1,2 & 3 although I'm open to Victory at Sea 2.0 when it comes out along with miniature adaptations of Yaquinto Ironclads and WS&IM along with a modded Trafalgar.

Hi--my name is Greg, or Landlubber, or the Guy Who Rolls Dice Really Badly.  The only tabletop game I play is Dystopian Wars.  I run an FSA fleet, but will probably be branching out soon to a few others.  I'm a modeler first--I like military sci fi, so I've built alot of 40K models--only been playing DW for about a year.  Don't have much time for other games, between the Xbox and crashing R/C aircraft on the weekends.

Glad to meet everybody.

Glad to have you aboard, Dylan! If you have any questions about painting your fleet, be sure to ask in the modeling section!
