Just wanted to say hi.   I picked up a KOW Starter Set a Dwarf batallion and a few odds and ends at GenCOn.  I've got all my inital purchases assembled plus a few e-bay purchases and am getting ready to paint what amounts to 1500 pts each of Undead and Dwarves.

I palyed WH Fantasy from 2nd edition till some where right between 6th and 7th edition,  so I have a tone of figs that have been sitting around doing nothing for the last 8 -10 years.   I'm really excited about KOW and can't wait ot get back into gaming on a regular basis again.    Anybody here with 50 miles of Indianapolis?

Welcome.

I'm in the UK but share your excitement for KoW. Played a 1500 point game just last night of Dwarfs vs Undead as it happens!

I started with 3rd Ed WHFB so have a fair few models too Smiley

Will you be starting a painting blog we can see?

Welcome to the Fanatics!

I don't know if I got to meet you at Gen Con or not, but it wasn't long ago I was up at the Mantic booth in Indy.  Although I'm a bit further away, I'm hoping to eventually do some demos up in Indy if there's not already someone running things up there.

I think you'll enjoy playing KoW.  It's a fast, clean game and it's ideal for leagues.  I'm looking forward to seeing what new stuff got added to our dwarf list when the revised rules come out.

Keep in touch and we'll try to coordinate a game day at your FLGS.

Thanks for all the welcomes. 
@Llew  Not sure if I met you either but i was at the both quite a bit usually with 1-3 12 year old boys in tow.   As for Demos in Indy, I i'm hoping to do a few here myself as soon as I get everyhting painted  and am bit more familiar with the system.    We have (if you can belive it) 6 Game stores in the Indy area.  Saltier Games, Indy Gamerez, Game Preserve North and South, The Arsenel and Games to Die For... All with open Gaming.   I'm sure if you contacted any of them they would all love to have demos and I'd be more than willing to assist...

Also hoping to maybe get a tournament or a bring and battle set uop at Whosyercon in March.

Welcome aboard.

These 1500 point games against Dwarfs seem to be all the rage.  I had one on Thursday, but I'll spare Uno the horror of retelling it.  I hear he might be able to sit down without the aid of a rubber ring before our next game though.   Tongue
