Hi,

Just wanted to introduce myself properly. I had a couple of posts in the army list section as I was deciding which flavour of chaos I was going to collect.
Since I decided on daemons I thought I better come say hello as I guess I'll be hanging out here more often in the future.

I played 40k and fantasy back in the 90s then had quite a long break. I got back into 40k last year (CSM) and I started with fantasy again back in February. I have been playing Skaven but I wanted a change from painting the hordes of rats and I thought chaos would make a nice change.
Plus daemons have the advantage that I can also play them in 40k. I debated various basing options but I've decided to go with square as fantasy is my main game and I don't like the movement tray option for round based. If my opponent really throws a tantrum about it then I'll play my CSM.

Very much welcome to the Forum!
I can't imagine the shapes of bases would be a problem for anyone you'd ever want to play against. As a strict 100% fantasy player I must of course applaud your final decision on that one..

On the other hand, given the fact that Fantasy is predominantly played on "movement trays" it'd be pretty easy to rank up round bases where-as square bases in 40k is always going to catch the eye.
Oh look at me playing the devil's advocate.. Of course the bases should be square!
"It's hip to be square!" - simply put!

Welcome, I am also in Leeds, where do you play mostly?

I was also considering Daemons for both Fantasy and 40k but got distracted from collecting Daemons as my Night Goblins kept giving me the eye as they haven't had money spent on them since th BfSP was released

I mostly play in the games workshop on Thursday nights, I'm hoping to check out the battle bunker on a Sunday at some point soon though.

If you fancy a game give me a shout, I think I can get my skaven up to about 2k or I have 1.5k of CSM. My daemons are very much a work in progress though, can't make much of an army with 10 BL and 10 horrors

Well I can put out 1.5k Night Goblins and got 1k Black Templars when the rest arrive so up for it either way, what and where is the battle bunker (newish in town)
