Okay, removed the sarcastic comment.

So, I enjoy many things, and if time is willing probably translate my passions to paper. Unfortunately, I am quite snowed in with work, pathologically lazy and i have more things to do than time to do it in.

At the moment, no. 1 spot goes to Warhammer. I have three imperial Guard regiments, one standard infantry, one light infantry and about two amroured companies for the third. I have two blood angel companies, along with some of their supporting staff and vehicles, mostly focussing on the eighth assault and a standard battle company. Trazyn leads about four thousand points of necrons, mostly infantry based with some support vehicles and canoptek units. A small, tournament sized Eldar army finishes up the 40k collection, comprised of mostly aspect warriors in wave serpents (Sorry). For fantasy i only own about two thousand points of Empire, very infantry heavy with lots of (exploding) black powder war machines.

I own a few of the Bl books, most of the latest GW codexes (including 7E) and a few FW stuff. For those of you who don't know what those abbreviations are then congratulations, you just avoided the most expensive hobby ever. (seriously, i have a job and everything just to support this, it's rather annoying)

Like most people I game a lot, frequently sacrificing homework time so I can defeat the next boss or hook up with friends. On even rarer occasions we'll bring out some of the more antiquated consoles and enjoy some older games. My tastes vary constantly but I do enjoy RPGs and RTS usually. At the moment I'm currently waiting in barely concealed excitement for Bloodbourne and the Total War Warhammer game that's rumoured to be in the works.

Because my mind can't keep still, I usually combine my interests, resulting in weird, wacky crossovers that not everyone gets. For example, my Imperial Guard regiment, the 1st Arendellian light infantry, is led by none other than Elsa herself (I use an Ordo Xenos pychic inqusitor rules, whilst customised the model myself (god that was hard)). Mind, whilst they do well, Elsa keeps on getting shot up by bloody broadsides and their railgun bullshit. The least disney could do was put her in power armour, it's hard enough to claim that her ice dress is actually multiple layers of bloody carpace armour...

I enjoy Tolkien (even jackson's adaptions!) and other similar fantasy, marvel comics (DC can suck it), Doctor who (one of my friend's uncle is David Tennant(!)) and other stuff like that.

I play football (that's proper football, not that pansy-ass rugby rip-off) supporting my local team (Reading) but loving the mighty Canaries most (Norwich FC), rugby, badminton and cricket.

I am forever DM for my gaming group (or GM, because there's a difference) and most of my stories will include snippets from my experience as both god (DM) and ant (player).


In the pipelines, sometime in the future, I will be attempting my take on the siege of terra, a one-shot for the Emerald herald, a small novella for an Imperial guard whiteshields group, some explorator type stories. Whilst this does seem like a lot, the sad part is most of these have actually been started and I just haven't got round to finishing them.

Usually the main focus will be on Greek styled tragic heroes, I do love a good tragic hero. To be honest, thats been heavily influenced by tales of Ollanius Pius and Macharius. Most of my 40k ones will focus on guard because superhuman space marines are too inhuman for me to adapt too.
