Where did you start with the hobby? 

When I was younger I remember seeing a friends Ork army. I loved the models and I knew I needed some. I started up with Space Marines. I would change my mind constantly on which chapter I liked the most and constantly repainted them. Ultramarines, Salamanders, Black Templars, Custom chapters... They were a mess. But they were my mess!

What is the biggest highlight in your time doing the hobby?

When I was younger Games Workshop Leicester did a big Apocalype game. They put together three tables on the floor and about 20 people just threw models everywhere. I joked with the manager that we'd come down to play if I was allowed to use the warhound titan in the shop window. He let me! I remember the amazed looks I got from everyone as I deployed it on our side. It was so much fun seeing so many people involved in one game!

What do you enjoy most about the hobby?

I love the miniatures. Seeing a fully painted army is the best part for me. When the stars align and you see two fully painted armies fighting on a board with fully painted terrain it's so good to take a step back and just admire it. Bonus points if the armies are 'fluffy'.

If you could date one of the Chaos gods, which one would you choose? 

Slaanesh. I'm too much of a perfectionist. I know I shouldn't. But it feels so good!

What do you enjoy most about the club?

Meeting the people. I play a lot of PC games. To me the main difference between playing an online strategy game and playing actual 40K is having a real person infront of you. 

If you had a club nickname, what would you like it to be? 

I have yet to earn one. So I have no idea!

Who is top of your grudge list? 

Hari Patel. His Tau destroyed me. Soon I'll be playing his Necrons as well. I need more Knights...lots more Knights...

If you had any psychic power from the rule book and codexs, which one would you choose and why?

Invisibility. You could go anywhere and do anything. Nobody would ever know!

How do you feel about Tau? 

Death to the Weeaboo

What is your favourite game mechanic and why?

The psychic phase in general. I find it unpredictable and it's still fairly new to me. Most of the time it's uneventful but sometimes it gets pretty brutal.

If you were God-Emperor of Mankind for the day, what would you do? 

Write a formal apology letter to Magnus for being such a dick... 

What is it like to be an All Scar?

So far so good! It's an active community with some really great events. I'm looking forward to more in future!
