Just thought I would say hi, I have just started playing BB again after many years of absence and am loving it! Building a norse team (using space wolves as funds are tight at the moment but hope to get a more suitable team when I get spare funde) I have already made a pitch and played 2 games so fa, 1st was a draw (dark elves) and the 2nd was a disaster 6-0 (skaven) I have regiseered with the NAFF aswell (if any of their staff read this please contact me  ) To my amazement my 11 your old daughter seems interested in playing so it could be a new family game!!

Yeah, noticed that not many people have their location, makes sense to use it to possibly find more players in the area Spending too much money on this already (although far cheaper than my other hobbies) since I posted above I bought a yeti & some plastic arms for my team... Have a pic of my part made pitch on my phone, will try & post it up [edit] Just noticed I must have left my phone at home, wondered why it had been quiet in work today... [/edit]

BB or wife should be a no contest so I'm not surprised

Love this post, I've been back on this forum after about 12 months away. I am now at the ppont of buying my first team, as family and work always prevented purchases in the past.
What team to go for, and after choosing a race, what minister to go for aaaarrrggghhh.
Narrowed it down to:
Halflings
humans
Dwarves
After that I'm stumped. I love the stunt fellas for there never say die spirit, humans for their balance and Dwarves for their stubbornness. I play stunties and humans on bble.
What to do.......
