Once again, the Army Faction chooses me... Maybe I didn't want to play Cryx...

Well definitely not true. I do like undead and evil/demonic styled armies. Just the Cryx capital city is a namesake to me!

Yo, I'm Skell. That's been my nickname for as long back as i can remember, everyone i know from my parents to work colleagues call's me by that.
I've been a wargamer for hmm since 2005? Primarily focused on warhammer 40k. With a few stints into warhammer fantasy. With the local lack of 40k game (especially on a compeditive level) enthusiasm and the wargame scene in general dying horribly fast. I was soon to go down a long road of expanding my gaming horizons. With jumping on several gaming bandwagons, eventually the road took a turn towards Warmachine MK2. I knew very little about the game previously, one thing i had heard from online forums is the MK2 rules set was apparently solid as(something 40k would appreciate).

Chunky introduced me to the game one afternoon after his purchase of the rule book, where he showed me the page on Iron Lich Asphyxious. I was pretty much hooked just on his look(Lich fan boy). But the line and sinker came with his Fluff blurb and their capital city being a namesake to me. So was born my army of choice... Cryx it would be.
With my initial purchase of the new Iron Lich Asphyxious 2010 model. So was my commitment sealed. I'm a big sucker for the Wicked looking models, so my consumerism quickly tried rapidly drain my bank account. But i will keep(tryed lol...) the curb on any major purchases until i get my Cryx faction book and learn to play the game.

This was until last Saturday (15th) where i just happened to be standing in front of warmachine on the shelf. I had actually been planning purchase's of models for my Malifaux crews, but a gaming store(Love, Dice and Paintbrushes) owner had not been able to attend unfortunately, to the club we were attending(Blind Pig, Brisbane) where he was going to be displaying his Malifaux wares. So I'll have to wait till next time or order online.

On our return home we decided to drop by Ace comics and games in Annerly, Brisbane. They have an awesome store. Not a single spot in the whole place had wasted space. This is also the location of my first Warmachine tournament, mid next month. Anyway, so there i was in front of the warmachine shelf's with $200 in cash. Well i couldn't help myself... A Deathjack, Seether, Withershadow Combine, and box of Mechanithralls later... ^_^ i was satisfied.

So yeah, that's my introduction. To be clear i have ordered 2 Bane thrall boxes, the new Plastic Helljack box, Bane lord Tartarus and purchased a Leviathan Helljack as well. So once again i buy a crap load before i actually play the game.

Now to figure out how to build my Deathjack....
