I am Annaamarth, and as the personal text says, Anna is fine.<br/><br/>I have been passively aware of WH40k since approximately 1994, plus or minus a year, when I first saw "Beakie" space marines.  I even put a couple of the models together, focussing on marines with bolters and marines with rocket launchers.  Those minis are long gone, of course, and it wasn't until 2004 that I was re-exposed to the game- and most especially the fluff- via Dawn of War.<br/><br/>Since then I have become a lore-hound and avid fiction reader, gotten involved with the tabletop game (Tau, Black Templar, Chaos Daemons, and Space Wolves), lost a substantial amount of disposable income and gotten UN-involved with the tabletop game (a combination of insufficiently crafty, insufficiently wealthy and possessing an insufficient amount of free time), but I've enjoyed my exploration of the roleplaying games, especially Rogue Trader and Black Crusade.  I've not had much opportunity to flex my Astartes muscles, so I'm looking forward to a little bit of tactical RP and politicking via crusade.
