This summer I've gotten back into Warhammer 40,000, a table-top science fiction table top soldier game. The game is from Games Workshop, they produce and sell the products. There are two Games Workshop stores in Edmonton, the nearest to where I live is in the West Edmonton Mall. I have basically been going there since I got into the hobby, I first played on a holiday in Calgary and went to the other Edmonton once or twice. This was two or so years ago, but at the time the employees were really annoying and I was basically turned off that store for, well, ever. But now I'm seriously considering going back to it. Over the past year, maybe less, the WEM GW store has started to get really bad. Underestimating how many people who would come to events was common, the good employees started leaving and now the summer events don't look like they'll be going very well. Yesterday I went to Games Workshop to participate in the terribly-renamed event "Quick and Messy." It consists of two 500pt. armies working together against another two 500pt. army team. Last summer I had a ton of fun doing this event, which was organized as a tournament. It went along with a painting contest and, if I remember correctly, a similar event on a different night of the week for Warhammer and Lord of the Rings. (Those are GW's other major games.) This time, however, was significantly different, though I should have been able to figure that out by the new name of the event.

I should have posted again much sooner, but I've been putting it off, as per usual. Even some encouragement didn't make it happen right away. This time, especially as of late, I've been significantly less active on the internet and haven't been on my Xbox 360 for a number of days. This, I think, I can primarily attribute to getting back into Warhammer 40,000, a table top game. (Wiki it?) I've been catching up on building some of my models, I have a ton that I bought when I was in England since they were significantly cheaper there. I've also been playing quite a few games with my brother and will probably end up going to a number of Games Workshop events next month. Anyways, all this has been keeping me from getting another blog entry done. I had/have plenty of ideas, one which I may end up ...
