Hi Everybody! My name is Scott and I’ve played 40K since 1989. I can remember getting the original Rogue Trader rulebook and my mandatory box of 30 Marines.At that point everything else had to be built.

Hey it’s Moron, writing again. Here to solve a big problem with simple fix, the wobbly flier… I’ve gotten the Caestus Assault Ram from Forgeworld, awesome model, and fun rules, but this thing is a hefty chunk of resin.
