I've been getting the '40k bug' again lately, I think it had to do with teaching my 5-year-old how to play the other day and with the mini sample armies I am putting together for some demo games. I used to be heavily into 40k a few years back, and slowly fell out of it as players in my area got into other games. I am not trying to focus on WarMachine/Hordes, because I think it is actually a better system, but something about 40k keeps drawing me back. :)
I ordered a bunch of Orks and Marines off of ebay last week, most of them are leftover parts from various people who purchased the Assault on Black Reach and only wanted Marines and not Orks (or vice versa), essentially this got me about 1,500 points worth of Marines and Orks for under $100 shipped... I figured I couldn't beat that! Only got 1 dreadnought in there though, but all in all I think I have pretty balanced amounts of forces.
In any case, once I get these and build them, I'll have to 'flesh out' the armies by purchasing some kits from Games Workshop... but I think I'm on the right track as far as having 2 strong armies to do battle with. I need to get into my storage and try to locate some of my full armies. After the move it is so hard to find some things... I am eager to locate my Kroot and Ultramarines.
