I'm not new to warhammer 40k, I played IG and Dark Eldar back in 3rd edition, but I got out if just before the release of 4th edition and now I've been having a craving to get back in and play IG. So while I'm not new, I sorta am new. I see from browsing the forums that there's new stuff and a new edition on the horizon, so now I'm torn with buying now or waiting a bit. Anyway, hi ~Jarem Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged The Refined Gentleman WARLORD Stalker member is online Here's a comforting thought: right now in Chicago somebody's probably on fire Joined: Apr 2007 Gender: Male Posts: 2,963 Location: Portsmouth, UK Re: New (sorta) IG player « Reply #1 on Jul 30, 2008, 10:56am » Welcome back to the ranks comrade!

It isn't something I would suggest buying until the new one gets out. At least that will save you some money for beer in the meantime. You need your standard HQ, 2 troops and what ever vehicles you want to start with. Most of the folks here will be glad to help out.
