About

The Tale of Two Gamers is a blog which will follow my brother and I as we build up our Warhammer 40K armies.  For those who are unfamiliar with Warhammer 40K (often shortened to 40K), it is a table-top miniatures game based in the far future.  40K is produced by Games Workshop, more information about them can be found on the linked website.

The Tale of "X" Gamers is an approach to beginning a new army in which "X" amount of people start collecting their respective armies at the same time and spend the same amount of money on their army per month.  They then have monthly competitions, the outcome of which will usually effect what they purchase for their army the next month.  It is a great way to get into the hobby, and works well for people on a budget (like myself).

For this round of The Tale of Two Gamers (TOTG), I will be collecting the fast and furious Blood Angels while my brother has gone with the more regimental and organized Imperial Guard.  I've set myself to a month budget of $50, while my brother will be spending $70 per month due to the higher monetary cost of the Imperial Guard.  Our monthly purchases and the reasons behind them will be posted, as well as pictures of the painted miniatures, conversions, and epic battles!

Enjoy!
