Electronics geek, casual video gamer, god-like dice thrower, Luke Skywalker wannabe and very long time gaming partner of Gallanteer. Happily married with two daughters who refuse to be brainwashed into liking the same games as their dad.

We both met aged 7 after having our world well and truly changed by Mr Lucas and his adventures far, far away back in 1977. We’ve been arguing about rules and playing games ever since. Classic Star Wars figures (which we’ve still got) eventually turned into computer games. We lost a year or two flying through space in a Cobra Mk III before delving underground in AD & D. We’ve played just about every game that LucasArts made as well as tons of others. At some point Warhammer 40K arrived which has been our gaming mainstay for about 20 years. We also played Epic during this time and tried out many other tabletop and board games and some CCGs (why Decipher was stupid enough to let the Star Wars license lapse is still beyond me).

Recently, that galaxy far, far away has returned to the forefront of our lives (it never really went away). With the sequel trilogy and the X-Wing Miniatures game, WH40K is having to take a bit of a back seat whilst we wage galactic civil war (again).
Oh, and if you shoot/kill/maim/humiliate Gallanteer or StormBolter on the Playstation Network, just remember that our reactions are not quite as sharp as they used to be, but we’ll never give up, never surrender!
