Denver the Dinosaur, repping from Cali

Hey, I've been putzing here for a little while but I never introduced myself. I'm a player from Sacramento, CA, only army is Lizzies. I also play orks in 40k. My friends tell me I seem to keep picking the joke races.

Playing about a year and some change, mostly against WE And Dwarves, a couple against WoC. Occasionally the Orc player is up for a game but he can't seem to beat me so I try to find handicaps to even it out. Shhhh! Don't tell him.

In a campaign right now locally, it's going we'll for me. Slann really do piss people off when the games matter! I got most of my army online so they are prebuilt and painted. I have limited painting experience and I am intimidated by the thought of trying to do it and screwing up, so I'll lurk in the painting forum til I glean enough to try it on the few troops I built myself.

Spend a lot of time online reading tactica, trying to improve my game mentally and be a better player. I don't know if the success I've enjoyed is due to Lizardmen being a good army or if it has paid off listening watching and experimenting. I've tried every lore but Death, only because we went campaign before I built a list to try it. I usually roll randomly to see what Lore I use each game, to make it more fair. I usually reroll Life and Light. Those two just seem to give me too strong an advantage.

I play to have fun, win or lose. But I want to play well, so it seems like I am more competitive than I am. If I lose because I'm an idiot I just feel like I wasted our time and want to go back to the drawing board. If I lose because of luck or being out played, then I smile and accept defeat; it's a damn game. Winning and losing should be mostly inconsequential to the fun. If you can only have fun if you win, well, good luck.

I think I've rambled again. I have a tendency to do that. Apologies. When typing at a screen I seldom realize how much others will have to read after I am done. Creative Writing degree. I like to verbally splurge when my mind is in the correct gear.

Thanks to you all for being cool and informative and chill. Like you had ice in your veins. Yeaaaaaah.

 

It's always nice to meet another Lizardmen player and yeahh the Slann does seem to make people mad! Well don't be afraid to paint. Just like the game it takes practice to get it down So just remember to have fun!

 

Thanks for the support ya'll. I will work on it and not be a plastic playing n00b.
