Title: And another one from The Netherlands..... :D Post by: Belegar on April 23, 2016, 08:20:46 am Hello All,
My name is Erik (aka Belegar) I live in Capelle aan den IJssel (next to Rotterdam). I'am so sorry I missed the Kickstarter, but I was at Salute last saturday where I discoverd this great game. Before we entered Salute I said to my friend that I really do not want to start a new game (because I have already a lot.........) The World of Twilight stand was one of the first stands at Salute that we walked by and the miniatures were just awsome!! We talked a little with the crew (who were very nice! ;)), but I didn't want to spend my money because we were inside for a few minutes and I did not wanted to start a new game.....(yes you feel where this is going to..........lol) We went on to all the rest at Salute but this game stuck with me the whole day. ;D At the end of the day we went back for some more talks and I bought a big starter set (The Fubarnii Empire and the Casanii) a packed Belan with rider (this model is absolutly gorious!!) and I got some nice extra's! There went my principle of not buying a new game......hahaha. Now a week later I am reading the rulebook and started painting some Empire Knights (pics will be up this weekend!) A little about myself: I am 45 years old and have played miniature games for almost 25 years now. We are playing with a local group of 8 men that are a litlle bit older....(like me ;)) I Started in the early 90ies with Warhammer and played that till the Age of Sigmar.......... >:( The last 5 years I started on new games: Bolt Action, Saga and Dead Man's Hand. All three absolute great games!! Hope to see The World of Twilight develop in a great community of players with a lot of nice new models and expansions etc..... All the best to you all and cu around the Forum, Erik Title: Re: And another one from The Netherlands..... :D Post by: Carcharoth on April 23, 2016, 09:23:01 am Welcome!
So, do you know jase and boss troll, or is it just a random influx of players from the Netherlands? :) Salute was a great day, glad we managed to catch your attention, even if it messed up your plan to avoid any new systems :) What colours are you going for with the Knights? Title: Re: And another one from The Netherlands..... :D Post by: discok3 on April 23, 2016, 09:24:00 am Welcome to the forum..I may well have spoken to you right at the start of Salute as I remember speaking to a Dutchman who swore he wouldn't get into a new game system!I told him he was weak like all wargamers with shiny minis and he'd be back later..looks like I was right

The shiny miniature syndrome is hard to resist at times. I have far to many Games as well, but there are only a few I always come back to, World of Twilight is one of them. Welcome to the community!

Thank you Carcharoth! I do not know Jase and Boss Troll.......yet! :) But it is good to see there are more Dutch players getting into this game. I do not know the colour of the armour of my Knights yet. A lot of people do red or blue, I guess I would like something different, maybe Dutch Orange? ;) Welcome to the forum..I may well have spoken to you right at the start of Salute as I remember speaking to a Dutchman who swore he wouldn't get into a new game system!I told him he was weak like all wargamers with shiny minis and he'd be back later..looks like I was right Yes, I do remember you DiscoK3!Good to see you here at the Forum and you were right, I was weak...........but I do not regret it!(haha) Title: Re: And another one from The Netherlands..... :D Post by: discok3 on April 23, 2016, 11:45:47 am Thought I remembered you Erik
Look forward to seeing your projects unfurl Cheers Kev Title: Re: And another one from The Netherlands..... :D Post by: Halcyon on April 23, 2016, 03:26:16 pm I do not know the colour of the armour of my Knights yet. A lot of people do red or blue, I guess I would like something different, maybe Dutch Orange? ;) There is a Twilight Painting Guide http://www.worldoftwilight.com/forum/index.php?topic=1926.0 (http://www.worldoftwilight.com/forum/index.php?topic=1926.0) which might give you some ideas. A lot of people are doing their Empire Knights red (the official colour if there is such a thing) and their Orel Knights blue (the official colour was grey but we wanted more colour ;D ). Mike liked the blues everyone was doing for Orel, so he added it to the guide. :) As the Fubarnii Empire is made up of lots of clans, if you want Knights with Dutch Orange armour, that create your own clan and go for it ! 8) Title: Re: And another one from The Netherlands..... :D Post by: Danu Kopa on April 23, 2016, 05:13:59 pm Welcome Erik - Belegar
I too try to not get into any new games, except those that truely inspire me. I was hooked from the moment I found the latest kickstarter. The forum, free downloads, and the backstory of the game have only deepened that appreciation. We must follow our heart. Ha Ha. :D Title: Re: And another one from The Netherlands..... :D Post by: Carcharoth on April 23, 2016, 07:35:02 pm Orange knights sound fun!
There are quite a few different shields now, so if you fancy some specific ones then let me know and I'll pop them in with that missing base. (Struggling to post the image... I'll keep trying!)
