This is a thread for new members to introduce themselves, and for other members of the Palace to welcome people.
Please keep introductions to this thread.
To any new or old members, welcome to the Warhammer Palace.

Aesgareth - February 6, 2005 07:37 AM (GMT)
Hello, I am Aesgareth. You probably won't see much of me unless you spend most of your time in the RPG/Arena sections, or the occasional political argument that I care about.
Benedictus - February 6, 2005 09:30 AM (GMT)
Hi, I'm Benedictus and I'm an RPG and Warhammer addict.
"Hi Benedictus!"
Oh, I'm also Australian. And, uh, love Chili with the fire of a thousand burning suns. He doesn't return my love, but that's only because of the distance between us. Once I stalk...uh, I mean travel closer to him, that'll all change.
Glee!
EDIT: Oh, alright. Some actual infomation: I'm an Empire player. I've been floating around since White Dwarf 204- much to my chagrin, I realise that means it's nearly been 100 issues since I first discovered the joys of tiny lead miniatures. I'm getting old.
I'm sure y'all will love it here- the Palace is one of the finer warhammer-related discussion forums on the 'Net, and it's members are helpful and friendly.
Prince Cal - February 6, 2005 09:44 AM (GMT)
Hi all, I'm Prince Cal and I'm God.
I post in Warhammer, High Elves, Orcs and Goblins, Vampires, Brets, Rpg, Area, Painting and Off topic. Though I post in all of these I mainly spend most of my time in High Elves (my fav army) and Rpg where I play in rpg's where I can and am currently running my 2nd rpg Mousillion.
I can give you help across the board in warhammer and am always happy to help. I also have a large dislike of 40k though am considering my return in the shape of my long suffering eldar army.
I am a good at painting and modeling so if you want help there again I will be most happy to give it to you.
Finally, I love political debates so I will get entangled in most of them at my times expense.
Ross - February 6, 2005 09:54 AM (GMT)
Hey I'm longdrong A.K.A Ross.I come here just about every day and according to my profile i post 3.7 times a day, So I'm likely to come acros you sometime or another.
I collect Dwarfs and a night goblin army,and there's a speed freek army on the horizon.
I usually post in off topic,the hobby boards,RPG, O+G or dwarfs.I will try to help you if I can and the other members will go out in their way to undermine me.
My fave aspect of the hobby is modelling but I win quite a lot of my games so I consider myself good at strategy and tactics so i can help you in both of these areas.
I have quite a low attention span though so I rarely write articles or stories.

Welcome to da Palace.

*Shudder* Hi, I'm Shaargor (a tad odvious maybe) and I play lizardmen, orcs and gobbos and chaos. I am disparing on world politics and am starting to on British. I admire...ur, I mean despise, Benedictus for what he does.
Dark Lord Jim - February 6, 2005 05:08 PM (GMT)
Hello, I am DLJ, one of the original members of the Warhammer Palace. I joined shortly after it was founded way back when.
I'm an avid VC player, and I've also played Chaos and Bretonnians with minor forays into the worlds of 40k and Necromunda. I'm generally more than happy to give advice on tactics and army lists, I've played the game for just over nine years now so I at the very least like to think I know what I'm on about! ;)
Anyways, welcome to the Palace, one and all. May your stay here be an informative and pleasant one.
Cheers,
DLJ

From Moonshadow's post, I thought this was something for new members to introduce themselves on...
Drauthnir - February 6, 2005 06:14 PM (GMT)
It was for introducing new members. What seems to have started off as a joke kind of went downhill. New members, please join in.

I didn't realise it was a joke,I just jumped on the bandwagon.
Prince Cal - February 6, 2005 07:18 PM (GMT)
I was jokey and being serious. I think it's a good idea though if we have the better members posting here so new members know who to turn to.
Shaargor - February 6, 2005 07:39 PM (GMT)
I think older, not better is the best way to put it. I was just, as Londrong says, "jumping on the bandwagon".

Hi I'm Xarhain.
It's slightly different for me, because I know full well that Chill returns my love. He just doesn't show it much. But I can read him. Oh yes...

Benedictus - February 6, 2005 10:06 PM (GMT)
Well, being a newbie on other forums, I know it's always easier to introduce myself if I can read everyone else's introductions first. Although, I should probably put a little more infomation into mine. Heh.
Johann von Maulheld - February 6, 2005 10:30 PM (GMT)
Okay, I'll be the first more-or-less new guy to introduce myself. :)
I'm an avid VC player, though I have collected HE, skaven, Chaos, DE and the Empire (all in two or three years!), but I am currently beginning a Dogs of War army. I'm a member of the Blood Keep forum, the Realm of Applefort forum and the Teqniq Forum (the last one has very little warhammer though). I hope to do more than I have done so far for Warhammer Palace
Launcelot pappillion - February 7, 2005 11:58 AM (GMT)
I know this is the introduction thread, but i have decided to leave the site for a longer period of time. I will therefore tell a little goodbye story about a guy named lancelot, who have enjoyed the last three months on this site :D
it all started with a n00b, having heard about a game named warhammer from his friend. being as competitive as he is, he wanted to make an über army, so he could smash his friends armies to pieces..
the first thought running through his mind was: I got to make a chaos army! And so I did, i build it up from scratch and the final army was fine, but i needed oppinions on it, so i found a warhammer forum by total luck, and gave myself the user name: Launcelot Pappillion, and then I posted my very first post here:
My very first threadAs you can see, i discovered the almighty slann, and some moderater too, and I found out that VC was the way to go :wub:
I was then about to leave the site, but I needed more oppinions about my new army, and seeing that they replied nice here I made another thread:
My second threadNow I really began to talk with the lovely people here, but I didn't know as much about warhammer as others here, therefore I joined the RPG section, and there i had some nice fun (don't worry Ross I will still be in your RPG here, but thats the only place i will post)
My first RPG on the internet, and it's still going strong.After a time there, I decided to find me an army. the first tries were unsuccesful
An unseuccesful trylater i found my figures, but first I spend some more time roleplaying and i decided to give some adversiment for a good site I played on, but a site that is long dead by now
A dead forumI chased my lobing for D&D, and tried yet another time
A D&D suggestionI turned back to chaos to find out if they were as cheesy as I have heard.
A Cheesy time in the chaos forumthen I began in the arena section and played some more RPG here, while i began to post more all around the forum.
Another unfinished RPGI havnt forgot the Undead sectioni joined a big arena with LCP and went through the first round ;)Then I began spend some time in the off topic section and I met my diciple HeWhoCleansTheDishes
My first meeting with the CLEANERThe heroric rescue of the CleanerThe cleaner followed my around the forum and this is my last post (so far) with him
My final word with the cleanerOff topic timeAnd now i feel that my time here has gone, and I am leaving the site exept I am playing in Ross' RPG...
GOODBYE EVERYONE:::::
EDIT: HeWhoCleansTheDishes is now inside my story, I could not let him down :lol:
:clap:
this has been a great experience :wub:
:fight: (I have allways wanted to use this smillie..
Burp Foulbreath - February 7, 2005 04:27 PM (GMT)
Hey Dude,
'Never say never' :thumb:
Burp!
Goblit Skullhelm - February 7, 2005 07:55 PM (GMT)
HeWhoCleansTheDishes will be so disappointed to see "Frenchie" leave. I'm surprised that wasn't on your highlights list...
See ya.
*Waving smilie*
Prince Cal - February 7, 2005 08:07 PM (GMT)
Bye lancelot though I will still be playing with you in the rpg!
Sad to see yet another good member go......
Aesgareth - February 8, 2005 06:15 AM (GMT)
Well, my reason for posting here in spite of my long tenure as a member was twofold:
1) It was partly as a joke. It was rather late, and my sense of humor gets a bit odd at those hours. I had to edit it several times in an effort to remove all traces of snide insulty-ness.
2) I wanted to see if anyone else would "jump on the bandwagon" as some of you put it, and copy my move of "re-introducing" themselves in spite of being longstanding members. My hypothesis was that by beaming mind-controlling psionic waves through my monitor while I typed the post, I would be able to obtain a very high turnout of "bandwagon jumpers." Obviously, this proved to be correct. My conclusion is that I will soon be able to use my budding powers to take over the world, ruling with an iron fist from atop a black tower located somewhere around Hawaii (which will be emptied of all indigenous life and made into an extensively guarded buffer zone around said black tower). Or something along those lines.
Luc_Arkhame - February 8, 2005 08:48 PM (GMT)
Aesgareth, Aesgareth, Aesgareth; I'm very disappointed.
That plan isn't very well thought out, a BLACK tower in Hawaii?
Think of the air conditioning costs, you'll never be able to maintain it and the army necessary to defend yourself against those who have a natural immunity to mind control (ie. the incredibly smart or stupid (which means that most world leaders would be immune)).
Also, by broadcasting your mind control through mediums, it will not reach underdeveloped areas, leaving a possible army of hundreds of millions if they suddenly decided they didn't want a dictator in a black tower ruling over everything.
Thirdly, take a look at the history of people who have tried to take over the world, they always fail in the end.
So, you may want to reconsider. Maybe find an ally with the military might necessary to carry out such a plan.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fare thee well Launcelot, may your blade find a home in the heart of your enemy.
Drauthnir - February 9, 2005 02:29 AM (GMT)
Ok, this topic goes off on a tangent rather easily, doesn't it?
I'll lock this until an admin decides it's worth re-opening.
Sorry, guys.
On another note: Sorry to see you go, Launcelot. We await your return.
EDIT:
Ok, I've erased the tangent. It was either lock this and let an admin deal with it, or go ahead and clean it up so it can stay in use. Sorry for the few deletions, but I'd like this to stay open. Just keep it somewhat on topic. Thanks.
Tylisarieth - June 19, 2005 06:22 AM (GMT)

I've taken the liberty of attatching your Intro post to the Intro Thread. 'Tis where it belongs. Welcome to the forum, Tiger and Tylisarieth.
Starky - January 10, 2006 11:47 PM (GMT)
Yas, intro posts, these are always good banter ^_^
Well, I'm Starky, I mainly collect High Elves, Tomb Kings, Chaos and I'm hoping to start a Chaos Dwarf army soon... I have had a large Empire army in the past as well, so expect to see me around those army forums :ph43r:
ladders - August 12, 2007 04:32 PM (GMT)
Hi, there's not really much point in saying "I'm new here" as it's kind of redundant.
I've played a few small battles with High Elves, and decided I didn't like them. Now I've moved over to Wood Elves, for various reasons.
I live in the UK, and my painting skills are... substandard. I also hate cavalry units.
blood dragon! - January 10, 2008 05:59 PM (GMT)
I'm introducing myself,
but am i really introducing myself?
I like: Mighty Boosh, Cheese (made from milk) and play High elves and eldar.
Well, haven't been very active. Hope everyone enjoys it here and happy posting!
