So now that I'm living in upstate New York, I've found two things to be true:
1. Lake-effect snow sucks
2. 40k games are hard to come by
I started out playing 40k in OH which has a very solid community of gamers. It was possible to get games in any night of the week and hit a RTT pretty much every Saturday if you were willing to drive an hour. And most of the stores were heavily focused on tabletop games, so there was never a shortage of tables or terrain. In short, I was spoiled...
The part of New York I now reside in isn't as blessed when it comes to 40k and the transition was a huge shock for me. Finding games now takes a considerable amount of effort and with moving, work, and other committments, I haven't played any sort of "serious" game in about 9 months. So not only am I pretty rusty, but I'm behind in the meta too. I'm hoping that by keeping a blog and following other blogs/forums I will be able to get back into things and avoid getting curbstomped too bad when I do travel to tournaments. That and I'm hoping that by showing my process for building a new army, I might be able to recruit some new players locally so I don't have to drive so dang far...
