I don't follow the board game / painted figures fanaticism of 40k, but I do enjoy looking at the massive armies and awesome skulpts whenever I walk past the workshop stores. I find the universe a little confusing, the game itself (and the rules) even moreso. I've always thought the 40k series to be rather geeky, but I've come to appreciate it moreso as a hobby and an "art" over the past year from afar.

The IG look rather formidable and battle hardened in your set zed. The IG in the dawn of war game series look like conscripted skinny peasant farmers with toy guns.
