Hi everybody,
Michael from Glasgow here.
Got into Aliens when a friend of mine persuaded me to go to Alien War at the Arches, way back in the early 90's. No pulse rifles or armour to be seen, the Colonial Marines were using blank pistols, wearing DPM and manky vests and I'm sure one even had on a pair of Hi-Tec trainers
Didn't matter a jot!!!
It was effing brilliant!!!!
Sooooooo atmospheric and I'm not afraid to admit it, a little scary
It got me hooked, and since then I've been an Aliens fan.
I've just started trying to get Colonial Marines kit together ( if the wife will let me. )
So far I'm the proud owner of a pair of jungle boots, a USCM T-Shirt, A screaming Eagle patch and hopefully by tonight, a pulse rifle and flamer unit. ( Unless I get sniped on E bay

)
Also with Christmas coming, Santa has my letter requesting a motion tracker
I'd appreciate any help you guy's can give a newbie and if they're any UK based clubs etc... I'm up for any info.
Thanks for reading this long winded intro and stay frosty
P.S.
Can I just say that MAA has been great in supplying info about BDU's. ( Thanks Steve. )
Edit: I won the auction and I'm now the owner of a pulse rifle and flamer unit... YEEHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
