The Lure of Slaanesh is a great one, and not even the great Space Marine
Primarchs could resist its whispered temptations, and I am far from being a
great man. I have only been playing for a couple of years, but is a small
sin any less than a great one? A friend of my older brother came over with
his Eldar and Space Marine armies to show the game to my brother, but asked
me and a friend of mine who happened to be there is we felt like trying it
to. Unknowing and uncaring of the path of damnation that we tread upon, we
said yes. I played the game, I lost, and I hated the game. My friend and I
spent a long time bitching and moaning about what a terrible game it was and
what its many problems there were. But before I knew or understood what was
happening, I was playing the game again, this time with my own army, and by
the time I realized the Dark Path I tread upon, I was too far along to care.
My friend was stronger than I, and he escaped Temptation, but I do not know
nor care who is the lucky one. To this day I do not know how I went from
hating the game to buying my own army and flushing my hard earned cash down
the proverbial toilet. Nicotine coated miniatures I suspect.
