For my first one out I wanted to start out strong to get the ball rolling.  When I was thinking about it I quickly came to the realization that in all of the 40K Community there is one unsung hero everywhere.  This is the person that no one ever thinks about, few people if any talk about, and everyone just sort of generally ignores until they need them.  Who is this person you might be wondering?  It’s the employees and owners of the local gameshops and clubs that we all play at.  These people tire endlessly to give us our models, cut us good deals on our supplies, and make sure that we have a place to play and tournaments with great prizes.  Yet no one really stops to consider that they are there.

I got a chance to sit down and talk with Chris, the owner of the local game shop Knightfall Games, where I spend most of my time when I’m not working, at school, or doing stuff for the site.  Heck, most of my videos are even filmed at his site.  Chris runs a great shop that I highly advise anyone in the Portland area to come by and check out and maybe bring your army along.  He has several really nice tables in the shop, open gaming almost every day of the week, a large amount of terrain that he has either made and assembled himself or gone to great lengths to procure.  Always an interesting guy to talk to, and makes spending time at the shop really enjoyable. I found it to definitely be a learning experience to do this interview.

The fact that he took time out of running around the shop getting his todo list done to sit down and answer questions alone shows that he does care about his players and always makes time for his customers.  So if you ever have time I would suggest swinging by, no matter if your just getting started, have questions about this game or any others, looking for a new game to play, or just looking for a great place to hang out.   Now if he would just get my Rockstar Punch flavored crack in stock…
