PERSONAL HOBBIES:
NOTE: It is the social interaction of both of these hobbies which I find the most enjoyable.
Offline my favorite hobby is Warhammer Fantasy Battles, a tabletop battle simulation game using ¿toy soldiers¿ and competing against friends in large tournaments of over 50 people or small events of around 8 competitors. I¿ve been playing for about 10 years winning many sportsmanship and other awards and have truly enjoyed the hobby.
Online I am an experienced MMO player (that¿s Massively Multi-Player Online game). Starting in 1997, my list of MMO¿s includes Ultima Online, Star Wars Galaxies, City of Heroes/Villains, World of Warcraft, Eve Online, Lineage II, Dark Age of Camelot, Auto Assault, The Matrix Online, Lord of the Rings Online, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Age of Conan and Warhammer: Age of Reckoning, which is based on my offline hobby.
