Ben642[TK] Posted July 30, 2025 Report Posted July 30, 2025 Hey everyone, Just a quick message to introduce myself—I’m Ben Weiss from the UK. After what may be the longest build in UKG history (a solid 10-year WIP… yes, really!), I finally suited up for my first troop in Manchester this past weekend—and absolutely loved every second of it. A highlight of the day was meeting Paul Hoeffer, and I had the honour of him placing my UKG insignia on my armour—definitely a moment I won’t forget. I’m really looking forward to meeting more of you in the future. All the best until then! Ben 6 Quote

Daetrin[Admin] Posted August 3, 2025 Report Posted August 3, 2025 Hi Ben, it was truly an honor for me to be allowed to participate in your branding and getting to meet you. Your kit looked great, and you looked smashing in it. :) The UKG holds a very high standard for TKs in particular, so you should rightly feel proud of your accomplishment. I highly encourage you to submit your Expert Infantry submission photos soon, as I'm sure @jsilvius would love to get rid of the ones he has in stock. ;) I wish you all the success in your next troops with the UKG. 2 Quote
Ben642[TK] Posted August 3, 2025 Author Report Posted August 3, 2025 Hi Paul,Thank you for your kind words and continued support. I truly appreciate it. I’m excited to begin working on my Expert Infantry submission and am very much looking forward to my next Troop already!It’s an honour to be part of such a fantastic organisation, and I’m proud to contribute wherever I can.Thanks again,BenSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
