unixknight Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 By Wargamers, I mean the type of gaming using miniatures and played on a tabletop dressed up to look like a battlefield? I'm heavily into Warhammer (both Fantasy and 40K) as well as Warmachine, Infinity, Firestorm Armada and Star Trek: Attack Wing. I also have a 28mm Macedonian army I'm working on that's compatible with the Hail Caesar ruleset, and a 28mm Soviet Army for Bolt Action. How about y'all? Quote
mirkwood Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 I haven't played in several years. My wargaming buddy moved out of state. Huge Warhammer Chaos army, smaller Dark Elf army. Even larger WH40K Chaos Marines, smaller Space Marines and Inquisitors. I also have Mordheim. We also played a lot of the Warhammer war bands rules. I also have Space Hulk and the expansions, plus Epic (Space Marine). I have tons of figures for a variety of games. I also built terrain for Mordheim, Warhammer and WH40K. When I have time for gaming I run a D&D campaign using AD&D rules. Blackmarch 1 Quote
Palerider Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 I never did get into this. Had a friend that did and he absolutely loved it. Quote
Laniston Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 I play warhammer fantasy but recently my game of choice is Dust Warfare and Dust Battlefield. WW2 but also features things like walkers, jetpacks, lasers, etc. Much cheaper to play than any GW game and a lot of fun. Quote
mrmarklin Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 I used to be into war games by Avalon Hill. Somewhat related. Quote
CaleB Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 I used to, but it was too addictive, took up too much of my time. Quote
Latter Days Guy Posted December 21, 2014 Report Posted December 21, 2014 Played a lot of historical stuff when I was younger, 25mm Napoleonic, 1/300 scale WW2 and modern stuff, a bit of WW2 and modern naval. Also did the Warhammer, had a huge Lizardmen army, a Night goblin army as well! Never really got into the 40k stuff, just seemed daft having orks in space! Would love to get into it again but got rid of my figures a long time ago, although I do have a Warmaster undead army in a box some where!! Quote
unixknight Posted December 22, 2014 Author Report Posted December 22, 2014 When I have time for gaming I run a D&D campaign using AD&D rules. I used to do that, too. I was running a 2nd Edition campaign until the 5th Edition rules came out and I gotta tell ya, they're pretty good. Feels like a true successor to AD&D in a way that 3rd and 4th never even came close to. mirkwood 1 Quote
mordorbund Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 I read DarthsAndDroids.net. Does that count for anything? Quote

(Battletech)really want to get theAttack wing, star trek variety. I like warhammer but its too costly.I also have one called Battleship (not the game that most are familiar with). Quote
unixknight Posted December 24, 2014 Author Report Posted December 24, 2014 Attack Wing is pretty awesome. If anybody's in the Washington DC area, contact me. My Gaming club is having our annual NerdFest and this year we're doing a variety of games, including Star Trek Attack Wing, Artemis, etc. We're fortunate enough to have access to a Church venue for the party so it's a family friendly environment.
