Currently, I've parred the list of active games down quite a bit...

I'm a huge Dark Age junkie. I play dang near every faction in that game and bar Warmahordes is the game I've been playing the longest consistently.

I've been playing Warmahordes since Hordes dropped, though Mk II has seriously diminished my interest in playing (go play against the new Thunderhead + eHaley. Way to balance that one PP ::rolls::).

I'm really ga-ga for Malifaux; the card mechanic is solid and novel enough to really draw me in. I like that while a concise reading of the rules is necessary, the company seems to have no bones about changing how things work to keep intent. Love this rules culture compared to the Doctorate of Letters I had to get in order to navigate the rules landscape of Warmahordes.

I've bought into Infinity, Uncharted Seas, Rezolution, Warlands, WFB, 40K, and a myriad of specialist games in the past. None of that really stuck, though there's parts of all those games I really like.

Pulp City, Rusted Heroes, and Strange Aeons are on my "too integrate into gaming group" list; just working on getting Malifaux established before I try to bring too much new stuff in.

I played Vampire once as a kid and that was enough to sour me to RPGs for life. I own a lot of the Shadowrun source books, but honestly, unless it was just the right group, I'd have a hard time RPGing.

I'm still chewing on Punch Out for the Wii and working my way through Marvel Alliance 2. If anyone has any suggestions for Wii games, I'd love to hear 'em.

I have only played war games for the last 18 months my main game was WM but I have recently jumped ship to malifaux as the new rules changes are too much to bare.

I have played Vampire the Eternal Struggle for the last 10 years I own around 20k cards for it. It ISA wonderful game that has made me a better player in any game I pick up due to it's complexity and combo driven brutality.

Ditto

I'm getting there myself.

I demoed the game at the LGS to a couple people, and the head of our Sunday demo managed to convince the guys to at least send us a special order list. So we got the Special order sheet for Warpath Games, and while most of the items were listed as Out, I told people to order them anyways.

So we got a few people ordering more and a couple new orders. ANd everyone really likes the game so far. Though our Lady Justice player is a litte frustrated as her first game against her Husband with Sonnia didn't go so well.

Three separate questions...What do I own?...What have I played?...What do I enjoy playing and would like to play again?

Let's work on that last one since it sees most relevant.

Miniatures

Confrontation (v 2 - 3.5)

Mordheim

Necromunda

Malifaux

The Original Battletech (circa late 1980s)

Roleplaying

The Eighth Sea (an independent RPG I wrote)

White Wolf's Old World of Darkness: Notably Werewolf, Mage, Sabbat and Kindred of the East (none of this updated crap).

SLA Industries (though I can never find a group that want to play these days)

3:16 (brilliant independent "Starship Troopers" game by Gregor Hutton...look it up)

Quincunx (an independent RPG I'm in the middle of writing and playtesting)

Well, aside from a solo game of Mordheim occasionally, I don't actually game at all...just make stuff other folks game with. I used to play Column, Line, & Square (Napoleonics) & The Sword & the Flame (Colonial), but that was 30 years ago, AND my last AD&D game goes back about a dozen or more years. I MIGHT be just a tad out of practice. :suspiciou

Grognard gamer that found Infinity as the game I've been waiting my life for. I have all the Yu Jing miniatures and most of Pan-O, Nomads and CA. I've played several games and run demos and events.

But it was 40K Rogue Trader that got me into miniatures. Most other Sci-Fi miniature games just didn't interest me, though I did dabble with Cybertronic in Warzone. Got into and out of 40K, without dumping my armies, and even though I've still got an itch, I still haven't bought into the 5th edition.

Malifaux, of course sounded fun enough to become an exception to my fantasy gaming prejudice, but that may have more to do with firearms being involved than melee and magical combat. Close to finishing my first crew, and still have to play my first game

I've been collecting some Dark Age as well, and have played one game.

What I wish I could get into is RPGs, but time constraints and not being in a regular group sort of limits me to just being a rules collector. My current reads are:

Rogue Trader/Dark Heresy

Eclipse Phase

CthulhuTech

Starblazer Adventures

Burning Empires

Plus too many more to list.

I haven't had time for a game in months now, but I got the malifaux book and bayou gremlins. So I'm doing my best to stay up to date. Once I'm doing coaching football in 3 weeks I have to find dome opponents here in Boise, but damn I'm excited to play something new.

For the last 6 years warmachine and hordes. Well until about a year ago. I suffered serious burnout. I hope mkII renews my interest in playing, at the very least I still love to paint 'em.

And I've got a massive collection of untouched 40k and WH Fantasy that's been sitting for 6 years.

I double dabble in D&D as well. But by dabble I mean 1 session every other month.

This post is making me sad. I love all the games, and minis, and background, and painting. Yet somehow I almost never get to play any more. :( stupid growing up and responsibilities.
