I used to be a regular gamer in our local GW, but as time's gone by, and I've grown steadily more fed up of waiting two hours to play a game on the store's single 4' x 4' table, my average has dropped to around 1 game every 10 weeks.

Once a week. Should be more fun than it is, but lately every game has been my CSM playing against Chaos Daemons, and my opponent refuses to play lower than 1500 pts and refuses to play objectives. My army generally gets fed through a slow, boring meat grinder.

I get confused when I see several tackle boxes, battlefoam bags, etc. and no one is playing... Oh well. I guess games are more fun when you don't play them...

About 2 games a given month.

My main venue is a monthly club. About 2 games in a given month is about all I can handle. I hate tournaments and their asmanygamesthatwecanfitintoagivenweekend schedules.
Beer is available, and I no longer have to play in a store that reeks of magic players.

I can only get down to my local store once every couple weeks and the only guy i know with this own table lives further away than that lol.

So i tend to only play once every couple weeks, sometimes less. Our local store is pretty good for organising games and little mini tourneys if loads of people want to play games.

I do not play. I want to but because of where I live it's kind of a no wargaming community. I can play if I want to drive an hour to get to a store and then maybe someone might be there for a game, so with the cost of gas prices and the chance that no one will be there it's like why bother. So now I just continue with the hobby side of things. Maybe one day I will play my first game.

I wish I could play more, but there only seems to be one group where I live and I don't really like gaming at the local GW (too many children. Nothing against them I just want to play people my own age :p) so I only play about once a month.

I have Vassal but that doesn't really count.


So... anyone in Lincoln UK got room to play? :p

I used to be a regular to games-workshop, popping in several times a week, but I have been slowly getting more frustrated with having wait an hour for a table and sometimes not being able to get a game because some new booking system has been put in place where you can book a table but its first come first serve.

Also there are other factors like 6th edition really ruining 40k for me with all the tables and random dice rolls you have to make. Plus prices makes collecting a new army virtually impossible for me.

Hmmm, it depends really, I haven't tried playing any games at my LGS so that is one reason I don't play very often, but sometimes when I get together with my two wargaming buddies, we like to play a few rounds with each other, but on average, it's more like once a month. It's not a really big deal to me because I like to paint more than actually play.

None, i only collect and play myself since its a pain in the rear to keep up with the all the new rule books and up dates that are being released so often and cost a lot too.

I'd rather spend my money on more minis and supplies such as paint and stuff than buying a new rule book for say 70 dollars where there are like 7 rules that have been slightly altered since the last edition and the rest of the book is the same as before.

I'm lucky enough to have 3 good gaming clubs near me and an awesome FLGS where you can book a table

I regularly get to 1 or 2 club meetings per week. So on a good month I can manage to game maybe 12 times in total.

Support your local club, if you haven't got one, maybe give it a go!

If I got a game a month in, I'd consider myself lucky. I ususally get one game every 2-3 months in.

It's never an issue with getting a table, as I have an awesome FLGS with an abundance of tables and terrain. I have 3 regular opponents, and all of them are busy either with family or work. Same with me. So finding a time when one of them, and myself, are not busy for a day at the same time is difficult.

Same here, ours has just started up a league

Originally I voted that I don't play but one BRB and three codexes later (BA, DA + Tau) have changed that to playing quite often!

I stopped going over Christmas, I'd just started a new job as well, so finding time was a nightmare.

Now I play on Thursday nights and Saturday afternoons, works really well because a few guys from Thursday go down on Saturday, and vice versa so the league has about 12 people regularly turning up (not a lot but it's more than enough variety plus everyone gets on)

So I'm probably playing 10 games a month now, from zero

This is what i am attempting to achieve where i live. in the manner you described. not having as much luck though. sometimes i think it'd be easier if i moved back to the city instead of where i live now. there is interest here but
it seems no one is keen to play 40k. even at the FLGS which advertises it host's a 40k night (which it doesn't), that doubled with the fact i no longer have a working car means that my gaming time is next to non existant. really wish i'd game more but alas it seems how hard i try it's not mean't to be. if that's the case then i guess i'll continue the hobby but just not from a gaming POV

Most Saturdays I get down to my local GW, which means either participation in one big scheduled game, or one or two smaller games. When I can, which is fairly rarely, I also go to games night there, which constitutes another couple of games a week.

I guess I'm somewhere in between "once" and "several" a week, really. It depends.

As i see it, having a family is the only thing that prevent people playing. I don't understand how others don't have the time to play a single game in one week.


I feel for the people like me who don't actually have anywhere local to play. Being in a small town has it's advantages but if there ain't the players, then there isn't much you can do. No doubt there's probably 1 or 2 kicking around here, but trying to find them is kinda hard. Maybe i should stick a few posters on some lamp-posts saying, "Play 40k? txt me". My local FLGS costs me £10 to get to and play + the hour and half commute. The next city club is the same-ish but with a single 4x4 board. And the other club has next to no 40k players, i played my first game there in several months.

When i finally get the money together to move out, i'm going to build a 6x4' board. I can get most stuff free which is good. Then i'm definitely running with the lamp-post idea!

[edit]
I'd happily buy stuff from GW if the facilities were any good. But as others say, 4x4 boards and waiting unreliably for games is just plain bullshizzle.

I imagen jobs that able people to forget about then when they get home paired with quick meals, no family commitments and refusing to tidy the house/ do odd jobs. It's doable but requires no dilly dallying around. Also if the place is on your doorstep, that helps considerably. I find painting is the hard one, much more time consuming imo.

Where I'm from we're lucky enough to have an FLGS with up to a dozen or so 6' x 4' ply-board gaming tables. Which are usually covered with loose old Citadel battle mats, albeit in very good condition. So if my local GW is ever full, we can just go there and start setting up almost immediately.....

Anyways ya I put once a week because I sometimes don't have time for any matches, so it balances out.

Once a month average...but sometimes also 3 in a week. It depends.

I haven't played a game of 40k since 5th to be totally honest, but I have been playing AoS at least once a week since it was released. I went back to college (not everyone finishes in 4 years straight through as your counselor may have you believe) the summer 6th dropped and lost my few opponents. When I came back home for a break I realized my 3 opponents and myself were the only thing keeping 40k alive at my favorite FLGS and the community was completely gone replaced by Infinity, Warmahordes, Malifaux and Bolt action. I didn't dig the scene at the store near my school, no formations and excessive list restrictions = no fun for me. I'm of the opinion 40k is meant to be played at 3000 pts and above, smaller scale makes combos way too op and is why people ban them. I get that and totally understand but if I had my way all 40k games would be planet strike apocalypse games. That leads me to my next problem. I was born with health problems that only get worse every year and effect all of my major joints making it hard for me to get around or lift anything. As I approach 30 (not that old I know but my doctor just told me I have the knees and ankles of a 75 year old) this has made hauling large armies to and back from FLGS a major hassle, and I don't even want to get into tables that are too high and places that don't provide chairs. In the recent years I have definitely become more of a collector because of that, and whats funny is as I play less the more models I actually get to complement my forces. Assault marines are garbage in the current meta? I don't care, they look badass and I have a great idea on paint scheme, few years ago I never would have even considered picking them up. I do get together with a buddy to play AoS on skirmish levels. I toss my forces into the smallest troop carrier I have, grab my binder with my warscrolls/battleplans, dice and rulers, throw everything in a bag and I'm set. No huge books to carry en masse, no need to carry three full packed Battlefoam 720s and I get in a few games instead of one. AoS has been good for my body.

I try to play 40k once a week, but sometimes that is impossible. I want to play as many games as I can as that is probably the only way I'll get any better at it. Plus I want to get as much mileage out of all the money I've dropped on 40k as I possibly can. I didn't buy the stuff for it to sit around and collect dust.

I've not had a single 40k game this year, and the prospects for the next 6 months aren't inviting...

Once every 2 weeks at least.
Sometimes once a week.
I do attend various conventions during the year so it could push up my numbers to more than 1 a week.
Attended Hotlead and played 5 games at about 3-4 hours each.

I am shocked how much support my area has for Malifaux, Battletech, X-wing / Armada and 40k.
Since I am spoiled for choice in the model department for all of the above games: I can play pretty much any time I want.

Job, wife, kids and various repair "man's work" obligations as well as kid's hockey taxi work seems to cramp my style.
The man-child does not get out as much as one would want.

I'm finding it silly hard to get a game since 2012, it's like nobody plays 40k anymore. My two closest gw stores don't like gaming, and there are no available clubs.

Now down to two friends who play 40k, and neither of them are in reach for most of each year.

Anyone else thinking that their era of 40k is over?

Less than once a month. It would be once a month, but I usually only game Classichammer on drill weekends, and half of those are away. Found out there is at least one other gamer in my unit, so may be able to get more.

I play once a week on thursday evenings. And then some small tournaments and bigger cames once every other month on a saturday. Will be less in the future because we're moving away to another province.

I play only about 4 games a month, not as many as I'd like, but all my local players (near my FLGS) are usually only available Thursday nights, when I'm busy with school stuff.

Every few weekends or so, I head over to the nearest GW (about an hour away) and get a game or two in, but that's about all I can get since there are only two tables.

I've been trying to up my amount of play to once or twice a month (ideally every other week), but it has not been working very well. Hence less than once a month

Havn't been able to play since I can't find a place too play since I moved.

Not too keen on 8th (Don't want to relearn everything again, Im lazy). That and I need to find a place that is receptive to my extensivly customized and converted army.

Sat. is typically my minis gaming day. For the longest time it was limited to 5pm+ & (generally) 1 Flames of War match. But with a recent scheduling change I'm able to play earlier. So for the past 2 months I've gotten in an additional game of X-Wing/Bolt Action/etc. Soon I'll add 40k to that list.

And sometimes we'll squeeze a quick minis game in on our D&D night. Or to fill those sessions that would otherwise get canceled for whatever reason

Normally at our weekend gathering I get 1-2 games of WM/H in. Some weeks I get the option of another random game but normally its a couple of games on a Sat or Sunday afternoon/eve.

Between work and family I hardly get enough time to paint let alone get a game in here and there. I have been trying to find a local group or some gamers more interested in similar games to myself but with no luck. My last attempted game was against my brother who was high as a kite on beer at the time...so I ended up joining him. The End result was a game where we both ended up staring blankly at the table and nothing happened. Pretty sure those Squigs are still laughing at us both.

I get to amend this. for 3rd Ed. 40K, I will wind up getting a game in at every drill I have that isn't a field drill. My brother now lives far closer to me, and is in my town several days a week for work. That facilitates some 6th Ed. WFB gaming at the local shop that's about four blocks from my house. So it looks like I'm going from less than once a month to potentially every weekend.

Sadly nowhere near as often as I wish I could. I haven't got a store near me at all, so I'm reduced to playing with friends, and mostly they don't play, or are too busy.

Before the pandemic? I aimed for once a week, sometimes managed twice a week, but not less than once a month.
Since the pandemic? Once every 3 or 4 months?

Yeah, this year has been a big hit to my gaming. I had a stretch of years when I was playing 100+ games. That dropped in 2019 when I only had 61 games played, which I thought was lacking.

This year, however - oof. With no conventions, tournaments, campaigns, or club meetings, I'm way down in games played. Only at 30, and I can't imagine that's going to get much higher as things get worse with the weather getting colder.

Boardgame Wednesday with buddies (1-2games/w)
+
occasional wargame visit of a friend (2g/m)
+
a Warmachine tournament (3g/m)
+
boardgaming with wife (1-2g/w)
+
boardgaming club I run at school (2g/every 2w)
+
solitaire plays at home: Aeon's End, Machina Arcana, Spirit Island, Mage Knight (2g/w)

I'd say close to 30 tabletop games / month is about right. Pandemic cut that number down a bit, obviously.

Surprised people are playing frequently giving it's a method of transmission in a pandemic.

What a weird poll.

This poll has been running since 2012. Also peoples circumstances are different, I play 3 times a week because I live with people who play, previous to that I played twice a week because the country I was in dealt with the virus really quickly.

Many years ago, I played almost daily, either with someone else or solo.

Nowadays, I'm lucky if I manage to squeeze time to play once a month.

I answered "a few times a week" in reference that I have a couple D&D games on weekends.

As far as wargaming, I don't really have anyone to play with right now so that would be nill. I play with some friends once in a blue moon over TTS but most of them don't really have the interest in wargaming that I do or have been too busy.

I know a couple discord communities I can play in, but a mix of my natural shyness and my concerns with 9th edition 40k have made me hesitant to take part.

I've poked at battletech a little bit as well and I do like the setting, but I admit I have a soft spot for space wizardry.
