When I play at my house, there is always beer or wine or scotch or something.

At tournaments sometimes my pals and I grab one next door in between rounds.

If I'm in the mood, I'll drink when I play at a buddy's place or at home.

Sometimes, yeah. Keep it moderate tho, Its not much fun if you pass out during the middle of a game and wake up with a Daemon Prince stuck in the middle of your back.

Lol

I have a beer most days when I come home, so a beer or two over the 2-4 hours a game takes isn't a big deal in my mind.

I have a 15 mile drive through Mad-Max-Style traffic to and from my FLGS and the vast majority of the people I game with are minors anyway, so I stick with near fatal doses of caffeine and sugar on gaming days.

Not allowed to drink at any of the gaming venues, next to no interest in doing so anyway.

"I don't always drink & Warham , but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis. Stay thirsty, my friends."

Will only drink if the host allows it, and only when there are no minors present.

Cheers fellow dakkaites!
Here's to making 40k a bit more jolly!

Usually driving when I play, and besides I'm a bad enough general, the alcohol would make things so much worse

Flask anyone?

Driving while you play? That's pretty impressive. How do you fit the table in?

I have a couple of beers during our friday night roleplaying session, usually. And if my mates come round for some board gaming or wargaming on the weekend I might have a couple too. Not really interested in gaming drunk though, and certainly wouldn't show up to the shop drunk.

My wife bought me one... I just can't bring myself to fill it with hooch and bring it down to the FLGS. I think that would make it official.

On the roof. It's a Micra, there's barely room inside for people, but if even numbers of people hang out the windows, it doesn't tip the minis over

As It says on my profile.. (I think), I love to drink while gaming and smoke luxury, flavoured cigarettes!

You do have to be careful not to forget about the game tho!

I don't drink, so not really an issue for me.

as with everything in life, moderation is key.

I get leathered almost every time i play, although, this is because we mostly play at weekends, and i get leathered on weekends...

If i was in a gaming club playing mid-week or something then i wouldnt drink.

Too young, but I don't see a problem with it.

I don't drink at all. I do know a couple of people who drink and game. One was even booted out of a tournament for being piss drunk and obnoxious.

Most of my games are played at home (mine or some friends),so their is almost always a few beers being consumed.

occasionally when gaming occurs at my home, does drinking ensue.

I pretty much always drink and play. This is my relax hobby and so is good beer... So its like a must. However the only time I don't drink and play is if I'm at the Local Game Store. Me and my friends have actually made a drinking game mission for 40k that is friggin awesome.

I don't drink but I wouldn't mind if I played with someone that drank a bit, so long as they didn't get drunk or obnoxious.

My mates and I quite often have a few beers over a game, not a full on session but just a quiet few.

If available, I game and drink when I can, especially role playing games. It makes a relaxing, fun time even more relaxing and fun.

How does been drunk effect others during a game though o_o
