Have you ever had a moment when you did something because you just wanted to and felt the need to scream "I HAVE NO REGRET!" while doing it? I just had one today as I bought two copies of Imperial Knight Renegade on an impulse.

Still no regret (there was an anniversary sale at my local FLGS and this felt like the perfect opportunity to snag some deals and support them).

Does this sound about right?

Space Hulk: bought it kept the models sold everything else
Overkill: bought for the models, not bothered about the game
Renegade: I needed two more knights

Do I regret any of it? No.

Does my wallet? With the exception of renegade, yes.

GW have upped their game and I like it for the most part.

Just hoping no codex updates for a while.

Backed Dropfleet Commander at the Commodore level plus some add-ons.

It was a hit to the wallet at the time. Shortly thereafter, I joined a DzC gaming group and discovered that, by comparison to others, my investment was minuscule. It was also a relief to know that I would have opponents and a FLGS that carried the game. That made me feel a lot better.

No Regrets

After the new Dark Eldar codex came out, I bought another group of Hellions, bringing me up to 30+. No regrets.

Spend $XXX on GW space ships.

No, not Batttle Fleet Gothic, the game that's been dead for more than 10 years, no, no, no.

Got ships for Space Fleet! The game that's been still born for more than 20 years!

No regrets, love those little ships.

I do, and then immediately have regret. Sell beautiful Dark Eldar army and gorgeous flyer! Buy into Skaven and High Elves...Warhammer blows up...read that the person I sold the flyer too hated my paint work...so...yeah. Donkey Orbs.

Buying one of the Start Collecting boxes, when I already have a massive backlog of unpainted models. No regrets.

Every Black Friday for the past 3 years

Picked up a Sicaran when I was at Warhammer World because it's too damned cool not to.

Buying an entire Stormtrooper Ground Assault Formation from Warstore during their Black Friday sale two years ago.

After one demo game, Bought the Flames of War starter, books from all three fronts: west, east and Mediterranean, hardback rulebook and a german fallschirmjäger army like a Boss.

No regrets.

One word:

Warlord.

In February I threw down that cash for about five boxes of Bretonnian men at arms when reliable rumors started circulating they they would be on the chopping block. Dont regret it, never will as they are a crucial component to my IG conversions and I snagged enough to finish out my regiment.

That is a very, very pricey word.

How about in game antics? There's a bit of an unwritten rule in my group that if "it's what the fans wanna see," you pretty much have to do it, no matter how tactically unsound the idea is.

Obviously we tend not to take things too seriously.

I bought the Skyhammer formation set when it originally released, and the Ultramarines limited edition.

No regrets.

I got ten Suzerains and a spartan for my 30k army.

No regrets.

3 boxes of BAC.

No regrets.

An almost constant stream of praetorian upgrade sets for um.

No regretsssss.

Bought into 40k over 26ish years (had over 40,000pts in marines, eldar, GK and guard)
Sold or gave away a lot of it after this time.

Regrets: none. Kept the models I really liked. Still have them. Even the necron monolith I only bought because I wanted to have the crystal have a pulsing "glow" (electronics, not fancy painting).

The wargaming hobby hasn't caused me any regrets. I got into various games because I actually liked the models at the time, and in most cases, kept them afterwards.

I didn't buy EVERYTHING for every game or even everything for A given faction within a game. No buyer remorse, no regrets. If it was going to cause me buyer remorse or regrets, then I wouldn't have bought into them anyway (I don't tend to do impulse buys).

I didn't really need 72 Pig Faced Orcs but I got them anyways.

A new one for me:

Started a new Khorne Daemon army on a whim.

40 Hounds and a juggerlord later, I still have no regrets.

Putting 90% of my GW stuff on eBay and using that cash for fund other games.

Impulsively (read: drunkenly) bought a 500 points 30k word bearers army and incurred an overdraft fee.

In a game? Opponent asked if I wanted to forfeit when I only had a single GK model on the board vs. half a tac squad and 2 dreads. I called him a heretic and then blew my last guy up from perils 10 seconds later.

Bought an average sized Confrontation Mid-Nor army (about 15 models). Regret .....

Next day, bought a BIG Mid-Nor army (36 models).

Regrets all gone.

4 months later, bought another Mid-Nor skirmish force (8 models).

Still no regrets.

Chopped the top half off a Glottkin to turn him into a Nurgle Imperial Knight. Not finished yet but looks killer so far...

Upped my initial Kickstarter pledge for This is Not a Test from $90 to $300. Then spent another $200 on the Post Apocalyptic Wastelanders and Survivors kickstarter from Brigade Games.

I regret nothing.

Buying an OOP Forge World Fire Dragon on eBay two weeks ago

Found someone selling a 'Gaming Room' Through the Breach Kickstarter pledge on ebay. Won it for $519au. During the kickstarter it would have been $300au without shipping.

No regrets. The miniatures alone in it, going by recent ebay listings for the limited edition models, are worth more than that.

Just placed an order for a squad of Grishnak Sisters of Battle.

My morals went out the window after seeing them. The =][= will be knocking soon to black bag me. No effs are given.

No fething regrets.

Bought an ipad, now I keep all my RPG and wargame books on it in electronic format.

And I can play solo Warhammer Quest whenever I like.

Compared to a lot of other companies Warlord are very reasonably priced I find.

For the moment of no regret was when I decided to cave in and start playing FoW again, so much fun

Can you send me a PM and pics of them once you get them please. I've been waiting to pull the trigger on those models. I can't wait until the whole line ( the list) of figgies he wants to do is avaliable, then look fething gorgeous!!!!!!


Come on GW if a russian sculptor can make models that beautiful then you or FW should have np doing the exact same thing.

NO REGRETS! on dropping a feth ton of cash if those russian models turn out well

I've bought boxes of GW miniatures just for a single part they had, that I needed.
I've a huge backlog on painting miniatures and yet I buy new stuff.
I've bought kits that I liked the first time for a second and thirt time only for them to end up in my bits box.
I've a huge 1/48 AC 130 gunship model I got over 8 years ago, which I converted and painted and is still awaiting finishing touches.
I've got a Baneblade converted to look like a Command & Conquer apocalypse/mammoth tank that's about 90% done and sitting in a box waiting to be finished.
I've a couple of squads of SM scouts and Imperial guard that are about 90% finished. For several years.
I've started building models only to top halfway. They are still on my shelves to this day.
I've have watched Friendship is magic and thought it was OK.
I've have watched Filthy Frank and laughed.
I've bought Command and Conquer 4 on full price as an impulse buy.
I've have got Hudson Hawk on DVD and I find it a good movie. The same goes for Highlander 2 the quickening.
I've tossed 2 quarters off a skyscraper while on vacation in the US when no one was looking.
I like the AoS Sigmarines models.
I think finecast was not that bad of an experiment in mass production resin and that people are overreacting a little to much just because it's GW.
I like the hobby purely for building and converting.
I only played two games of 40k in my entire life.
I think the Deathstar could win in a fight with Unicron simply because it has range.
I think Iron Man was right.
I bought Superman 4 on DVD and decided to keep it.
I think Hitman Absolution is the best Hitman game.
I think the first Hitman movie was OK.
I will buy more GW miniatures in the future regardless of what people think of thier prices.
I have better English spelling in my typing than most English speakers on the internet.
I've have mixed Pepsi with Coca Cola because I think they taste the same.
I play Dark Souls 3 with mouse and keyboard.

I REGRET NOTHING!

Except for buying C&C 4. That game sucked.
