yeah,
I've bought loads through the years, but I only keep hold of 'complete game in a box' type games. I have 2 or 3 copies of blood bowl and spacehulk.

40k starter sets get dismantled and absorbed into armies, the box gets used for storage or binned, So I guess I don't have any complete 40k starter sets.

Panic...

Never bought a box set, I'm a dirty little ebayer. I get a kick out of buying up damaged models for dirt cheap then refurbing/converting them back to good as new.

I said 1, since I own Space Hulk, but in the past I've owned starter sets for 40k 2nd edition, 40k 3rd edition, and WHFB 5th edition, as well.

Although, the only things I have left of any of them are a 2nd ed rulebook, 3 2nd ed starter marines, and a couple of marines from the 3rd edition starter.

Everywhere I'm not supposed to be.

Just two IG Cadian BForce sets...probably a couple CSM BForce sets as soon as I get everything else finished up.

And 13?! Gud gawd, sah!

If you need me, I'll be busy wiping the layers of dust off my dice.

I don't have any, I personally don't like the fact that they're snap-fit and therefore can't be converted.

Unless this includes Battleforce sets, in which case I have a Necron Battleforce...

1... found a store that had AoBR for $54 USD... so I split it with another guy at the store and got all the marines.

$27 for 10 marines, a captain, a dreadnought, and 5 terminators was really quite a deal.

A few out-of-date box sets (Macragge, 4th ed Warhammer, etc.), Gorkamorka and BFG. I keep thinking of getting Black Reach, but my Eldar (both epic and 40k) are draining all of my gaming-money right now =P

Looking for fun articles on painting, tactics and wargaming? Are you after a new regular blog to follow? Are you a bit bored with nothing better to do?

If the answer to any of the above is 'well, I guess' you could probably do worse than read my blog! Regular wargaming posts, painting and discussions

3 (sorta):
- Warhammer 40,000 (3rd Edition)
- Battlefleet Gothic
- Warmachine (Cryx)

If people are counting battleforce-type things:
- Eldar Army Deal (2E)
- Space Marines (4E)
- Warmaster starters for O&G, Empire, HE, Chaos.

Also, I owned, but have since sold a CSM Army Deal (2E).

And then there's Magic, of which I've bought dozens of starter boxes.

Hmmm,I have 2 sets of orkz from AobR (bought 1 and traded off the marines).
I also had 2 sets of Dark Eldar from the 3rd ed 40k box ( a buddy had purchased 2 boxes and gave me all the DE).
So I suppose I've actually only purchased 1 starter box.
