I went into this game fully knowing that I could get carried away. To stem the hoarding I decided to start two armies. My tyranids are gonna be the army I am constantly expanding, while my Witch Hunters have a set list I am building too and will stay at 2k points. Never above it. This way I can always buy more stuff for my nids if I get the urge and still have a majority of my armies painted.

Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage's whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.

I have been unloading a lot of stuff over the past year and it feels great to have free closet space again. I know that I have seen gamer friends that seem to hoard all kinds of games, from board games to miniatures, that they will probably never paint, and boxes and boxes of terrain that they may never get around to using.

I suspect this is a common trait among gamers.

Do we have the hoarding gene?

Guilty as charged!!!



At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money.

True unfortunately. My main problem is picking up interesting junk to use as terrain - I have tons of it!

I almost always agree with Albatross, I can't see why anyone wouldn't.

Okay, so the male version of "Cougar" is now officially "Albatross".
