No 40k, but WM/H, Infinity, Dystopian Wars, Firestorm Armada, and planning Saga Warfare. Occasionally Blood Bowl and if the locals can make the campaign stick, I might use my Protectorate as Sisters of Sigmar in Mordheim.

besides 40k the only one i play is Blackwater Gulch (thanks Necros)

looking forward to trying Infinity and Force on Force.

Dystopian Wars (KoB)
Malifaux (Just about everything, no Ressers)
Hordes (Gators)

Dystopian Wars 1.1ed rules have been a vast improvement thus far, just throwing that out there!

Hail Caesar
Warhammer Ancient Battles
Legends of the High Seas

Haven't played 40K since 4th ed., looks like I'll be skipping 5th ed entirely.

My club and I play alot of games. Most of them are "generic" in that they aren't designed around a certain range of figures. We greatly value being able to collect and paint many different brands and types of minis (mostly 28mm) and know that the games we play will either have force lists to accommodate them or a unit creation mechanic to stat them up with.

Play with some regularity
Song of Blades and Heroes (Fantasy Skirmish)
Wastelands Meltdown (Post Apoc skirmish)
Mech Attack! (Mech combat at the platoon level)
WarEngine (Generic Sci-Fi combat)


Play a couple times a year
Full Thrust (spaceship combat)
Future War Commander (Sci-Fi Mass combat)
Apocalypticum (Post Apoc Skirmish)
Warpath
In The Emperor's Name (Fast-play skirmish in the 40k universe)
Tomorrow's War (Hard-Sci-Fi combat)

There are a few others I can't recall right now, and a few (necromunda...) that I'd love to play if I had the time.

Rapid Fire
Napoleon at War aka the Flames of War of Napoleonics (not a single painted mini)
Infinity (still learning slowly, it's got a steep learning curve and no painted minis)
Uncharted Seas (Orcs, Bone Griffons, Dwarves all painted)
Firestorm Armada (Terran, Dindrenzi, Aquan Prime, Directorate all painted)
Ceck Your 6 (over 500 1/300 WWII aircraft painted over a period of 8 years)




hope to play Bolt Action by warlord games soon when it comes out.

Warhammer Fantasy. That is actually my primary game, I recently started 40k and still I prefer Fantasy anytime.

I play Star Wars Miniatures quite a bit, probably more so than 40K

Just starting Heroclix
Wanting to start 7TV, but waiting for mates to get their minis sorted.
I have played D&D minis, but not for a while.

I've recently been looking at starting a historical game. I like the look of Warlord Games Hail Caesar. I'd probably get an army of ancient Britons.

Chronopia (THE KING OF GAMES!)
Warmahordes
Malifaux
Battletech
Uncharted Seas
Starmada
AE-WWII
5150

Infinity, Heroclix, Star Wars Miniatures, Blood Bowl, Mordheim, B5 ACTA.

Rapid Fire and I have an Infinity Army that I intend to learn to play the game with at some point...

I wouldn't touch Warmahordes with a barge pole; never seen such ugly looking models o.O

I don't play 40k anymore either.
I also dropped Warmahordes for much the same reasons (unbalanced, overpriced, lousy treatment of customers, WAAC players...) although no PP player will ever admit there's a problem, of course.

I play... I guess now it's down to just Monsterpocalypse, GONU (Necromunda), and my homebrew 15mm sci-fi.

Currently playing mainly 40k but also dabble in Malifaux (but the crowd/interest is starting to fade), not too many other games locally that get much light ... maybe its time i move on from the hobby ... *sigh*

Currently:

15 mm Napoleonic
15 mm Athenians
40k
Warmahordes
Dreadfleet

I play Warmachine. And there's a problem (several actually).

High priced models. Sure you need less, but they're still up there with GW or higher.

Stealth price increases where things just go up (not sure if this is better or worse than GW's yearly announced version). They're jacking up metal prices like crazy despite tin prices actually falling over the last couple years.

Battle Engines and Colossals making the warjacks and warbeasts no longer the big thing on the table top, but instead, rendering them tiny in comparison.

How the Hordes field test was bungled with not enough time to properly test one change before a very, very drastic change was introduced in the next update.

Differing skill level players can't have a close game (is this a feature that skill matters more?). I've been playing for a good while and I find that I've got to intentionally not do the best possible move if I want relatively new players not to feel rolled over.

Putting game rules rather than just model rules in the yearly anthology expansion books. When Warmachine: Colossals comes out this summer, if you want all the rules present at the table, you'll need Prime, Wrath (to have battle engine rules and ranking officer rules) and Colossals (for the new big colossals and whatever other unit type they introduce). They're already making cards with the rules on them, so they should put ALL the rules for new releases on them and not put some on the cards and some in the rulebooks. I don't want to have 3+ rulebooks to have all the rules. I just want my mini-rulebook and my cards. It's like they're preparing everyone to buy the rules again in Prime Mk2: Remix like they did in MK1 with Prime: Remix.

Erratas & Infernal ruling. While it's awesome that they are willing to correct problems and provide official rules support via their forums, it sucks when some rules desputes can only be resolved by searching through old forum posts on their website. In MK1, they had a relatively okay (but not good) to use database system where you simply selected the models and it spat out all the rulings.

Production delays. They *still* haven't fixed the issues with keeping up with orders. My local store is now using three distributors and ordering directly from Privateer and items are still getting back ordered a lot.

They can't get missing parts, customer communication and issues with the web store straight. I know they're busy, but if you can't properly run a direct sales department, don't promote sales for anniversary bundles and then make people wait and wait.

I've been lucky about sportsmanship issues lately. The one WAAC player ended up moving away.

I've drastically slowed my purchasing (perhaps even stopped now that I think of it), but I still play regularly with my existing army.

I currently have armies for FoW and WHFB in addition to 40k. I am looking to sell out of FoW and WHFB, so this should change in the near future. Anyone wanting to buy a Russian tank company, Lizardmen, or Tomb Kings, hit me up in a couple weeks and I'll get an inventory together once I get back home.

I also play Warmachine and Hordes, but dont really enjoy them a lot either. I am turning out to be less a wargamer, and more a 40k player. No bad things to say about those games, but if I can't play 40k, I'd rather go shooting or spend time with the kids. Just too much crap.

Doing a lot of hunting humans, so my gaming is a little indisposed right now.

Living Gorkamorka. does that count?

Aside from 40k, i try to get a game of Warmachine in once & a while!

I have played a good number (Vor, infinity, FOW, warmahordes, AT-43, battletech, etc.) but only still collect/play 40k at this point.

Many games died. Warmahordes just changed too much from what it's charm was in the early days (and it's forum community had issues that I couldnt stomach).

40K just has too much to offer in terms of modelling opportunities to give up, and it is a system i can play with my kids which is a big plus these days...

I don't even play 40K anymore. Here is what I have played an actual game of in the last 12 months, in no particular order...

1. Blood Bowl (probably the game I play the most)
2. Aeronautica Imperialis
3. Aquanautica Imperialis
4. Gorkamorka- Da Deff Islands Skirmish
5. Force-On-Force
6. Battletech

Here are things I have been working on in the last 12 months, but not played....
1. Black Powder
2. Inquisitor 28
3. Necromunda
4. BFG

I'm also thinking of picking up...
1. Miniature Gladiators for some homebrew rules
2. Heavy Gear
3. Firestorm Armada

Generally I find that I will play half a dozen games a year of 40k. I then get bored either with the game itself, or just tired of playing unpainted Space Marines (usually BA or GK) week after week.

But I'm really getting into Infinity at the moment (I think the best game system/mechanics on the market, it has really raised the bar), but also regularly enjoy FoW, perhaps because the players of it at my club often make such an effort with painted armies on well made terrain and it's fun to have little tanks rolling down a road with cute little modelled hedges either side of it, then rotating the turrets/taking them out and replacing with modelled smoke etc.

Warhammer Fantasy and I started to collect a Warmachine army but ran out of money so they sit on the shelf until next payday.

Mordheim, Superheroes, Space Hulk (once i found space hulk i never played farty K ever again) Uncharted Seas from Spartan Games, Kings of War from Mantic, Armies of Arcana (especially for my 28mm ancients) , DBA, DBM (for my 15mm ancients), 'Dwarf Kings Hold' with all the expansions from Mantic.

40k, Malifaux, Warmahordes, occasionaly WHFB.

I also play MTG, and various RPGs including Iron Kingdoms, D&D and SLA Industries.
