Build a company of my custom Brotherhood chapter, buy shares of GW (nice idea by the way) and FW. Put the rest in the bank and build up interest so I can buy 40k models forever.

I would finish my VC's and work on my other dream armies like a pre heresy WB army.

Buy a team of painters and commission FW to make Steel Legion and Ghazzy's WAAAGH, then get an all FW army of those and Black Templars and do out the battle of Helsreach

Buy out GW, put an end to its madness

IA 12 when its out and complete my Krieg army.

Spend a fortune on forgeworld and make my pre-heresy thousand sons

...and finsih my grey knights to about 5000 points.

Buy GW and sell the everlovin' snot out of the products. Marketing, army deals, loyalty progams, close the shops, support indys, and hire Rhinholt from Warseer as Head Cook and Bottle Washer.

Easy. I'd get rid of it all. I'm stupid rich now! I can find much sweeter things to do!

Buy a ton of GW stuff and a new home to house it in.

I also liked the idea of starting a charity for underprivileged TT gamers it sounds kinda awesome.

Quit my job. Go to GW and say hey hire me for benefits and minimum wage only and I'll buy at least 1 of everything you ever make (of course at the GW employee price, but hey it's still a profit for them), then I would pay some talented high school kid to build and possibly everything in exchange for product. I'd be a cool GW worker, every other week keep the shop open till midnight on Saturday or Friday, with my giant sum of money I would have paints covered for anyone who comes in to paint. I've thought a lot about this obviously.

Build a gaming store/bar. A titan legion a tau hunter cadre, an eldar strikeforce, a couple of Nid big gribbilies an ork mob, and a large chaos force.

Then i would hang with my friends.

It's funny, because about 20 minutes after I read this thread earlier today, my mom came home. Apparently she won the lottery this week. But she didn't win enough to pay for even a single Sister Superior. She won 10 Canadian dollars. (Sister Superiors are like 14-15 dollars plus taxes)

I guess the more accurate phrasing would be, "she won some money in the lottery," but where's the fun in phrasing it like that?

On the actual topic, I dunno what 40k stuff I'd get if I played and won the lottery. I've got pretty much everything I need for my armies. Might flesh out my Scout Bikers with a few more models. Might get a Dakkajet for my Orks if my mom wants to try one. Maybe I'd get a couple more boxes of Scouts on foot and make a third squad if I feel like playing somewhat bigger games. Maybe a unit of War Walkers for my Eldar. Maybe a few more Leman Russes so I can have at least one with each type of turret weapon (currently missing Eradicator, Vanquisher, and Punisher, but I have two of each of the others). Probably I'd see about getting some Forge World Tigrus-pattern Bolters and some studded shoulderpad bits from a bitz site, and make some Sternguard. But now I'm just getting into expanding my armies with random gak I'd probably use once in a blue moon.

hmm....

not sure what i would do...

buy an armor cast titan from a guy i know. Its a reaver with duel gatling guns on it and missile launcher on the back.

buy enough parts and plasticard to build all the stuff i want.

then not sure...

I'd make alot of ebay sellers happy...

As long as those sellers have Sisters of Battle, Eldar, Chaos Marines, Diaz Daemonettes, and Stormtroopers.

I priced up the cost of the Enitre Blood Angels Chapter, based on the chapter breakdown in the codex once, cam to like £24000, I'd buy that. And have it commissioned.

I'd work on the FT Chapter. Far less models.

More like forever alone.

Models aren't an issue when you are a millionare! If I won the Euro lotto jackpot, I'd buy controlling shares in GW. If I could afford them, how much would this cost?

Well I'd spend it on r&d to get a swag necrodermis body I mean who really needs a soul when you live forever lol.

Option 2 I'm buying myself a land raider, not the model I mean, this thing better wreck some house and burn promethium and kill heretics in the name of the emperor!

Lotteries around here probably wouldn't give enough to buy even a majority in GW (though I've no idea how much that would actually require). This week is a record amount and it's only 12,5 million euros.

But I'd definitely buy more models, some Steel Legion, more marines, CSM and Orks... maybe even commission some custom sculpts And of course terrain etc for a kickass gaming table at the new house I'd build

A real-life SM bike would be awesome too as someone mentioned, however I'm a bit terrified of motorcycles because being the absent-minded guy I am I'd probably get myself killed with one, getting lost in thought like I do driving a car. Now, a M103 converted into a Rhino on the other hand..! Or maybe just a scratch-built project made from lighter materials and an engine to match that wouldn't consume copious amounts of gasoline/diesel.

The FW rhino painted up FT.

Who needs human contact? I've got millions of dollars and millions of miniatures!

Purchase some retail space. A lot of it. Commission tons of tables/terrain. Call some vendors, companies, and promoters. Sign talent for panels. Start GraniteCon.

I would by the house next to us, just because I need more rooms.
Than I would take the biggest room and turn it into a WH-gaming place.

I would also get a large BA and Necron-army, pro-painted just the way I want it.
And I'd probably buy lots of FW stuff.

If I won millions on lottery I would buy GW, simple as that.

Then I can go to work and make a company that actually listen to it's customers and fans and push to introduce 40k to much larger masses.

Then hire Piter Jackson to do 40k movie.

How much does your lottery hand out? :O

Not much, anywhere from 500 million to 1 billion Euros.

I'd go for a titan legion as well, it's something I'd never consider normally but if I had the money to burn yeah.

I seem to remember GW shares were worth about 180m. However, if it got round someone was buying them up the price would rise. Plus I think GW shares have to be sold by the people holding them rather than you just putting money into them.

I would rather invest in some of the smaller games companies making product I liked.

bomb shelter, full of 40k and fantasy and bourbons

Buy GW and promptly shut them down.
