I play warhammer 40k, WHFB and Necromunda, though the former takes up more of my play time than the latter.

I'm also thinking of selling my Fantasy army and using the money to get a warmachine force.

I play 40k and blood bowl regularly, I have played other non GW games but I just dont really take to them, I will play them if someone else brings them though.
I used to play Space hulk, Necromunda and Epic scale more than 40k but I find it harder to find folks to play em with nowadays.

40K only and then very seldom, but I love the fluff!

A Heretic may see the truth and seek redemption. He may be forgiven his past and will be absolved in death. A Traitor can never be forgiven. A Traitor will never find peace in this world or the next. There is nothing as wretched or as hated in all the world as a Traitor. - Cardinal Khrysdam, Instructum Absolutio

At present I only play one wargame, 40K, I have three different armies plus a few random Space Wolves.

But I do play plenty of RPGs and Board games and have three game nights a week.

I do want to play more wargames and have my sights set on Hail Caesar, Bolt Action and 7TV. But with rising housing costs I can't afford to start another big game right now.

Apologies for talking positively about games I enjoy.

Then play a small game? Malifaux and Infinity are calling. They want to be friends.

So does Mercs, the budget wargame game amongst budget wargames.

I currently only play 40k, but I have been looking to get into fantasy for quite some time.

The problem is that much of the core units are dated models. I'm not really a big fan of buying 50 of the same thing if I'm not in love with the model. I have some VC miniatures that I picked up for 40% off (vargulf, konrad, blood knights), but I figure I may as well wait for 9th and the WE update before I commit myself.

I was also considering FoW, but I'd be more in it for the models.... and I figured I'd rather just buy 1/32 scale tanks with much higher detail.

I'm more of a modeller which eliminates great games like x-wing right off the bat :(

    In some (or a lot) of cases, many of us have these armies, and maybe play one or two games a quarter of these systems. For Q3, my main game is shaping up to be Bolt Action, while Q1 and Q2 it was Malifaux and 40k. Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 of 2012 saw Warmahordes as my main game.

    I'm only playing three right now, but mostly that's an issue of affordability of getting into new games. I can't justify the expense of starting new systems right now as I have other financial issues taking priority.

    I already have plenty of smaller games, lots of D&D minis, all the Star Wars minis (which can also be used for Star Wars Miniature Battles by WEG), lots of Heroclix, plenty of minis for 7TV/Doctor Who miniatures

    I do already have some Malifaux, but the metal minis killed it for me. Infinity look amazing, but Metal is putting me off again.
    Now Mantic are moving to plastic I may give them another look, but it really is Bolt Action and Hail Caesar that have my interest.
