I am so board and agitated that I just want to paint models to a high standard show them off to my friends on game night and refuse to ever play. I only have one friend in a gaming group of five or so members that has any interest in anything other than WAAC tournament style play, I am highly invested monetarily in the game but I spent most of my money on units that I think look cool. I love to build and paint, but tournament play is not for me.

I love the building a narrative sections of the book and all of the optional rules and creative possiblites of recreating- battles, creating your own scenarios and missions, campaigns and and anything that is NOT eternal war but my gaming group insists "People don't play that way. People play for competition." and "It's a table top stratagie game built for balance." even though to me it is obvious that to me this is not the case.

Finding a new gaming group is not an option so I am left with two options. Play with the one player that has interest in other things besides eternal snore, aka fight over the 1996 penny with the number 4 drawn on it aka set up 24" away and shoot the piss out of each other and hope you kill more of them than they kill of you aka capture the relic, no wait just hope they go for the relic and then surround them and shoot the piss out of them for their stupidity if not then set up 24" away and shoot the piss out of the opposing player aka squat on objectives and kill anyone that comes near you because you have more objectives at the start of the game, or just give up the game and paint models not restricting myself to units in armies that I can field.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4777878.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4777878.page GMT eternal war? eternal snore
No, I don't think they are uninteresting. First Blood balances week MSU out. Objectives require mobility. The missions are much more varied than 6th edition and secondary objectives give you a way to push away from draws.

Obviously it isn't the most balanced game on the planet.

If your gaming group doesn't meet your needs maybe think about a different group?

if your store/club is very competitive, then chances are you are not the only hobby gamer that is alienated. You just need to find them.

Where are you located? You might want to go to the Find a Game forum and post a new thread there (something you haven't done yet that I have seen).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4778153.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4778153.page GMT eternal war? eternal snore GW and they don't even play weekly games. the one time that I did go there it was the same old WAAC tourny style games and I am not willing to drive an hour to play that kind of game. perhaps I will send the store an e-mail and see if they know of anyone who may be interested in a different kind of game

I'm in a similar boat as you. The only gaming store within 1.5 hours is 20 minutes away, but only ever does Magic the Gathering.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4778748.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4778748.page GMT eternal war? eternal snore http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4779218.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/476984/4779218.page GMT
