Playing Warhammer

Post by - human »

I was always wondering, how many of you guys play very often? I'd also like to find out who goes to tournaments regularily, if they go to GT's or Rogue Trader tournaments, maybe local gaming clubs, whatever. I just want to know how often you guys get to play.

I actually play very little. I only have a few friends who play Warhammer and i haven't gone to the store yet to play. If it were possible, i would have asked for some opponents for christmas! :cry:

:roll:

I play not so often like 4 times or 5 a month :cry: :cry:

but that's because a friend ( Shadowblade... ) and i are almost the only ones that like to play nearby ( Medellín, Colombia ) but we are trying to find more opponents....

yeah and its annoying when one of your few opponent plays a race you don't like to play against... I'm so sick of long gruelling games versus dwarfs :(

I play more often of late. I get in at least one game a week, sometimes several. I like to participate in every tournament I find, though that isn't many. :(

I would really like that all my friends were player but mostly all of them says things like:" I would buy warhammer but it is too expensive" :( and " i like the minis but it is too hard to paint them ".... :( :(

ME unfortunatly i only get about one daya month for gaming :cry:

But i seem to have an ability to brainstrom in my calculator so it may seem i play alot more often
I'd rather lose a closely fought game then have it all sown up in a couple of turns.

Strangely, been here longer than most of the Admin staff.......

I don't have enough models yet to play in tourneys. :oops: Besides, there really aren't that many fantasy ones here in the great desert with the lake. :(
Well, time WOULD be nice...
And, Storm of Chaos is here. Are you ready?

I used to go to a club every couple of weeks to play, but fell out of the habit when the exams came along. I may start up again when I get a little more time, and some more models, but right now I haven't played a game in a few months.

I play a few times a week. I have two boards in my garage, and 6 armies to choose from. I don't play in tournaments, but I have a big group of friends who play.

Vendui !
I didn't play yet ... And I don't think that I will in the near future. First, I don't know anyone just as Symphony of Silence who plays Warhammer. Even if they would like to start, it's to expensive. Second, there was an store for maniacs in second biggest city in Poland which I live near, but now is gone :(.
