    Plus it would take forever to paint the cunts.

    This is why chaos is a great-cheap army to run. Because the units are so expensive points-wise and they can fuck shit up too.

    Not even 1/4 of it was painted :lol:

    I probably went about it the wrong way, starting with the highly detailed special characters, then I'd be so sick of painting I couldn't be bothered with the plebs. Then a few months later I'd be so critical of my own painting that I'd stick my dudes in turps to start from scratch again...

    I started collecting when I was 9 so I have a fair bit. I don't play any more though, I'd like to, but it is something you really need to get into if you want to win and have a good looking army.

    As for Bloodbowl, it was Warhammer Fantasy, but you played a type of NFL football.
    All the races had a team and you could kill players and shit like that. Was pretty fun if you just wanted something different.

    Yeah last time I went into a games workshop must've been a good 8 years ago, cunts are hectic in there. Tactic books and all sorts, so much to it.

    You thought about selling some of your stuff? Some of the rarer special characters get some decent money on ebay.

    I'm not interested in selling them at this stage. I may down the track though.

    What warhammer video games are there? Are there any on PS3 that allow you to play a campaign as different races?
     
  7. Arheiner SIA Yates

    Not sure if there were any like that on PS3, mostly were PC games IIRC.

    My Yu-Gi-Oh cards will defeat your Warhammer, taking your life points to 0.
     
  9. Arheiner SIA Yates

    Yu-Gi-Oh is played by 40 year old rapists by with no life, 10 year olds who have NFI what they're doing and 15 year olds who think they're cool. Not sure which you count as tbh.

    What about my Dragonball Z and Pokemon card collections, I also have figurines.
     
  11. Iridium IT Lee

    Yea, there is the Dawn of War series but that was only on PC.
     
  12. Arheiner SIA Yates

    I dunno, those are at least for kids. Pokemon probably has its share of rapists though.
     
  13. Arheiner SIA Yates

    Blood bowl has its own game (Have that), and there there's Warhammer Online (Never played, so no idea) and that Space Marine game which was OK but didn't really sell.
     
  14. Escath LE Schaw

    None of them play like warhammer though. Games Workshop wouldn't let it happen when they can get so many more sales by selling overpriced miniatures.

    It's one of those hobbies that I feel I would enjoy a great deal if it wasn't for the cost.

    Another one is tabletop gaming, but that's probably more because it'd be so hard to find a group to play with.

    I would play still if I had the time. But yeah the prices are getting retarded and have been for a while. Still preferred games like Blood Bowl and Necromunda, and have NFI about recent editions of rules for most of my armies.

    They take so long to paint. Deadset 3-4hr job to paint one model.
     
  17. Escath LE Schaw

    Blood Bowl fits into the tabletop gaming category that I'd love cause I'm a geek but can't find anyone else to play with :(
     
  18. Arheiner SIA Yates

    Depends on the amount of details, and if you're painting models one at a time. It's normally easier to paint a squad over 3-4 days and let it dry IMO. Maybe 1 hour work a day?

    Jump on ebay, cheap stuff everywhere then download a pdf of the codex.

    cheap as chips.
     
  20. Arheiner SIA Yates

    So get the game, its like $10. Some stores may play it, most likely GW and Vagabonds (You're in Auckland right?)
