The Lure of Warhammer
A long time ago, in a mall far far away.... I walked by a gamestore and first saw a tabletop war game being played. It was Warhammer Fantasy and I was hooked on the idea of doing something that combined my then boyish love of toy soldiers and board games. Well a few years have gone by and I still don't have the High Elf army I fell in love with way back then although I do have the basis for it in a storage box somewhere. With all the rules changes and the high cost of miniatures I drifted away from Warhammer. This was propelled along by finding a great group of historical wargamers, which precipitated a foray into Napoleonics (still in progress), and then a massive digression into Flames of War (still without a full sized game being played.) Anyways now I have moved again and the local gaming community is Warhammer and Warmahordes based, and the siren song of Warhammer is tempting back into its fell clutches. I don't think I will be able to resist....

Did you move again? Where are you?
ReplyDeleteI did move again, I moved up to Fort St John to work for the summer. I'm thinking I should have called my blog "The Nomadic Gamer"
