  1. I'll start this off with the fact that I think 9th edition really bled me dry a bit. I got all the books for the armies that I have and had hoped that it was going to be my final edition. Of course 9th ended up being so convoluted for me that I have moved on to 10th. The thing is, I like my models. I like that I have options for armies. But honestly, due to gamer ADD, I rarely stick with one long enough to get more than a single game in during an edition. The solution to this seems simple....drop most of my armies. Focus on one or two and just play those from now on. Seems logical. That way in any edition, I only have one or two books to get. I can focus on that army, learn the rules, learn how to play them, and it would definitely help reduce the amount of new stuff to get each edition. My problem is though that I like my stuff. And every time I drop an army...I eventually end up regretting it, or worse, getting it again at a higher price as is the way of the GW hobby. I probably should get rid of probably half of my armies...but it seems like a huge disservice to all the work I did getting them in the first place. So basically I have a problem if I keep my armies, and I have a problem if I get rid of some of them. #1stWorldProblems

  2. Sorry for your loss, and dealing with things like that is rough. That said, also not uncommon around middle age and starting to experience those things. As well as more responsibility, less time for fun, etc. There's no magic answer, but over time you will find your way to enjoy the little things again. It's what your friend would want, as well as family. Regarding thinning the herd, don't get rid of it unless you plan to truly never use it again. I hadn't played fantasy since like 2007, and didn't intend to play again thus made sense. Blood bowl is an example where i leave it, then come back to it often enough. I play my Necrons all the time, thus will keep them I have an entire army of Orks acquired in trade, sometimes fun to just have silly games (Kill team or 40k) I got rid of space Smurfs, because they don't make me happy at all. If you have no storage problems, keeping it is fine. Don't thin the herd and regret it is what I'm hinting at.

  6. I think I was wrong about snobs. Looks like they obey all unit rules except blunders, so panic tokens, retreating, etc. are all fair game.

  8. Cycle 1 Complete Current state of the Campaign and Map https://yaktribe.games/underhive/campaign/the_deluge.21486/ <insert a photo of the updated Campaign Board here> We've had games from @Some_goob @Wienskeet @ninefinger and @sankaku_jime. Players will need to discard down to one Territory before receiving their next Claim, unless they've got an Influence Card - which I think just translates into @ninefingerdiscarding his Wasteland Ruins. Cycle 2 challenges can be made as soon as Gangers know their Claims (really anytime....) We can certainly still roll ppl in, if there's anyone that wants to jump on board, or sign folks up as Hive Scum mercenaries to play pickup games.

  9. getting excited to run the Inquisitor demo - hope I will be all ready in time lol. Sign-ups for the Saturday demo are full - but I may be looking to run more later Saturday or on Sunday if there is any interest. Although, I am really looking forward to checking out the other fun stuff going on at the Con. As far as I know - Tickets are available at the door both Saturday and Sunday - and pickup games will be possible for other games. -d

  10. I view our collections as a retirement investments. We’ll get to everything eventually 🙂 Having some of everything let’s us tinker as armies/additions evolve. All we have to get is books. Unless the increase to local gravity is too high, I’d say keep the stuff in your life that makes you happy.

  14. I believe happiness lies in hacking what kind of person you are. I can't stand losing stuff I've painted. So I don't. I instead budget money into buying storage solutions. I plan my conversions and don't "cheat" to get to the table faster, because I'll spend the money someday anyway. My solution? Don't really have one, but my 5 year old loves creepy and Gothic, so someone will probably inherit my Night Lords coming up. But bits boxes are forever.

  15. someone should start a "group" for this... like (not to make lite of an addiction problem" - but AA or something ... because I am sure there are lots of folks with this... "addiction"... myself included. -d
