It was inevitable.Fully expected and deserved.
In the direction of figure painting or gaming ?Went to the UK Games Expo at the NEC on a whim yesterday and it rekindled something dormant in me since I was about 11, I’ve suddenly got the urge to paint a miniature despite not having touched it for 30+ years. Maybe even actually learn to play the game.
Anyone willing to admit they’re into this stuff and can point me in a good starting direction?
ERM,heard that story before,picked the wrong code again,dumbasses!never tried Warhammer or D&D or anything like that which is weird really as I'm 100% geek and its exactly the sort of thing people would expect me to be into
there used to be Geek Retreat in town but I believe they got booted out by the council so you'd probably have to head to Brum to find something similar.
I used to collect and paint warhammer. Back when the shop used to be upstairs in cathedral lanes. Never played it and wouldn't know where to even start but used to enjoy collecting and painting them. I found it really relaxing. I used to collect the space marines and paint them in blue and yellow. Are they still a team?

I collected and painted the original Warhammer when I was a child...the idea of the game was always better than the reality of it.
Similar to a few here I tried to get into it with the space Warhammer but I found the game itself impenetrable and without wanting to generalise too much, the people who were into it were a bit too into it for my liking. Ended up painting the figures and just using them as toys which I enjoyed a lot more. I did however like the similar but more board gamey ones they did with Heroquest and Blood Bowl, got on better there.
I was reminded of it all when I saw that Heroquest was being remade but then I saw the price, £100? What the fuck!

It sounds like someone is on the verge of having a midlife crisis.Was looking at a game at the expo at the weekend and thought “oh that looks cool” base game was £250! A lot of this stuff is low production run I guess but even so!
