In your gaming group, do you consider yourself a leader or a follower? |
The Beast Rampant | 13 Apr 2016 3:46 p.m. PST |
I am the corporal bumped up to brigadier general. Big Chief Two-Feathers. |
Saber6 | 13 Apr 2016 3:55 p.m. PST |
AS I am the group I'm the leader until I disagree with him |

I have all the figs, all the terrain, a dedicated game room, the rule books, a wargaming blog. I write the scenarios, host the game night, and clean up the next day. So I'm guessing "leader." |

I tried to lead, no one followed. Now 'm just a merc for hire. |
dBerczerk | 13 Apr 2016 6:04 p.m. PST |
When I can't lead, I follow. When I can't follow, I get out of the way. |
Jamesonsafari | 13 Apr 2016 6:05 p.m. PST |
What Dentatus said, but if one of the gang wants to put on a game I'll just make the table available and send out the invites |
Toronto48 | 13 Apr 2016 6:12 p.m. PST |
Normally follower unless I have an incentive to become more involved say as a GM |

Follower, unless provoked. |
Coyotepunc and Hatshepsuut | 13 Apr 2016 9:29 p.m. PST |
Bashytubits is our leader. |
basileus66 | 13 Apr 2016 10:02 p.m. PST |
Neither. I am the grumpy, middle-aged man, who sits in a corner and whines about how "youns nowadays don't game properly" while casts ugly looks to those cheeky boys that seem to enjoy the unhistorical ruleset of the month a bit too much!. |

Our little group is very much a democracy: I'd have to say no clear leaders or followers. |
Yesthatphil | 14 Apr 2016 2:18 a.m. PST |
Our little group is more of an anarcho-syndacalist collective, really … Obviously I'm more of a follower than a leader. Phil |

There is an old saying about having too many chiefs and not enough Indians. Also, Manager vs. Leader: manager is a title that someone can be appointed to, whereas a leader is simply followed. An example, officer with the rank of General is a manager and may or may not be a leader too. A true leader may come from any rank. Saying you are a leader does not make it so. Others will determine if you are the real leader. As for me, sometimes I'm a follower, very rarely do I lead, and most of the time get out of the way and do my own thing. |
Rich Bliss | 14 Apr 2016 3:21 p.m. PST |
Leader. Curse of the first born. |
Ewan Hoosami | 15 Apr 2016 4:39 a.m. PST |
Neither, I just do my own thing and usually nobody else quite understands what it is I'm doing. |

SWMBO is the leader. I am the operations officer. |
Herkybird | 17 Apr 2016 2:05 a.m. PST |
I think I am a reluctant leader. |
War Artisan | 17 Apr 2016 6:34 a.m. PST |
Neither. Anarchist and loose cannon. |
138SquadronRAF | 18 Apr 2016 9:06 a.m. PST |
Another anarchist and loose cannon. Sometimes I poke War Artisan enough that he gets something organised. |

I have to say I am one of several local leaders. I consider anyone a leader that games with their own figures and terrain at their house. Who furnishes the scenario and sets up the game. Does all of this to a regular schedule. Who makes an effort to get players to show up. Also may be the motivator for local conventions and club meetings. If your setting the agenda and what games are being played, then you too maybe a leader. |
