"Two favorite Era's to game, And the one era that you want to" Topic

Give me the two you enjoy the most and the era you haven't gamed can be either they don't make figs for it , you don't have the figs yet or no one else wants to but you .

Mine are : 1) AWI
2) 19th Cent.Colonial
The one I want to game : Paraguayan War

AWI – by a wide margin for 1st place (for me) and then, probably, Old West. Haven't gamed? Harder, I'd have to go with haven't collected – and that would be the Vietnam conflict. Too close to home – just a year or two to young to have been draft eligible, know too many vets, too hard to replicate well on the table.

Now, best period to put no the table – that has to be the Seven Years War.

WW2 and Science Fiction.

Danish-German war of 1848-50. Too obscure for many and only a few miniatures ranges out there.

British Colonial (TSATF) & Ancients (DBA)
Want to: Mexican American War (Just have no time to start another period)

AWI and WWII

FPW

Ancients and WW2
One I want to do: Renaissance

Faves: Judge Dredd and Conan (though those will change month to month or so)

Want to: The Crimean War

WW2 and ACW are favorites, but followed closely by Colonial and modern/zombie.

Not done yet probably 28mm SCi Fi.

My favorite two are WW II and Napoleonics.

I would like to game either 100 Years War or ancient Rome

Mike

1) Napoleonic
2) Victorian Adventure/Scifi/Horror/Steam

3) WW2 North Africa

Renaissance
Dark Ages

Farroupilhians Revolution (Brazil 1835-1845)

Favorites Napoleonic c. 1809 and WWII c. 1942--famous, asymmetric and plenty of possible combinations.

The one I want to and (almost) never have is Barsoomian skirmish. I have lead, terrain, rules--and no opponents. Very sad.

1. WW2
2. Fantasy

Odd: Steampunk

1) War of the Roses
2) Boer war (still painting the British and Australians).

Would love to do the Great seige of Malta but still waiting for Warlord Games to release more miniatures.

Pulp
Colonial

ECW

I was always interested in the Crimean War, amassed a lot of figures, painted a few. Never went further as no one in the club was interested and I would have to paint both sides.

AWI and ACW, followed closely by WWII
I"d like to try Boer War.

WWII
Colonials

Ancients

18th Century and Civil War.

None.. I' already game in the areas that have an interest for me.

Colonials and Dark Ages.

Colonials
Napoleonics

I find Ancient/Medieval China visually fascinating, but I've never done anything about it.

AWI first.
Close tie for second and third between WWII and British Colonial.
One I have been dilletanting around with for years is Jacobites. Every year I get around 10 Highlanders finished. At this rate…

Colonials and WW2.

Indochina.

Medieval
WW2 east front

And Irish rebellion 1798

ACW and Napoleonics are the firm favourites.

Crimean War, if Blue Moon ever do a 15mm range!

Naval and TYW era.

Colonial

It's hard to limit the list to two …

1st Tier: ACW (active) & Napoleonics (hiatus)
2nd Tier: Late Rome (active) & Colonials (hiatus)

Wish List: Samurai!

Hmmm. Probably Second World War then Napoleonics.

I wouldn't mind Cold War one hot, I suppose.

1. Second Afghan War (1878-1880)
2. 14th-15th Century European Medievals

Wish List: Biblical Era/Chariot Wars

League of Augsburg (9YW), Naooleonics
Would like to game Mongol invasions of Europe.

1. Back of Beyond
2. Pulp
I would really like to game Tribal conflicts, Dayak vs Dayak vs Melanesians, Pre and Post Contact Hawaiians, Maori etc.

AWI is my favorite followed by ACW. I would like to game the Crimean war.

Favorites: ACW, Napoleonic & Fantasy (oops, that's 3).

Would love to try WW1 (1914) on a large scale ie. Division/Corps engagements.

Favorites: 1. Napoleonic (land). 2. World War I (naval)
Would like to try War of the Spanish Succession (land).

Nap and generic early to mid 18th century

would like to start First Schleswig Holstein War with the Grand Maneuver Rules.

Dark Ages and Samurai

Frostgrave

FPW and 7YW

Want to do pony wars (in progress)

1: Pulp
2: Western

3: Pirates or Colonial or Horror (more)

Two favorites for me are 18th century horse and musket (anything in tricornes) and ancients (again using the broad church method to include dark ages and medieval).

Like to do: pirates-the perfect excuse to do narrative adventures, ship to ship combat, and swashbuckling action.

1. ACW
2. Napoleonics
3. WW2

In the future AWI / 7YW

Sci Fi
American Civil War

Apocalyptic Road Warrior or American Revolution

Dammit Murphy! Ya stole my favorites!
The rest is a toss-up between Pre-contact Easter Woodland Indian conflicts/FIW and SciFi (Mark Ratner's Space Marine and Starguard)

Interesting there's quite few colonials players/lovers.

It's something we play on-and-off, but it didn't know it was so popular generally.

Oh and:
