"Clearly not a war gamer" Topic

1.

#3 … yes, it's an illness, and my doctor is very well aware of the condition. Treatment so far has not been working.

Not at all-
Wargaming is by far my least expensive hobby ,I doubt I spend more than 5k$ a year on it adding in the extras(books,etc ) maybe 10K$.
Still my cheapest hobby .

My purchases are minimal, and while I may purchase rules online, a large percentage of my admittedly small lead collectiin is purchased at conventions. Despite my comparatively paltry expenditures, I do consider myself a wargamer because I play wit toy soldiers. And because my heart is pure.

Well 1 and 3 : I could do with buying nothing new – and if I did I make clear part of the backlog which would make a huge difference.

So – 1 and 3.

Almost a one 1 (I have one pack of figures I must buy this year to finish a project.)

I also have enough stuff coming pre-paid via Kickstarter from last year, that I might be able to keep myself distracted.

1, unless it is acquiring commissioned figures. The few things I still want no one makes in my chosen scale so it is either commission or do with out (or get lucky if someone finally makes them – unlikely since they are all zoological of the natural variety with minimal demand). Have one commission in progress, after that, finances permitting, a couple of more. Then done. Like others, any further funds will go towards having figures painted – or much more likely disposing of excess figures. I could part with 75% of my figures and still have A LOT.
