Based on the below post I was wondering "What wargaming related guilty pleasures do you have?" TMP link For me first I like to read AARs,
second "historical" movies – even if the history is not great I still enjoy them. |

Buying rules that I will likely never play |

OR seeing games on YouTube…but only if the clip is condensed (I don't want to see every second of the game, just the summary). But I'm with Warwell regarding rules, too. Rob |

I just keep buying figures and that has turned into a race to complete them all before I'm recalled to the "mothership" …  |

Seeing some battle or other that looks gameable, then rushing out and buying figures for it despite the fact that there are four other "projects" in line ahead of it. * Spreading my painting time over those five projects, plus a few more. * This is a partial explanation why I'm watching the mail for a package from Old Glory with my third pack of Queens Rangers and another from the Warstore with QR artillery.
This pushes back my…. |

Building (or at least planning!) Amazon armies built on real army lists from the Classical era and insisting they are semi-historical at the very least |

Rules and figures that are shiny, but may never be used or march onto the table top! Tally Ho! |

Way too many civilian figures.
Converting civilian figures of people I know.
Adding tattoos to figures. |

A guilty pleasure is something you do that you're somewhat ashamed of doing. I don't feel guilty about doing any of the things on the poll that I actually do (e.g., "I like historical movies even if the history is not great."), and I don't actually do the things that I would feel guilty about doing (e.g., "I hide my purchases from my spouse."). So I guess I'm voting "none of these/no opinion". |

Perhaps wargaming itself is a 'guilty pleasure'? My wife manages to make me feel slightly guilty about spending the odd day gaming with my friends… |
shows us that you don't need money to have great bases.
