You were asked – TMP link On a scale from 0 (no guilt) to 10 (maximum guilt), how guilty do you feel about all the stuff you've bought and never used? Average response: 2.5 |

I've had a lot of painting time this year. I've purchased a fair number of figures – of which all have been painted – but the lead pile has taken a significant dent too. That assuages much of my guilt. |

Only regrets for the figs I've sold. |

I don't think I have any figs I've never used. Maybe an odd unit here or there, but every collection I have has been gamed with multiple times. Tho my 15mm Napoleonics see the least action as my club have shedloads on site so why travel? |

Extra Crispy That sounds like poll right there how many of the periods you own have you played with? I have 23 periods
one that I haven't used yet but I'm just finishing it now.
One that's only been used solo.
two that have never been used but are complete, until I start using them:-)
3 are nowhere near completion |

Zero guilt. This is especially true since retirement when I started to sell off my war game surplus. It's amazing how much I have sold without feeling like I gave up anything I actually wanted to keep. The funding to the War Department have allowed me to indulge in new purchases totally guilt free. |

+1 for that I think back to the days spent packing and loading the truck for our move to Florida, I could've packed 90%-100% of my stuff into the nooks and cubbies. I had all those empty drawers, DOH!!! |
