Other – I ONLY collect what I'm interested in.

Jamesonsafari08 Oct 2015 3:41 a.m. PST

Yes, but I will play what my friends are interested in

I collect both sides so I play/collect what I am interested in.

Frederick Supporting Member of TMP08 Oct 2015 5:27 a.m. PST

All of the above – for a long time I was in a place where there were no other gamers so I collected both sides for the armies I am interested in; I still only paint what I am interested in but I will play what the guys at the club are playing

Both – I am working on a project painting ACW for brother on brother or other skirmish rules not decided that yet. Then I took a break and painted up a bunch of blitzkrieg Germans since most of the local guys are into Bolt Action.

+1 Flashman14

Totally in sync with Jamesonsafari

Absolutely right, Who asked this joker

I buy what I want. I have gone in with a couple of group projects, but I do it because it is something I am interested in, not simply because others are doing it.

I have over 2,000 figures for the Paraguayan War. You know I am collecting for myself.

I also collect and paint anyone who fought against the Romans. One day I will actually win a game with those armies. One day {sigh}…

The Beast Rampant08 Oct 2015 9:09 a.m. PST

Another +1 to Flashman14. Modifiers are cumulative.

Terrement08 Oct 2015 9:46 a.m. PST

Other. I only collect and play what I am interested in.

100% solo gamer.

Scorpio08 Oct 2015 12:50 p.m. PST

I definitely have become interested in something because others in the playgroup are into it. But if it's not my thing, I won't get in just because it's what they are playing.

nazrat08 Oct 2015 1:25 p.m. PST

I've NEVER bought into any system or line of miniatures that -I- didn't actually want.

Mithmee08 Oct 2015 2:53 p.m. PST

I play for myself

Old Contemptibles08 Oct 2015 3:44 p.m. PST

I collect, play and run periods and rules I like. But if someone else provides the figures etc. then I will play.

Mute Bystander09 Oct 2015 4:56 a.m. PST

90% agree with Rallynow – there are some rules, some scenarios, and some people…

Old Contemptibles09 Oct 2015 3:52 p.m. PST

Yeah, now that you brought it up, there are those other folks, I try to avoid.

Syrinx013 Oct 2015 7:40 p.m. PST

I only collect what I like but I will play in other periods and rule sets if other players in my group provide them.
