+1 for the 40k comment.

+1 for the FOW comment.  Wosrt game ever written (including Mr Lincoln's War - at least those rules tried)

ok...

...play to win and play for fun.

...contribute by putting on games and just turn up to leach a place at the table.

...appreciate the efforts of other players painting, and criticise the efforts of other for not getting the epaullettes on those 10mm Napoleonics the right shade of pink.

...play one genre, one scale, one ruleset, and flit like butterflies over all sorts of genres/scales/rules.

actually 40k is an extremely tactical game - its just the tactics bear no resemblance to those that have ever or will ever be used on a battlefield.

my efforts....

those that paint eyeballs on 10mm and those who dont....

those that use movement trays and those who dont (i hate them!)....

those who play naval wargames with rules for individually targetted torpedos and those who are sane....
