It's zombies for me, I have a few hundred in 15mm right now, and I still can't resist getting more. Once I start on the Pendraken ones, I'll be doing the same again, just in 10mm.... :o

Me too but in 10mm.  I have 20 units of 3 bases each: five minis to a base.  That's a lotta flesh  :D

As if I'm some serial agitator! I'm just want the Centurion for the Korean War.

However, the T60 release has reminded me that the T35 is very much missing, and of course there are no Byzantines. Oh and some early chariot armies would be nice, and I've not put my foot into 10mm Napoleonics yet, but some rocket troops would be necessary ...

Bases don't count: you "need" them.  Although there is something satisfying about seeing 200 or so bases stacked up.
