Discussion Topics:

1          Wargamers and our Image :

            To the general public, wargamers are nothing but basement dwelling, acne ridden fat teenagers with no social skills or personal hygiene. As the hobby has grown and the demographics of who we as wargamers are has changed how accurate is this image? How does it differ in the US and Overseas? What can we as wargamers do to help bring our hobby the same level of acceptance slowly being gained by video games and comic culture? If Geek is the new Sheik, why are we still the bottom of the nerd ladder?

2          Wargaming and the Internet, the role of the MetaGame.

            As Wargaming has grown and the acceptance of forums, blogs, and large national and international tournament competitions have become common, the internet has assumed a very prominent role in Wargaming. What some call the Metagame, the idea of internet collaboration on army design, scouting, tactics forums and discussions and statistical analysis has become part of many of our hobby. How does this help or hurt the hobby? Does it make you a more competitive gamer, or just a ânet decking copycat? Is this practice more common in the US or overseas. Does it effect some types of games more than others, and what part if any does it play in your enjoyment of the hobby.

3          Warhammer 40k 5th Edition.

            With the release of numerous full preview editions of the rulebook and the changes now public knowledge what impact do you think these changes will have on 40k in particular and the hobby in general. If you have drifted from 40k in recent years will this pull you back, or push you further away. If you are a hardcore 40k fan boy, are you happy or upset with the changes, and which of the changes do you think will make the biggest impact on the way the game is played?

Discussion Topics:

Professionally Painted Miniatures: We will discuss and debate what place, if any, professionally painted miniatures and armies have in the hobby. From pre painted miniatures games like AT-43 and Star Wars Miniatures to professional painting services and Ebay purchased armies, we will cover all aspects of this fascinating issue.


Pre-Painted Miniatures Games: Here we will focus on the various pre painted miniatures games themselves. How do they compare with the classic style miniatures games like Warhammer, 40k and Warmachine. Are they a way to get new people into our hobby or are they a distraction that only appeals to the lowest common denominator. We will have a lively discussion with supporters and detractors of this style of gaming.


Why do you Love your Favorite Game: All the hosts will discuss what their favorite miniatures wargame is and why. We will not try to decide which is better but only to determine what it is that makes each game stand out for each of our hosts.
