My Alternative Q & A's!

Having read some of the results of the '20 Questions' which has been going around just lately I thought I'd ask a few questions of myself (as I really can't be arsed to answer all the original questions!)

1. Favourite wargaming eras:

My first dabble as a kid was WWII closely followed by Napoleonic.... though I've never found a rule system that I could 100% stick to for either era. This usually causes me to become extremely bored and hence I tend to switch constantly between the two.

2. Wargaming era / genre / scale I'd like to try in the future:

I would like to try ACW in 10mm at some point. Whether that will ever happen is anyone's guess.

3. Least favourite gaming era / genre:

 Fantasy ... I just don't get it and it's players are usually quite disturbed. I once overheard a conversation at some show or other where two Goth types were seriously discussing 'spells'...... Wargamers shouldn't be associated with these people. 'Play historical games or get out' would be my club motto....If I had a club....Which I haven't. ....Also anyone that plays sports-based figure games .... ???? WTF is that about?

4. Favourite General:

Napoleon.
