Tabletop Gamers UNITE!

[Kiutu]

I havent played Magic in awhile either, but they always add rules so Id prefer to play with people who play older stuff. I still can though, and a few weeks ago I played with my dad, brother, and dad's buddies and though manipulation and timing..and luck, I won.
Currently me and my brother are starting up a DnD group, though we have never actually played PnP. Neither has his friends who will be the rets of the group so we have an edge, and I will be DM probably and we can always do it our way.

Wish I could find a DnD group in Glasgow.

I think they remade it recently. Lots of fun again, much more so than the main games of 40K and WFB. Myself, I play a bit of the above with some warmachine.

I doubt it, Game Workshop seems to have abandoned all those smaller games from back in the day... WHQ, Space Hulk, Necromunda, etc..

You can still play them though! I've got a lot of the pdfs from before they took down the SG site, so myself and my mates still have lots of fun.

EDIT: I was thinking of this though: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warhammer_Fantasy_Roleplay. Now that game is a lot of fun. Not Quest, though I've played that, Hero Quest and Space Hulk.

Oh, of course I still play, the link in my original post is a website for hardcore WHQ players, you can make new dungeons and quests that weren't initially included. It's fantastic.

-Any of the Blizzard board games (Warcraft, WoW, Starcraft) are pretty fun and very simple.
-Talisman: Simple. And also: fun.

My friend had the Starcraft board game... but it was in his trunk when he got into a car accident and he didn't take it out before getting rid of the car. So I never go to play it.. *sigh*.

He also keeps trying to get me to play Talisman, I have yet to try it.

DUDE I totally forgot about Magic!!!!

Best damn TCG I've ever played.

 

[santaandy]

Magic: the Gathering is my CCG of choice. D&D Minis/RPG is good too. Why is everyone so down on 4e, I actually hear good things about it.

Play it but be aggressive. The game is a bit naff if people just play passively and just try to better themselves as best they can.

A few years back, some co-workers got me playing Magic: The Gathering. Unfortunately I don't see them much anymore and no one else I know plays. Plus I never really got the rules down, so I can't really teach anyone else to play. So I've been stuck now with hundreds of Magic cards that I keep in a drawer next to my condoms (No joke).

The drawer is labeled, "Things that prevent my dick from touching a vagina."

In all seriousness though, I really enjoy Space Hulk. My boss and I used to have a game set up in his office we would play when we could get around to it.

I'm also a big fan of D&D for Dummies, known as Hero Quest. It's kinda dumb overall but it has a certain charm to it that I can't quite explain (or understand).

Basically.... actually I don't use condoms anymore, but I thought it'd be funnier than saying "drawer where I USED to keep my condoms". But they did, for a time, share the same space.

We actually use Hero Quest figures for Warhammer Quest... they essentially use the same monsters.

 

[HillDragon]

I play pretty much everything.

More like anything for me. =P

Munchkin. It's An rpg, in card form. And quite humorous.

Oh, yeah. I've got a big soft spot for Steve Jackson and his band of merry men. I'm a cheapAss gamer all the way.

My son's finally old enough to play Pokemon, I'd been saving those damn cards for 6 years! He doesn't yet grasp the concept of strategy but we still have lots of fun

Other than that my main stays are:

Spoiler: ~stupid long list of games~

MAGIC i.e. Money the Wasting;
D&D (Mostly 3.5 but I've no qualms with 2nd and I can stomach the bit of 4th we're playing now);
BANG!;
Zombies;
A MTG TC-RPG that I've been working on using 4th ed D20 (God, the SRD on 4th ed is FAIL! That game is so incomplete!);
Kill Dr. Lucky;
Bella Sara Online (WITH MY DAUGHTER!);
Chess;
and MAGIC;

 

[InvisibleMilk]

I'm starting a Pen and Paper group around my neighboor hood

 

[pantsoffdanceoff]

Our area is too cool for D&D, but I do play a mean Dark Eldar army. And then about 2 years ago I picked up an Empire army becuase quite frankly, once you master Dark Eldar... you're just a lean green raping machine.

 

[Corven]

I used to play a weird homebrew D&D'ish game, we used an old clue board as the map, I don't remember much about it but I do remember it was fun. *nostalgic sigh*

 

[Yog Sothoth]

... Signed. We table-toppers need to stick together, we're the real old school gamers!

I don't play WH, but I play LOTS of other stuff....

Magic: the Gathering still counts, right? And I've experimented with many RPGs like D&D, World of Darkness, GURPS, and Rifts... I'm involved in a large, home-brew fantasy campaign at the moment...

I liked a lot of the games that WizKids [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiz_Kids] made, like HeroClix and the pirates PockedModel game... Then Topps Trading Cards made a dick move and bought all their IPs only to shut them down....

The other company I really like right now is Fantasy Flight Games [www.fantasyflightgames.com/]. They tend to specialize in over-sized, almost over complicated board games with multiple expansions, like Arkham Horror [http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_minisite.asp?eidm=6&enmi=Arkham%20Horror] and Twilight Imperium [http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_minisite.asp?eidm=21&enmi=Twilight%20Imperium%203rd%20Edition]. I highly recommend both of these games if you can overcome their prices and learning curves....

 

[Lios]

I've recently gotten into D&D myself, and me and the family often play Munchkin (brilliant game).

Thing is, I don't have many places to go to or people to play these games with. We only have one game place near where I live, and even that is 40 miles away, and I can't even drive.

 

[Drake the Dragonheart]

Do a bit of D&D 3.5 and I also play the original World of Darkness. I occasionally play Munchkin. My group and I used the World of Darkness Hunter sheets and system to run a makeshift battletech/mechwarrior campaign. We also ran a mechwarrior campaign and a Gundam campaign using BESM. I also do Wizkids Battletech miniatures Mechwarrior: Age of Destruction game.
My friend has Risk 2210 A.D. that we sometimes play.
I still have my magic the gathering cards.
Haven't played checkers in a while, but have only met a few people I couldn't beat. Would love to learn backgammon. I stink at chess though.
Do games such as Rummikub, phase ten etc count?

 

[Iron Mal]

In regards to the thread title asking us to 'unite' I was going to quote LOTR with 'You have my sword' but...technically that wouldn't actually be applicable.

I used to play Warhammer 40K (and I still have my Space Marine force as a momento of the good old days) and have recently begun playing DnD (I usually play as a human Paladin).

Never let it be said that I never give anything a chance (or I shall be left with no choice but to smite ye).

 

[Deef]

Does Settlers of Catan count? I'm pretty badass at that game.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

I play AD&D, DBM, Hordee of the things, City Fight, Block Wars and Magic: The Gathering. But the new cards for Magic are crap.

 

[HillDragon]

Definitely. I get my ass handed to me in Knights of Catan though =(

 

[Yokai]

When I was a little younger I'd play Dungeons and Dragons all the time. However, I stopped playing when my friends' younger siblings insisted on joining the group and every session became a pandemonium of juvenile insults and furiously checking rulebooks. I've played a little Warhammer 40000 lately, because my cousin's gotten into it, and I really enjoy the ludicrously grim, dark, badass version of the future the game portrays. I don't have the money for an actual army yet, but I'm saving up for a decent-sized Tau force.
