Does anyone enjoy gaming with Warhammer 40k here?

Anyone here enjoy a game of Warhammer?

I've never personally played but one of my best friends does. He even has a 3d printer that he uses to print off some of the models for him and his friends. I'd get lost too easily playing it and I already have a money sink game in MTG

[Asker]

Totally understandable on the MTG front. 40k is incredibly difficult to get into with most armies, but the game, social aspect, and painting are sublime.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

The painting scares me. Such tiny little parts lmao

[Asker]

Honestly used to scare me too but it's so cathartic now hahaha

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Yeah? I don't even do well coloring in my art work, painting is a whole other beast for me to butcher lmao

[Asker]

It's definitely a skill you continuously develop, but it's so great if you keep at it :)

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

That's awesome to have a hobby you really enjoy. For me, it's board and video games. I collect and play both

[Asker]

Also great hobbies to have! I find the social interaction from board games vastly superior to video games, and definitely more my speed.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Favorite board game?

[Asker]

The card game Coup is a blast, and I have always been big on Trouble. Stratego was my go to for a long time as well

[Asker]

What about you?

[Asker]

Oh also Betrayal at House on the Hill

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Love Coup and Betrayal. My favorite is an old one called Nightmare. It plays with a vhs tape (now on YouTube) and gives you an hour to beat it. Completely chaotic fun

[Asker]

Does Nightmare require a set to play?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Yeah, and it's kind of rare. You can buy it on eBay, I believe. It goes between 70-200 dollars.

Basically the premise of the game is you have 60 minutes to collect 6 keys with multiple ways to do just that. Unfortunately the game play stops when the Gatekeeper comes on screen to talk and makes you play mini games. You can also be banished to the black hole where you miss all your turns until you get released. If you manage to collect all your keys, you still have to make it to the middle of the board and draw from a pile of cards that everyone prefills before the game starts. If you pull your own nightmare, you die and are out of the game.

[Asker]

That DOES sound chaotic! Pity it's harder to find

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

And it plays up to 6 players. Turns go QUICK by the time you roll, move and start to read your card, it's your turn again if everyone is playing quickly

[Asker]

Sounds like a great one for parties or game night!

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Definitely is!

I also really like another one called Red Dragon Inn which is much easier to find and has a ton of expansions for more characters.

[Asker]

I'll need to check it out! Been wanting to play more board games lately

[Anonymous]

Nope. Adults don't play kiddy games.

[Asker]

Thank you for your contribution.
