Where are we?

[Martin Smith]

...retired, so whenever, wherever for me.

[Leslie BT]

Retired so always from home between jobs!

[Big Mike]

Retired etc....

[Leman (Andy)]

I wonder if there is anyone under 30 on this site. I was wargaming (i.e. not playing with model faeries and robots) at 13. Does that still happen?

[Wardy64]

Ben who is 20 at Uni and working part time at the Motor Museum.

D&B

[Leman (Andy)]

Huzzah! Someone to carry the torch.

[Bankinista]

Just tell him to wait. The demographics of gamers suggests that in (regrettably) just a few years, "youngsters" will each be able to each inherit the armies of multiple gamers. Martin may know more exactly but I suspect that wargames as a hobby are growing in breadth (same players, more periods) rather than depth, (same periods, more players.)

[Wardy64]

He has already inherited my hoard.

D&B

[Moggy]

I admit to having a Christmas Robot HOTT army!

Derek

[Sean Clark]

The toys keep us all young at heart! I must get myself a HotT army Derek. I'm sure I've got goblins somewhere.

Your nephew runs a very successful and well attended school wargames club. A fair bit of warhammer, Star Wars etc but also WW2 planes and boats and they have even played skirmish 'dark ages'

[Leman (Andy)]

Indeed he does, although the dreaded faeries and robots still feature. Hopefully they will mature into those who like a lot more human history in the mix. I have to put my hand up and admit to some of Leonardo's theoretical (thus fantasy) machines making the occasional appearance in my Italian Wars games.
