In the world of wargaming what  have you happily said goodbye to?

For myself
1. cardboard bases
2. Enamel paints
3. Average dice
4. Felt cloths
5.SAE for product list
6. Shooting templates
7. Contoured hills
8. Pins for spears
9. China graph pencils
10. Little coloured pebbles.
11. Vacuum formed scenery
12. Standing orders

None of the above annoy me but they are nice to have been left behind.
Your ones?
