primarch111 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I play with a group of about 10 people. We actually starting renting a 2 bedroom apartment because we were all running out of room for our games. With each one of us haveing at least 2 armies (I have 8 another guy has 6) we needed extra space to store our armies, paint and play games. We always keep one 4'x8' table up in the living room at all times but also have 2 other 4'x8' and 2-4'x6' tables that can be set up very quickly if need be.While most of us can only paint to minimun standard "myself included" we have one guy in the group "Cowdy" who can do it all, he has even sculpted minis from scratch useing only green stuff(I'll try to get pics) all scenery you see he built from scratch. http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/MVC-065F.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/MVC-054S.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/MVC-053S.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/MVC-051S.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/MVC-050S.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/MVC-008S.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/DSC00028.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/DSC00027.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/primarch111/DSC00026.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91193-is-this-overboard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scar Weaver Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 First, sweet table. I'd like take a few rounds on that. Second, you need to buy more stuff!! Living space is a luxury and food and sleep or for the weak. In fact, you should turn your whole apartment into a gaming zone. Pile all of your possessions that you haven't sold for more figs in the middle of the floor and make it up like a hive city!! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91193-is-this-overboard/#findComment-1048410 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orkdung Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Not overboard at all. Some friends and I were thinking of purchasing a condo downtown for parties and gaming. I think you'll see a lot more of this in years to come, with the proliferation of gaming, and with more and more gamers coming on-line into the workforce and making good scratch.

Brother Lysander Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I wouldn't wish it upon anyone, but if someone broke into that place they would be extremely confused :o . Cool set-up you have, I'm quite stunned that you are all renting a place just for your hobby, but after a moments reflection it is a great idea.

Aarhus Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Yep, I have two buddies who're in their 30's, married, both couples are career types with sick amounts of disposable income. Their bits alone, you could fill more than a couple kiddie pools and go swimming. Cheers, Lawrence.

no-use4a-name Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 The gaming club that I belong to have incorporated themselves as a non-profit company. This is to protect us against liabilty. In other words, insurance. We also rent space for the same purposes as you guys. If you need any advice, feel free to contact me or any other officer. The link to the club is in my sig.---HQ the Club, we're out of New York. Good luck on this endevour.

ursidae Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 You know this post got me thinking about getting my own place to game and paint... But I doubt I would ever leave it. -_- When you have members join the club do you all split the rent or do you have a membership fee?

primarch111 Posted July 10, 2006 Author Share Posted July 10, 2006 Six of us pay rent and we are the only ones who have keys and access to the place 24/7, we have other friends and local gamers who come over to play but they can only come over when one of the rent payers is there. Only rent payers are allowed to store their armies and other supplies there however if a rent payer is there all are welcomed to game, paint, construst models or just hang out. No membership fees, the rent is divided equally so the more the merrier.

Light of the Emperor Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 SWEET! Game rooms rock...they add a nice, laidback atmosphere to wargaming. That's a neat idea you have there with a dedicated place for wargaming. Thumbs up. Here's mine, but I wish I had that much warhammer goodness lying around! First part with BL and WD galore: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y119/Wicked_Cold/100_2377.jpg Middle (thank you IKEA): http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y119/Wicked_Cold/100_2364.jpg Second part (still on going): http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y119/Wicked_Cold/100_2372.jpg Cheers!

The Angelus Sanctus Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I see Lord R got the same idea about the Ikea displays as i did.. In fact i have a catelogue next to me and its around 163cm in height. Hmm, one day ill have some of those to show case my army, one day, plus i dont think my room atm could really handle a display case like that (and im still working on TRYING to finish at least ONE army).
