Reinvigorated
Posted: 12 Mar 2016, 22:35
Thought I'd just share a nice revelation from today.
Our gaming table has been buried under a pile of laundry and junk since Age of Sigmar. Hubby and I were just so disillusioned since AoS's release that our passion for our hobby got buried under something between disappointment and resentment. A decade or more of collecting, painting and gaming shut in a disused room.
In the spirit of 'Spring Cleaning' (ugh), I blitzed the gaming room and unearthed the table. An impromptu "shall we have a game at the weekend?" followed, so today we had our first 8th ed battle since AoS on release day. And the stupidly obvious thing we realised is: It's still fun. Of course it is, the rulebooks didn't vaporise when AoS came out. We're having a rematch tomorrow.
So the enthusiasm for the hobby is back. I'm guessing a good lot of the users that have vacated the forum and stopped playing have done so for similar reasons we did. I'm hoping my post may inspire a few others to do the same.
