No?

That's right, no-one knows, because no-one has risked it; or if they have, they haven't come back to tell the tale. Don't risk it.
Since I’m spending next week swabbing people up I should probably not tempt fate!
I’ll be ordering something tonight, I just haven’t decided what.
It’s probaly going to be mid 18th century....

Purps you need to realise your potential and become a real wargamer (BARW). I think a minimum spend of about 2 grand is required, so pick about 3 packs from Foundry and you're sorted.

I don't want to deliberately lower the mood, but over the last five years a few wargaming aquaintances have snuffed it. A good friend (who is a bit OCD) has spent money to hire vans and travel hundreds of miles to stop their collections being skipped by the council. Luckily he has a large home which is now full of vast collections of wargames paraphenalia which have a retail value of fuck all.
Let's break the chain - write Purps into your wills right now ! He will outlive the lot of us and is obviously in desperate need of a proper leadpile.

Well when I go, my landlord will likely skip the lot. Given that my brother has just had a diagnosis of inoperable stomach cancer, and he is my last surviving family.

Everyone else I could leave it too is my age or older!
