Safe... for now

While I am ditching games, there are some games I am going to keep around despite the lack of play on their part.  At the very least there should be more swap meets later down the road... What I don't have is a good group that moves between games.  Really missing the MNI in that regards, as during the golden period it had a great schedule between mini gaming and board gaming.  Knowing I have a group like that would help ease some of the issues here, but CA gamers seem to be more single game focused. I haven't played a board game since moving to CA.  Thankfully I honestly miss playing board games and have been invited to play with a more established board game group(if only I could stop being busy randomly Monday evenings).  These were also dramatically thinned down so I can't think of a board game I own now that I wouldn't want to play.  Hopefully I will get a game in soon... Turret-Wing is another game I haven't played since moving here.  I tried scoopi

So one of my local stores,  Game Kastle , is having a swap meet.  As I'm on my fourth month in CA I've had plenty of time to see what I actually play.  Moving has helped focus this as well, I had far too many games that I just wasn't playing even if I enjoyed them and space is at far more of a premium here. What I'm thinking of selling: 40k is easily on the table.  I haven't really played this game in years, nor do I think I would enjoy it if I did.  On top of that it's incredibly expensive.  GW is the sick man of Europe and it seems best to dump this while I can.  I'm somewhat curious what my Chaos Dwarves models would bring me too. Why should I keep it? I really do love how Tau look and I think I would enjoy painting them.  Sadly HG scratches this same itch. Malifaux is on the table as well.  I enjoyed playing it in Dallas, but that was largely due to the community that played it there.  The 2nd edition, while excellent, took far too long
