Default Favorite table top game

Well talking about board game made me think of table top games. this doesn't include board games.

I mean magic, d&d , warhammer, etc,
I myself play magic, D&D, rifts, lord of the ring miniture, and serveral self-invented games.

what you guys play?

I used to play Avalon Hill's Advanced Squad Leader but then my regular opponent got a job in the British Embassy in South Africa so now I have to rely on my trusty PC for a challenge (so difficult to find an opponent or the time now for ASL).

Well, my favorites are, in order:
  1. Dungeons and Dragons (I love designing a dungeon or campaign then DM'ing it for a group, although I haven't done so in about 5 years )
  2. BATTLETECH (not this new click stuff, but old school! My forces stand 2 Regiments strong! Okay, maybe not so strong... Truth be told they are in serious need of refit and repair, again it's been about 5 years since I done any serious play )
  3. Warhammer 40k (Running a Deamonhunter Army 2000pts and building a 3000pt White Scars force *or Ravenwing still undecided)

I was expecting this thread to be about either the old 70's and 80's table-top arcade machines (I loved Warlords and Pong), or pinball. I've never been a D&D and Warhammer guy, that stuff just never appealed to me. I had loads of mates who loved Warhammer and used to do live-action roleplay, but again that never appealed to me either. Sorry!

I DM Star Wars and while I do not play Warhammer, I do collect the miniatures and paint them.

Hi Blackfrost, and welcome to the chronicles network.

As for table top - AD&D with full dungeon plans and figures was always great.

Only managed to get the old Warhammer mass battle played a couple of times, but good fun. And BattleTech - yes, played that a bit as well - especially liked designing my own mechs.

I play magic the gathering a lot with friends and started to play tournaments a few months ago. So far I've been to 3 tournaments.
1st=disaster 13th out of 14
2nd=pretty good 25th out of 114
3rd=also pretty good 5th out of 34

I also used to play DnD but it eats my time and I still have to go to school and lan-parties and karate and risk evenings and movie evenings, parties,...

An evening of Karate??

I presume you mean classes and not that you just get together and knock lumps out of each other
