pkdan mentioned a small 40K campaign coming up soon. I haven't collected any GW stuff for almost 15 years, but I have tons of forces for other games. Easy, I thought, I'll just pull out something that looks appropriate and use them as proxies for something interesting. Great idea. Turns out I have tons and tons of modern/near future figs and no groups bigger than 30 figures or so. Got a look at a copy of the latest edition of the 40K rulebook and it looks like at best, I have half as many figures as I'll need for the force I was looking to run. And that's to run 500 friggin' points worth. Grr. I sent something off to a list that may net me a trade for more of what I'm looking for, but I'm really doing my damnedest not to have to actually spend any more money on this hobby. Lord knows I've already spent enough.
