You know you play too much Warhammer when the moment you wake up you are trying to make the perfect DeathStar.

... when you find yourself searching for accessories that are "more Dark Elven" to go on a night out.

... when your idea of a perfect way to celebrate getting a new job is to buy a box of those lovely new Corsair models. And then you show all your friends said models, who give them due attention.

... when you know that this is also your reward for a good dental checkup.

... your friend asks you if you want to join a fantasy RP. You agree if you can be an Elf who dresses in dark colours, takes a *cough* 'relaxed' approach to violence, poisons and sudden death, and has a lizard to ride. He says yes.

... when you wonder about Dark Elf decor. And then realise that you already have a lot of black, purple, and a skull by the bed.

... you eat off the floor because the dining able have been permanently converted into a gaming table.

... you refuse to play WoC. Not because you dislike the models/army/fluff/etc. But because you dont have a suitable costume.

... you called in sick because your too tired as a result of staying up all night building terrain.

You know you play too much Warhammer when...
... your mother-in-law is yelling to you and you only think "where's my Soulrender?"
... you conquered a quarter of the office, thinking this worth 100 VPs.
... you go in a pet shop, looking for an Hydra cub.
... you recognise the champion, the standard bearer and the musician in your working team.
... you give the goodnight kiss to your wife, your son, your daughter and your War Hydra.

Some of this real happened.

You defeated him in a fight by just standing there with your incredibly high SCR.
You are afraid of spiders but do not leave the room when you see one since they have lower unit strength.
Your walking pace is halved when there are people nearby.
If your boss (for some peculiar reason) carries a flag he is no longer the head of the company.
You call beauty parlors cauldron of blood and smirk for yourself.

You play too much warhammer when as you walk past a tree (or a big rock) you are dead certain that if you drybrushed it, it'd look more realistic.

... When you try gut barging your friends for "fun competition"
... When you stat all of your firends and have an arena of death tournament
... When you create a dance called "the warhammer" and use it at clubs (seriously, I'll tape it and show you guys sometime)


... When you join a warhammer forum to talk to other warhammer players because you aren't at the shop to talk to the warhammer players there :P

o_O No, thats not just too much warhammer. That's the point where you should consider taking all your minis and throwing them into a deep, deep lake. Preferably one with Piranhas in it. And every time you feel like going and buying another model from a GW shop, you burn the money instead. Only cure, honest ;)

I think a better one is:

...When you finally convince your girlfriend to try a game, and can't understand why she hates it.
-OR-
... When you finally convince your girlfriend to play, and she actually starts an army

Yeah... after 4 years I'm still working on that secondbit... Got her to try Space Hulk and Chaos in the Oldworld though.

Your girlfriend is stronger than you, she runs faster and drives pretty damn good (in contrast to you).
Then she defeated you in Warhammer.. your manhood is lost!

when you convince your wife or significant other to let you buy more minis on the premise that they are "D&D miniatures to help [their] D&D games get better"

(sadly, my D&D gamer wife didnt go for this, but in a few years, i might try using my "daughter's army" as an excuse)

When I first started dating my girlfriend four years ago, she said: "Well warhammer is nerdy, but at least it's not as bad as D&D. If you ever play that, you might be too nerdy for me."
She currently is a D&D fanatic... but still wont touch warhammer.

...When the word "piranha" makes you think Tau skimmers
...When you associate different animal names with tanks and monsters
...Think that you should lose some weight so that you would look more like an elf.
...Like only kinky, black-haired, pale skinned and thin women with preferably funny ears.
...When you start to think that a regular hammer is too weak compared to Khal Maraz
...When you laugh at jokes about Warhammer
...when you think everything as a hand weapon


Guess which ones I'm guilty of.
