Well people are entitled to their opinions and like most opinions they
are mis-informed.

What I do know is that I am a RPG fan and a Wargaming fan. Neither of
which
give me any desire to worship anything or anyone. It's a game. If it
paid my
mortgage for me then I might expect some hidden catch but it doesn't.

But on the nostalgia thing I only got into wargaming because of two
events.
1st I thought Warhammer (2nd ed) was another RPG to try. (imagine my
confused looks at the box contents :)
2nd I wanted a greek soldier to represent my fighter for D&D only to
have an argument with the store owner
who refused to sell them individually. Apparently you don't buy wargame
figures separately :)

Oh and for the record I will be 29 for the next 56 days, after that my
age may vary ;)
