My thoughts exactly, Primarch, especially if there's a few good lauchs along the way. My most memorable games were both Warhammer FB - in one my long-suffering chaos army AND the opposing Dark Eldar troops all fled away after a huge melee in the middle of the table - two entire armies running away from each other in opposite directions - that was grand! In another, I was plasteredby the Skaven, and when I was done to my last couple of surviving Plaguebearers, they somehow managed to kill the Skaven general! I lost terribly, but my opponents good-natured complaints about the death of his favourite rat were terrific. Campsie, I'd guess what's worst are his inane comments on wishing he'd had the Planet Killer, the preaching etc. I mean that's not fun gaming, that's just the 'ooh my goodness my future happiness depends on blasting everyone whatever it takes' attitude, which is plain BORING and offputting. I try to win my games, but losing around 85% of them doesn't mean I have to get an army of greater daemons either. Anyway, I'd still manage to lose. I guess I'd manage to lose with an army designed by all the best wargamers put together, playing against half my own points worth of the worst units generaled (or admiraled) by a 6-year old who learnt to play by reading WD battle reports. People who lose against me go and hide in shame for months on end. Anyways, don't worry about BFG Campsie, it's a fun game, in spite of horrors like that character. You get them in every game, I'm afraid, so the best thing is - avoid them.
