I'll get the ball rolling,
For those who don't know me, my name is Jon and i'm a bit of a gaming addict. I play a wide variety of games and systems and I am always up for a game in any system. What do I collect and play do you ask? Well let me tell you!
Bolt Action:
Armies: Germany (Primary Army)
I have a large collection of Germans ready to do battle throughout the years of World War II! I can play any sized game from the small to the large. If given the chance i'll field a Panzer division and roll over the top of you!
Warhammer Fantasy (8th Edition):
Armies: Chaos Daemons (Primary Army) Warriors of Chaos (Budding New Army)
A gaming system I have really taken to. I have always had a collection of daemons which I treat as my prestige army. The army that gets all the treatment for paint and conversions. It means the army is put together slowly but look great when on the table! Warriors of Chaos is another force I am looking to create as a side project to my daemons.
Warhammer 40,000 (Current Edition)
Armies: Tyranids (Primary Army)
You want to fight Nids? I gots nids... You want to fight lots of Nids? I gots lots'a'Nids... You want to fight Nids of all shapes and sizes? I gots lots'a'Nids of every shape and size! An army I have collected for a considerable length of time. It isn't played quite as much as it used to be due to lack-lustre codex. However, they are still a fun army to play with. If you want a fight i'll bring the horde.
Star Wars Armada (Current Edition)
Fleet: Imperial (Primary Fleet)
Rebel scum... Imperial all the way. A fantastic gaming system I have really got behind. I thoroughly enjoy playing Armada and Im always up for a game of it. Its simple to play and easy to set up!
Flames Of War (Current Edition Mid/Late War)
Armies: Germany (Primary Mid-Late War) Commonwealth (Secondary Mid War)
Another system I have had for some time but have never got around to playing. Now with some more time and a diverse club I have managed to get a few more games in! If you ever want a clash or just learn the rules join me in a game as I learn the rules myself as well!

I'm Karl, I'm only doing this to check my display name posts the way I want, but the games I play are:
Bolt Action:
Armies: Finnish (Primary Army)
I have just begun to collect an army for this game and I'm still not 100% on the rules. However, I feel with Alans awesome campaign we'll all get some much needed battle practice before we embarrass ourselves and our club in tournaments.
Firestorm Armada:
Armies: Hawker Consortium, Kurak Alliance sub-race (Primary Army)
Although I do enjoy this game it takes so much time and seems to have fallen out of favour amongst our group. I'd still be up for the odd one off game from time to time though if anyone could be bothered.
Board Games:
There are any amount of board games at our club and if I'm not involved in those I'm usually free to try any of the games we have there. I generally enjoy playing Ticket to Ride, Talisman and Civilization. Although I will give any game a try to see if its fun, except Carcassonne, which is bloody shit.
Cheers Johnny for posting first so I could steal your layout format.

Looks like it's my turn!
My name is Will. I enjoy long walks on the beach and board games. 
I'm much more interested in fun fluffy games that ultra competitive cheese mongering - as long as everyone is having fun, I don't care who wins! I'm mostly up for trying most new systems at least once, and will happily demo any of my well known games to others who are interested.
Fantasy 8th Edition
Armies: Vampire Counts (Primary Army)I've really taken to 8th, it's a fabulous system and very fun to play - even if I do blow my own wizards up! I have a large force of undead that is slowly growing over time. Currently I probably sit at a comfortable 2000, but I'm always raising more zombies to add to the ranks! I may also be interested in starting Lizardmen (because who doesn't want dinosaurs riding dinosaurs), but we'll see if my Vamps give me the space to do that... Warhammer 40,000 (Current Edition)
Armies: Imperial Knights (Primary Army)Yes, I'm a Knight player. Yes people will likely shout 'cheese!' down my throat, but honestly, I just put them on the table because my freeblades are pretty. And I'm always up for any kinda game, provided everyone knows I'll be stompy stompy around the board with 4 titans and an assassin. Warhammer 30,000
Armies: Dark Mechanicum (Primary Army)Also adding to my Knights, I have a 1500pt force of Taghmata Mechanicum I use in both 40k and Horus Heresy. In bigger games these work alongside my freeblades, but mostly I use them as an alternative if people really don't want to face Knights. I am also fairly terrible with them, but they look pretty! Firestorm Armada (Current Edition)
Fleet: Pathogen (Primary Fleet)I've sculpted and cast my own models for the Pathogen fleet, so it'd be weird for me not to use them! Firestorm is a great game (and one I normally lose at), but it does take it's time, so if you want a game, hit me up before the club starts so I know what to bring and when! Dropzone Commander (Current Edition)
Armies: Shaltari TribesAh, my favourite sci fi miniatures game. Dropzone Commander is a 15mm sci fi tabletop game that has a heavy focus on capturing buildings and dropping your army in from orbit via dropships. It's got huge tactical depth, and doesn't require a ton of dice like 40k. Once you know what you're doing, a large 1500pt game can be finished in just over an hour, including setup time! There are currently 5 factions to choose from: The teleporting and few in number Shaltari, the infinite infantry and super heavy tank toting UCM, the Giger inspired Scourge, futuristic terminator style PHR, and finally, the ramshackle and rebellious Resistance!

Hi I'm Rob.
Games I play:
The Hobbit SBG
I have a whole range of armies for this and more seem to arrive all the time. If anyone wants to try this game out let me know and we can sort something out.
Bolt Action
Italians (they have fancy hats). Avanti Savoia!
Possibly starting US airborne sometime. Death from above!
Warhammer Fantasy
Empire. A very small and slowly advancing project.
40k
Imperial Guard (Astra Mili-whatsitcalled). What can I say, I like guardsmen. There is no problem that can't be overcome with application of enough guardsmen. I don't play this much now, I still haven't forgiven GW for killing Sly Marbo and all the penal legionnaires, RIP.

Hey,Keith
Flames of War: Late war German. who doesn't enjoy a king tiger in the face!?
Warhammer FB: Vampire Counts. My main/serious army.
Orcs&Goblins. My fun/often rubber army.
Skaven. a small shooty contingent though it may grow very slowly
Miscellaneous:Ive an early Imperial Roman army built up(with some Templar knights)which will be used in WFB most likely,I have Warhammer Ancient Battles but never played with it and the systems are almost identical.Could also be used in Saga or suchlike.
Started a regiment of English Line Infantry,Waterloo styley but these guys are unbuilt and undetermined as they'll ever hit the tabletop!
Heroquest and Mordheim should be on this list too I guess
