My story is similar.   Growing up I was mainly into GW games.   All of them, not just one, so that’s perhaps a little more variety than it might appear.   I also had a few different RPGs, and although I did play some DnD it wasn’t my first RPG and I soon found other games (and gamers) I preferred.

I dropped out and then back into the hobby and gradually branched out into exploring other games and periods – including historicals.

More recently I actively started looking for alternatives to GW and although I’m now happier with them and more interested in their games and settings again, I still appreciate a lot of other games and ranges.

Some things I buy because I think they’re so good they deserve support.   Some I buy in the (often vain) hope that because they’re more self-contained they’ll get more use than larger collections for bigger games.   Some I get because I’m a collector and interested in having a variety of things to dip in to.
