WFB: Just the one. About 3500 points of Vampire Counts. I've owned others but they fell by the wayside. Vampires are still the only thing I'm excited enough by to advance order stuff for or to go to the trouble of paying twice as much for my models so I can convert them just so or use OOP models.

40K: Chaos Space Marines - about 3500 points, probably, but lots of it tied up in units I'm beginning to find rather inferior to. I also have Orks - 1350 points and counting (I'm building a Battlewagon to hit 1500 at this very moment), and I'm thinking about Daemons as a possible addition to the Chaos masses - if I can be bothered to keep them at all.

After that it's all Specialist Games (Eschers for Necromunda, Possessed for Mordheim, a clapped-out Istvaanian Radical for Inquisitor and I keep meaning to start up Orks in BFG and Epic).
 
Just the one army for me! I only really began this year though. I think I have roughly 3000/3500pts

In the term I do want to start a 40K army!
 
How many armies? Well I've had a hugeclearout over the last two years so I'm down to:

WHFB:

1. VC - About 10k.
2. DE - About 6k.

40k:

Space Marines - About 5k.

WMA:

Early Imperial Romans - 2.5k.

WAB:

Early Imperial Romans - 3k

Epic40k:

Imperial Guard - Easily around 15k.

Beyond that I've got loads of various bits and pieces for allsorts of skirmish games.
 
5+:

40K:
Space Marines, Imperial Guard

WHFB:
High Elves, Empire, Dwarfs, Vampire Counts

random: I also have a couple dozen Chaos warriors and a chariot, as well as a bunch of night goblins..but I don't count those.
 
Currently have two armies:

Wood Elves (approximately 3k)
Vampire Counts (approximately 4k)

Although have only been playing for a couple of years now, and already have a few others I've been looking at....

.... once I get everything painted of course! (about 1/2 of the VC left!)
 
3 atm

2k Dwarf
2k Skaven
2k+ VC

I have some loose models from other armies as well but nothing worth mentioning.

I have some problems focusing on painting one army so all of them have some units painted.
 
WFB:
VC
TK
Daemons enough to do 3k of each god
Mortals enough to do 3k of each god
Beasts
LM

40K
IG x 6
SM x 2
DH

Many over 10k some 20k+ one 30k+

See what I don't get about posts like this, and I don't mean to target BigDig or say he is lieing, is that if you really do have that much stuff then it would take up so much space.

I've got around 18k Warhammer total and maybe 4k 40k and it doesn't fit in 10GW sized model cases (even nearly).

Just the 180k+ you say you have of 40k would take easily more than 100 model cases, and anyone is going to take a claim like that with a fairly large pinch of salt.

I know someone who spent £5000 on the Apoc launch day, and just the 20k points of Imperial Guard he has fills a full luggage trolleys worth of cases.
 
wfb: i have vc and empire
40k: i have space marines and eldar
mordheim: mercenaries, witch hunters and undead

i am building deamon hunters and nids as well and thinking about orks. i just love those new commandos!
 
WFB: 12000points of Dwarves, 5000points Vampire, 1000points Empire, 1000points Ogre Kingdoms

40K: 4000points Spacewolves, 2000points Sapvewolves 13th, 1500points of Dark Angels, 3000points Silverskulls (marines), 1000points Daemonhunters

Yes it takes a massive amount of room, infact it will be a full room in my house (I am currently renting a storage unit for it).
I stopped using GW cases long ago.

the 180k thing is a bit off. Close as I can figure it, all told (between 40k and WFB) its in the ball park of: 140kish
 
My first and main army is Vampire Counts. I picked up wood elves partially because I really like them, and partially because my gf complained that all I didn't have enough elves (for dnd). I suppose I technically have just under 4-500 points of Raven Guard for 40k, and it is the army I'm working on right now, but I'm considering putting those on hold or dropping them all together to work on either lion heavy High Elves or Dark Elves painted like drow.
But to answer you're question 2.5
 
tau (1.5 k and stop - on its way to me by post now)

skaven (to 2k, may continue later when new AB is out, will be ordered sometime in the near future)

brets (big army, a continuing into future after 2009-10 lay off from buying {gaming time for two straight years} being traded for in the near future - dreading painting them)

side projects (don't count for armies, will be continued indefinatly - vamp's being an exception):

self sculpted cathayan army using un-offical warseer codex (friendly games, first sculpting project)

vampire counts (painting army, i see something i like, if i have money i buy and paint to display, if not, don't worry)
 
roughly, 10,000 pts of Black Templars, 7,000 of Chaos Marines (combined from Emperor's Children and renegades), 3,500 of Tyranids, 2,000 of Witchhunters, 1,500 of Eldar, 3,000 of Traitor Guard, 2,000 of fantasy Chaos, and 4,500 of Vampire Counts.
 
Lesse...

Empire #1 (Sold) Painted
VC #1 Painted (3,000 pts +) Undead Empire
Orcs (Sold) Painted
Empire #2 Painted (2,500 pts painted, another 2,500 unpainted)
VC #2 Painted (3,000 pts+) Undead Chaos
Dwarfs Painted, but stripped and being repainted (3,000 pts)
Chaos Dwarfs Current Project. Originals and Conversions.
Brets Painted (3,000+) 1,000+ unpainted.
Lizzards 100 Saurus painted, rest not.
TK unpainted
Chaos Mortals Painted (3,000+)
DoW/Ogre Kings (more a smattering so I have DoW options) (in boxes)

So unique armies (if you count both VC as one) and not counting armies I sold (or the DoW/Ogres).... 8. I might do DE once the craze has passed... as I've been meaning to do them for a while. Though VC, Empire, and Chaos Dwarfs have my heart.

Edit: I still have enough Night Gobbos and Orcs to do another Orc army. *Sigh*

I need to sell/trade some of this stuff.
