If wargaming was dead, there wouldn't be commercial wargames. I'd say that thanks to the Internet, computer wargaming is in better condition than ever.

Sadly, most humans are boring & only want to zone out watching the boob-tube every day instead. Poor, poor miserable souls. Therefore it is our duty to spread the word!

More like large concentrations of wargamers are playing the Games Workshop crap instead of historical wargames.

Why? They still play wargames. They just gave bad taste when it comes to the setting that they recreate.
