Hmm, this is a long list And this is only the stuff I got. Although not all are actual 'wargames' many of these fall under this category in one way or another. They all are games in one way or another.

Also note that I used all the "English" names for the different games although most games I have are the "Dutch" versions but for easy reference for the members here I thought it would be best to use the English names.

Games Workshop
Warhammer Fantasy: Empire, High Elves, Orcs and Goblins, Dogs of War, Ogre Kingdoms, Lizardmen
Warhammer 40k: Eldar
LotR: Gondor, Rohan, High ElvesIsenguard, Mordor (stuff from other realms but not really play those)
Battle of the Five Armies: Good/Evil
GorkaMorka: Gorkers & Morkers
Warhammer RPG (1st Ed)
Warmaster (don't have any armies but do have the core rulebook. Looks very interesting)

Other Miniature Games
Hordes: Circle
Krash

Cardgames
Magic the Gathering (till Tempest, still play from time to time)

Boardgames
Battlemasters
Space Crusade
Risk
History of the World
Axis and Allies: Europe
Sid Meiers Civilization, the Boardgame
Settlers of Catan + the Seafarers + Cities and Knights
Merchants of Amstersdam
Hotels
Shark
Amazing Labyrinth
Star Trek: The Next Generation (Klingon Challenge)
Party & Co (fun to play when drunk)
Munchkin (Plus Munchkin 2 & 3) (Very fun to play when drunk)
View on the Century game
Odysseus
Nero
Big City
Warcraft: the Boardgame
Dungeons & Dragons: the Boargame
Stephansons Rocket
Chess
Union Pacific
Logistico
Aloha
Architecton
Aladdin's Dragons
Kontor
Hoity Toity
Roborally

Games I don't really play (anymore) but have none the less
Haunted House
Cheesewiz
Shut the Box
Rummikub
Jurassic Park
The Omega Virus (still need to fix the electronic thingy)
Pokemon (inherited this from my brother)
Dopedeal without Borders
Tutanchamons Revenge
Tangrams
Battleship

As for more Wargames, I found a shop here in Rotterdam that sells  AT-43, Confrontation and Warmachine/Hordes so they have quite a big range. Also they sell GW stuff at a discount I've heard (but are not really sure about that)

I'm not really a fan of this AT-43. For €80 you get a box with 'only' 17 miniatures in it, a shortend version of the rules (like the ones in the boxes GW makes) and a few bits of scenery. Although the minis are painted they are not too good. Only a basic layer and then an ink over it. Which is a real shame considering how much money it costs. The scenery package is quite interesting though.

I also found out that this Confrontation starter is of really good value. For €50 you get 9 models (although all metal) it's a freaking heavy book and it looks like they got the complete rules in that set. But I'll have to ask there or maybe you know Hunter.

Hehe, it's one of my addictions. Playing boardgames and buying them to try them out... And I must say that some of these games are darn good and fun to play. Here are some games I currently play relatively a lot (though this is of course subject to my mood, time of the year, temprature of the sea and humidity of the air )

-Big City: I wrote a review on this game that can also be found in this section. The players have to build a city together and score as much 'points' as possible (eg, realise the largest profits) Player with most points wins. It looks fun as the buildings you make are quite nice and when the city is finished it just looks cool

-Hoity Toity: I bought this game as an impulse, it was only €7,50. But it's sooo much fun. In this game you are an English lord, and what do English lords do? They collect art! So you'll have to buy, steal and bluff your way through the board and get the biggest, baddest and coolest collection in the game to impress the other 'lords' as much as possible. Sure to give you a good laugh time to time and it's soo easy even your grandpa can play it.

-Roborally: This game is just great. Race your robot around a very dangerous factory floor while pushing your opponents in bottomless pits, ZAP them with your lasers and meanwhile try to complete the course as fast as possible. Guaranteed succes with many a player.
