Table VS. Floor ... only one shall prevail

Do you generally play on a table or on the floor? Does one have merit over the other? I generally play on the floor due to the fact that the only table I have is a foldout card table. I have built on tables as well as a pool table which is nice. (comes with free pocket pop holders!) But overall I prefer the casual and comfortable atmosphere of a game on the floor. more room!

I've got 4 kids age 5 and under and a pug that chews on stuff. As a result I have a "no heroscape stuff on the floor" rule to prevent things from getting masticated, stepped on, kicked, smashed, eviscerated, worried, gnawed, crushed, lost, sent down the heater vent, or otherwise destroyed. I play with it on the table. The kids play with it on the guest room/office bed.

EDIT: Oops - I do play on the floor also but only after bedtime.

We use a low table for the map, armies & dice rolling but have the army cards on the floor. Dice rolls do not count unless they are flat and stay on the table.

My son and I play 90% of our games on the floor. I use tables when I play other adults though.

I'm old. I can play on the floor, but I have to wait until help arrives to get up again.

edit: I can buy a lot of tables for the cost of a trip to the back doctor.

I'm young, but I too prefer not to have a sore back.

Dragonslayer is surprisingly tart
Table. I've built a map in the fridge once but it turned out too cold to play (and Tundra wasn't released back then, so it wasn't fitting, sort of).

I agree, truth. It really is embarassing, though, to have the grandkids say, "Papa just took down Nelfheim...call 911!"

I'm young AND have a bad back (thanks to work :P) and sometimes playing on a table sucks too. All the leaning over to build the map...ugh...

Yes, nether...there are times when even on a table I sit in a chair and scoot to build maps. Thankfully, we have nice Spanish tile floors.
