As the title says, does anyone have any suggestions for a collevtive noun for a group of Wiffers?

Some great ones so far!  :thumbsup:

Going with the idea that 'whif' can mean emitting or picking up a smell, how about 'a stench of whiffers'?  ;D

from Mrs Steel Penguin ( my lovely wargaming wife) a conundrum of whiffers

An Insanity?
A Pandemonium?
An Alternative?
A Question?


Of course, the opposition  are much easier to create a collective noun for -
An Argument of JMN.
There are no good kits, bad kits or grail kits, just kitbash fodder.

A Disapproval of JMNs?
