Hey guys, I'm on.
Well, when Paul asked me to bring over my models to his place so that the battles can be recreated in much realism as possible. Better than pieces of card cutouts with the unit names and details on them. I said yeh. But pulling them out of storage I realised that transporting them might pose a problem. So I've bought one of those GW Citadel hard cases and packed my infantry troops into that. But having over 120 knights wouldn't fit. So I looked around and found out from asking that a place in the States sells prefabricated foam cutouts to any GW army. There is an outlet here in Adelaide just around the corner from me. Hobby Matrix in Fairview Park. I'm checking it out this Saturday. Foam trays range from $10 to $25 and seem like a good investment for my models' protection. I've placed an order and it will take a couple of weeks. Check out the Battle Foam site at - us.battlefoam.com
I'm even going to start painting again.
Cheers
And let the battles begin!

The Orcs of the Crimson Wastes
Shazdrakk Khan snarled at the war council as he dashed his
clawed hand across the map scratched into the dirt of the yurt’s floor. Grunjir Khan, the ultimate ruler of the Crimson Wastes watched him impassively. “Yaaah!", Shazdrakk continued. "This talk of dwarves and elves and men and their strength, is just gas passing
from the back end of a boar! The Orcs are the great strength in this land! We
have the strength, the cunning and the tools of war! When I hear the whining of
the weak ones in our ranks, I hear only the crunch of their bones, the sound of
their flesh passing my lips as they feed my belly and my strength. Their flesh shall
feed us as we go to war. And as we march there shall be blood and flames and the
screams of our enemies. And we shall have their lands for our own!"
Much later, an illustrious sage of an as yet unknown empire
would write “......and the orcish hordes poured from the Crimson Wastes to lay waste
to the kingdoms around them. All trembled with fear as the larger and smaller
goblinoid kin marched to war, with beaten iron weapons, armour, and brands of fire held
high. Their number innumerable, the orcs swallowed settlement after settlement
with violence in their hearts. A time of devastation had come to all……."
