Marauders and Warriors both seem to be on 25mm bases, annoyingly. And I need to find a 50mm square for Archaon too. <br /><br />I did almost paint up 40 black orcs for Woffboot VI, until I saw how much their points cost was. I think I'll finish one army before scraping together another, and there's nothing that kills my painting mood faster than 40 identical models, conversions aside!<br /><br />I'll be over in the UK in November for rehearsals, I could bring them then.

Perhaps just bring them next time you visit UK? Gives us an excuse for a pint.

I'd hate to see the vast edifice of my gaming hobby coming crashing down around my ears. <br /><br />I have occasionally wondered about selling Heroquest on - I've got the original and all the expansions. But it's in terrible nick, many missing bits and pieces. And it's also an emotional keystone (see above).

Heaps of excellent models but in crap numbers and with useless bases. I gave it away years ago, that's where the wolves are from too. <br /><br />You're very welcome to that lot, I shall sling them over in the post at some point. Just remind me of your address. <br /><br />I'd be embarrassed to field that lot as an army these days.
