Ogre team on a budget...

Gnoblar Fighters arm themselves with an assortment of broken bottles, swords, spear tips, false legs, fangweasels, pointy sticks and rusty daggers - basically anything they can lay their grubbly little hands on.

Perfect Blood Bowl fans!!!

There's some good stuff in the OK, but, imo, some real crap as well.

Is it just me, or do GW really seem to veer between really good and really bad nowadas - no "average" stuff.

hmmmm, the bulls look a bit bulky to use for ogres, once they get knocked down they'll be a pain to adjust, they'll deff take up more than one square on the field.... Think I'll stick to and edition Ogres and Snotling Stars

well, I reckon it could be worth a go...

if anyone wants to split a regiment box with me, let me know... you get 7 Ogres and 12 Gnoblars for 25 quid....

which can't be bad...

then again, last time I did this Del bought some spare plastic Skaven bits from me and look what happened as a result...

I'm afraid that Lego Ogres seem to be the cheapest option...

Nah..you and me went halves..and Del commandeered the bits. What ever did you do with your half anyway?

put them together, painted one (and a RO), got bored and changed teams...

I still have them assembled and one day will get round to painting the rest up... they are no where need as good as Del's because I wasn't using GS back then, but they are still OK...

pic of RO is here (I opted not to attach the pic for obvious size reasons

):

let me know if you or Del want some platic Gnoblars Woody...

found this pic on portent which seems to suggest the scale is a damn site better than the official models (not tricky I grant you!)

I'll sell you some spares if you like?

At least you only have to convert a few Ogres.. you have the Gobs already!

Totally off topic ... Ithilkir ... my son want's to know what happened to the cool moving ratman ...

He says your current avatar is "too scary"

Im sorely tempted to get those ogres, i mean they are a snip compared to the official team. im not going to pay£90 odd quid for official ogres so this may be the solution for me once i get some money!

Maybe we can come to an arrangement Rob...
