Hullo again,

As promised, here’s an intro to my planned ‘Ork Warz’ project.

I really like the 6mm Skinnerz range from Vanguard miniatures and really love Gorkamorka, so why not a 6mm Gorkamorka project?

I don’t want to do 6mm Skirmish, so I’m expanding it to a larger scale conflict – imagine the world of Gorkamorka but rather than small groups in conflict it’s the townships, outposts and city slums united against each other.

I like the idea of collecting very themed forces – I can picture one force being led by a Mad Mek from a Mek fort out in the wastes – a stompa or three supported by big gunz and kanz. A raiding force of nomadic Speed Freakz would be all bikes, buggies and trukks. A defensive Ork town built arounfd a ruind Gargant made up of boyz. It’s going to be great!

I’m picturing this as ‘large skirmish’ – somewhere around 10 units a side (so what, 15-20P in Horizon Wars terms?) and a lot of the character will come from ‘themed’ the forces are.

Force one is on the way to me at the moment – it’ll be the least ‘themed’ – some boyz, some bikerz, some trucks and some nobz. Not sure that I’ll be able to get going on them until August, so as has become tradition – here’s a pintrest board where I’m gathering ideas:
