It's amazing how different the figures look when they are 'properly' based, almost makes me want to go back and repaint mine... maybe after I've finished painting my High Elves. And Orcs and Goblins. And Chaos Dwarves. And Vampire Counts. And Empire... oh lordy, what have I done...?? D:
As for that game, I'm not as mobile now since the new addition to our family ( I have a 6 week old son!) but there is a new discount stockist in Parra called the games cube that has tables etc and warhammer till late on Friday nights, I've been wanting to try them out. If you're around I have a fully painted 4th ed. High elves army, we could have a game, take some pics etc, share them here!
Alternatively I have a couple of mates in the area who enjoy the odd game of heroquest, we could use your ( or my) set for a display game! My set isn't fully painted yet though.
