Heh should be a good old laugh, not to mention seeing people in the flesh/hearing there voice ect.

And Oi! I didn't say I was sharing my Jager... and if I do not for anyone who drinks Red Bull heh

Quite right Chico! You are probably like me and only drink Jager neat from the bottle!

Having never attended one of these events (and until discovering the oldhammer forum i didnt even know it existed!) can anyone tell me if it is a cash only event or is plastic accepted?

Many, many stalls have card machines but I couldn't say all of them do. Certainly every on I have bought stuff from did.

Thanks for the quick reply. I think I should bring a little cash then just to be on the safe side, but otherwise I can just use plastic as need be.

Had an excllent time on my first trip to salute made even better by meeting with some of the oldhammer group. Its always nice to be able to talk hobby with people who are actually interested in the same thing and thanks again to Orlygg for driving me down as well.

For me event itself was not just about meeting oldhammer peeps for the first time, but also seeing the new foundry orcs (though Kev Adams mentioned that he sculpted them 14 years ago!) and frankly i could have bought the lot! i resisted going mad and ive put a couple of them up below so you can see how superb the quality of the miniatures are. I probably should have added some citadel minis for scale, though the warboss is always going to be big against other miniatures.

There was a mailing list email on the back of the orc blisters which is "WarmongerMiniatures@hotmail.com" and also mentions that over the next couple of years that there will be hundreds of Orcs, Ogres, Trolls and snotlings *cough* i mean orclings being released.



Orlygg mentioned on his blog about the ex citadel barbarians being available to buy at salute and as ive actually managed to unseal these blisters, here are a few close ups of the contents of each blister.



Probably should mention in blister WA003 there are two blandford warriors which are the bottom row left and bottom right.
