So I posted a "Got any Epic?" thread on another forum a while ago (April, I think) and never got any response until last week. ?Some guy PM'ed me asking if I needed any Epic Orks, and we set up a trade. ?I sent him twenty various 28mm figs, and here's what I got in return:
90+ Infantry stands A broad spread of all your classic types - Warbosses, Boyz, Nobz, Heavies, Grots, Weirdboyz, Stormboyz, Kommandoes and so on.
3 Pulsa Rokkets
4 autocannons I guess. ?Not really sure what these are called. ?Big Gunz, maybe. Not Hopsplats, though -- they don't have the big square shield on the front.
10+ Bikeboy stands
9 Boarboy stands
2 Scorchas
5 Warbuggies
5 Dreadnoughts
3 Squiggoths The old metal kind that look like giant boars with towers on top.
80+ Battlewagons These are both Space Marine era and Epic era plastics. ?Most are in great condition and just need to be repainted.
17 Plastic Stompas A mixed bag of the E40K boxed set type and the Stompas boxed set type
3 GibletGrindas
3 Skullhammas
12+ metal Mekboy wagons Looks like one and a half Wierdboy towers (one tower missing), two Dragstas, one BubbleChucka, three Rokkit Speedstas, two LiftaDroppas, and three Kustom Cannon speedstas.
So... just like that, my Ork strength has about doubled. ?Holy cow. ?I feel almost guilty for the lopsidedness of the trade, except the guy told my upfront that he didn't know what they were worth and didn't care, as a friend had just dumped them on him and he wanted to be rid of them.
Ooh-rah. ?Now my painting queue has just gotten about fifty percent longer... but I'm not complaining!
