The Newsroom….

Bob: man what a night……I mean a man should be stopped after 2 bottles of tequila……I mean this is just criminal…..

 Jim: Morning Bob! How are you today? Feeling a little under the weather huh?

 Bob: Shhhh! Can’t you see I’m in pain? Ohhhhh my head….

 Jim: Well folks look like it is just me today, aren’t you lucky?! Well time for a quick update me thinks. Looks like most of the Ogre Kingdoms have been sorted and models and book are on their way after the Summer of Chaos. The scraplauncha seems to be the main stay of their artillery and are manned by the knoblars. It has a strength of 2 and killing blow, and if that doesn’t scare you, if you get too close you get charged by the rhinox pulling the machine!

 Bob: oh gods why me? Why me? Take him god…..

 Jim: anyway folks, plans are already in action for the tournament after the Summer…..woah now don’t jump up and down, it is called the rise of Sotek and is based around the invasion of Lustria by the skaven way back in history, although they have tried justifying the fact that High Elves are there at the same time……doesn’t sit to well with me…..you know like those Burger King triple cheeseburgers with fat and beef and….

 Bob: oh God! I’m gonna puke…..I’m gonna puke!

 Jim: Well the Fields of Blood seem to be the next big event coming up and are targeted to start selling tickets on the first of August…….which doesn’t help anyone as it is a Sunday, but there are now 54 tickets for Fantasy and 40K and it has been said there will be a Lord of the Rings tournament so maybe get started on those ring bearers and come through…

 Bob: BBBlllaaaarggghh!

 Jim: Nice Bob real nice. Hey are those my goldfish Bob? You dirty punk, those are my goldfish!

 Bob: Blaaargh!

 Jim: well folks to keep things flowing…..well relatively speaking, There are a total of 3 characters for Ogre Kingdoms and 8 troop choices, including the cannibal ogres, man if they eat ogres think how tough they are? And they aren’t including the artillery piece, the scraplauncher mentioned earlier

 Bob: man do I feel……………..Bbbbbllllaaaarrrggghh!!!

 Jim: God damn it Bob! All over my new shoes! Well that is all from us folks. I’m Jim Johnson and………….well he’s throwing up! But come visit some time at the local forums…..I’m gonna kick an ogre some.
