Orkmas is, for many greenskins, a time of great rejoicin’, lootin’, and krumpin’. For the defenders of the Free Soviet of Grot and Mek Workers, however, it was to prove a time of great peril. The Soviet had been established on the planet Uessessarr during the tumultuous days of Doctor Morork’s revolt. There, Gretchin and Ork Meks lived a hard life of proletarian toil, but one free from exploitation by brutal and avaricious Orkish warbosses.
Through the Mororkian Wars that followed, they were largely ignored. That changed, however, following the defeat of Doctor Morork’s forces at the Second Battle of Who-Ville. Recognizing the threat posed by workers’ solidarity, two large Orkish armies were sent to capture the Soviet. A prime target was the city of Orkingrad, situated on the banks of the mighty Volgrot River....

This was enjoyable. While I'm not a big supporter of free grots, my bigmek does recognize their usefulness. I liked all the battle of stalingrad esthetic. Personally I love cities of death and this battle report was doing it for me. And the stompa pacific rim was humorous. Keep it up, will have to keep up on your blog.

Just fantastic - good writing, great scenario, neat models and spot on humour.

I've added a few more. To be frank, we all got so caught up in the life-and-death struggle that we forgot to take pictures at several points!
