Goblin definitions of “war” and “games” differ only
slightly. A game usually involves finding a bunch of other guys, preferably
smaller than you, and beating them to a pulp before running off with all their
money, equipment and pretty goblin ladies. War is much the same, except it
usually starts with comments about someone’s mother. To be good at goblin games
you really have to throw your whole self into the action, Angus McHammer does so
with gusto. Not usually so good at extracting himself from the ensuing crater he
nevertheless makes the most of his one moment of participation, hurling himself
into the fray, scattering friend and foe alike in a spirit of joyful abandon.
Occasionally he hits his target, more often than not he ends up wrapped in his
own chain, reduced to a spectator of the great goblin games.
Alignment: Competitive, malignant but not
necessarily evil.

Congratulations to the very worthy second places. So many wonderful entries, so much evocative character, such splendid fluff! The guys on the Oldhammer forum perfectly sum up the creativity, sociability and fun of old-school warhammering from before it got all glossy, corporate and mass-produced. I hold their work in high esteem and can only hope to aspire to work towards the standards of their modelling and painting, keep up the inspirational work chaps!
Well deserved mate - he'd be welcome in my Goblinoid horde any day!
