The Green Tide keeps flooding in, so to speak. After the previous waves of Goblin Banner Bearers, Wolf Riders, Orcs and assorted Night Goblins and Orcs I have one more wave of Goblins to share. Let's call them 'Da Rest of Da 'Orde' and be done with it. (Until I finish painting more Greenskins, or decide to rebase the last holdouts on rounds after all).

I remember the old days. With Morrslieb ascendant, Goblin Green was the only green and raving lunatics slathered it onto bases with glee. Ol' Gorfang Rotgut—he must've been at least thirty years old back then—pulled me aside and said: "If da ground ain't shakin’ when yer marchin’, you ain't bringin' enough boyz."
Come to think of it, this might've just been a fever dream (not even the maddest maniac applies Goblin Green to bases, after all*).
But the advice still holds, and even if it didn't—no one who values an un-butted head argues with Gorfang.
That's why I always keep extra Greenskins lurking around the paint station, waiting for a coat of paint. The jury's still out on whether I place them there, or if they appear out of thin air. Either way, here's the latest batch I painted.
* Warning: you need at least one Dwarf flame thrower (or flame cannon) to enter this entirely artificial flame war ;)
