The Postal goblins are back. With the 7th edition of Warhammer Fantasy Battles coming out, I looked at my army, and especially
with the new Orc & Goblin Army Book - realized they were completely nerfed. Just did not seem competitive any more. So after
some long seconds of deep soul searching, I thought to myself, "Self, I can rebuild this army. I have the technology. I can
make it stronger, more competitive, sillier than it was before."
I must have done something right, because at their premier tournament (GenCon 2007) they went and won the whole thing.
I was a bit surprised, as my goal, as always, was simply to get a few chuckles and have people appreciate my army.

Actually, I must have done something very right. At the Marauders Mayhem
held in Dayton on October 13-14, 2007, I took the Generals Choice award, as well as 2nd place for Sportsmanship. These
made me really feel good, as both are based on the votes of the other players (in fact my sportsmanship score was tied
for the top, with the tiebreaker being game play, and I got whupped pretty good in most of my games). Pics of the event
are here.
