  • Ork Superheavy Blasta Bomma Brought Out of Mothballs!

    So I sliced my finger good (or bad, depending on how you look at it) the other day. It’s still thumping sore but works gotta go on, right? Here’s the cut… Doesn’t look like much in the photo at left, a small cut. What you can’t see very well in the photo is the deep…
