Just want to recommend this to everyone reading. Skype (www.skype.com) is a program that lets you make phone calls from your computer. If you ring someone else’s computer, the calls are free. You can also purchase pre-paid credit (which I have done), and call normal house phones from your computer for about 3 cents per minute, to just about anywhere in the world, and certainly anywhere in Australia.
All you need for this is a microphone and speakers or, better yet, a set of headphones with a microphone attached. I bought my headset for $40, but you save so much on phone calls it makes up for it easily. The sound quality is good too.
Post here if you decide to download it with your username so I can add you!
Well, I formatted my computer today… and forgot to write down email addresses. Can everyone please email me their address again???
With only 10 weeks to go (!), I think Leanne and I have finally settled on a name.
If it is a boy: Connor Shane Garvey
If it is a girl: Chloe Lee Garvey
"We stand here today in honour of those that have fallen, giving their lives to save our mighty Empire. Once again, we have pushed back the forces of Chaos and ensured our safety for another year. Praise Ulric!"
– Victory speach after narrowly defeating the armies of Chaos
I finally did it; I beat Phil using my Empire army. He didn't take a Daemon Prince nor the Plaguebearers, and it looked bad for him early as I filled his troops with hot lead. But once they got into combat, things were much different.
Final Scores: Empire 1430 def. Chaos 1225.
"It's happening again. Every summer, it seems, those foul creatures from the north march down to the Empire, raping and pillaging as they go. They have already crushed much of Kislev again, and are now on the way towards the northern provinces of our beloved Empire. This year, however, will be different, for this year we march to meet them at the border. We will give no quarter, and should Ulric smile on us, we will send them fleeing back to their wasteland. For Ulric and the Empire!"
– Final entry from the journal of Freidreich, Knight of the White Wolf.
I like nice little back stories to my Warhammer games 
Phil and I are playing a 2000 point game this weekend, Empire vs Chaos. What each of us will take is anybodies guess; will Phil take a Daemon Prince like he hinted? Will the Plaguebearers show up? Will I take a Steam Tank or Volkmar? Or both? Will my cannons actually not misfire for once?
