At GamesDay 2006 there were a fair few demonstration games. One such game featured an Ork settlement under attack from the Imperial Guard.

Defensive Outpost
One of the impressive games this year at GamesDay 2009 was the mega game which comprised a large Imperial city surrounded by a defensive wall. Outside the wall were more Imperial defences including this one which included a landing pad.
The model builders had used lots and lots of Imperial Bastions and Shrine of the Aquila. For the citybuildings they used the Cities of Death building kits. There were a fair few Valkyries flying about the game too.
Chaos Baneblade
This a Chaos BaneBlade was part of a demonstration game at GamesDay 2009.

Is it just me?
Is it just me but is any other Ork player looking at the new plastic Skaven Doomwheel and thinking, “now that could be an interesting Ork vehicle or bike!”
I am thinking a Weird Boy transport option.
Of course being plastic means that conversion should be easier than the previous metal version.
Thinking about it.
Plaguereaper of Nurgle
Plaguereaper of Nurgle on display at GamesDay 2007.
Converting a Plaguereaper requires a fairly high degree of modelling skill (and a particularly sinister mind, judging by our model shown here). These bastions of pestilence pour forth their corrosive filth onto the enemy, drowning the foe in flesh and armour-eating pus and muck. In game terms, the Plaguereaper shares much in common with a Baneblade, exchanging the main gun for the vile pus cannon. This Strength 7, AP 3 template weapon can dig out almost any defender from any position, the torrent of filth murdering anything shy of a Terminator. The mental image of a Plaguereaper plying its trade on the frontlines is almost as unpleasant as the battlefield reality.
Deathstorm Drop Pod
Deathstorm Drop Pods carry multiple robotic heavy weapons instead of troops. Once landed a Deathstorm Drop Pod will crack open to strafe the unsuspecting enemy.
This Forge World model is armed with Assault Cannons and was on display at GamesDay 2008.
Valkyrie

Grey Knight Terminator with Psycannon
One of my Christmas presents was a Grey Knight Terminator with a Psycannon.
Still in the blister…
One of the issues of being one of the slowest painters in the world is that when you eventually do paint the models, you can find that they have been replaced by newer plastic versions, which sometimes are better, sometimes not, but usually different…
Skullhamma Battle Fortress
The Skullhammer is the delight of many a Big Mek, a clanking hissing contraption inviariably made from looted parts.
On display at GamesDay 2007.
