What was that wargame?? Help!

[Bezzo]

I have seen photos of a huge wargame and want to revisit it. But have been unable to find it so far...which is where LAF members come in  .

It was a multi-player invasion game and I think was 40K based. I have a vague memory of it being called Ork-inawa or some similar WW2 pun. It involved at least 7 airships based on conversions of the Disney Atlantis submarine, and Orky bombers, as well as land and naval forces.

As I say it was a colossal board absolutely full of terrain, buildings, troops, and equipment so must have been the efforts of several gamers. There was definitely a large river/small sea splitting the board lengthways.

Does anyone else remember this. I think it may be 2-4 years ago. All my Google Fu has been futile,,,can anyone assist my failing memory.

Was it an Epic game?





Found it at a Flickr account with the following info:

Nick Pope
Orc-inawa
Orc invasion fleet. GW Epic models plus loads of home made vehicles. I think this was using FWC rules.

After some more Googling, I found it was a game at COLOURS 2010 Newbury. You can see more pictures here:

Mildly better than my Porta-Loo game, a re-enactment of Napoleon's bladder problem.

My game had a smaller budget:

It's not surprising that button-counters won't play WWII with me anymore:
