Morning all. This is what happens when I leave the Challenge for more than a week: huge numbers of entries!

That's all good though...the more the merrier...but it would be nice to see some of the less frequent contributors upping their, er, contributions. Come on everybody: it's September already. Time to get those points totals up to record levels. All you have to do is beat what you did last year by one point...

Anyway, onto today's entries. In no particular order we have:

Jon Yuengling with a mix of scales and periods
More sci-fi goodness from Carole Flint
Super-painter Matt Slade pops in two entries: some Crusader-period Arabs and, in contrast, some GW tanks
Fresh from a night out with Yours Truly, Mr Hodge sends in more of his micro armour for Normandy
Mervyn falls short of expectations. Well, his entry is a unit of dwarves...
A colossal entry from Mr Ralls: all WW2, all 28mm
Sapper has more Hittites and a handful of Romans
Chris Stoesen sends in more pirates than would fit on a dead man's chest
Stumpy bases some more Frenchies
And last, but by no means least, Mr Helliwell has been clearing his lead mountain of Germans and Romans
