I wish to register my fondness for the Sontarans. My I'm speaking funny tonight. Anyway, give me evil spudheads any day. I always wanted to see more of that unending war with the Rutans.

It did seem the entire war happened off camera, I'll give you that. But Since the Doctor never seemed to meet either species in temporal order, it is hard to say if the war was on going or ended at some point.
POSSIBLE SPOILER BELOW: (highlight the entire lower line to see it.)
We might find in the Sontarans return that the war stil rages on.

Well, I don't know what you mean by "still", AR. 2008? That war's going on in the Dark Ages (Time Warrior)... It's still going on in 1984 (Two Doctors), and in the very distant future, thousands or hundreds of thousands? of years (Sontaran Experiment). Despite the fooling around with time in Time Warrior, there's no indication that Sontarans (or Rutans) travel in time themselves. So, the war's gone on from sometime before the European Dark Ages until sometime after solar flares drove humans off the Earth, thousands or a million (?) years from now. The Doctor jumps in and out of it all, but the Sontarans don't. It all happens to them in chronological order.

I saw Horror of Fang Rock when I first started getting into Classic!Who, and was all, 'Ha ha, green blob!' and continued watching the series. It was only recently that I realised that that green blob was what the Sontarans have been fighting for ages. xD
