Now a interesting little note, that I personally haven't seen before Nagash, but that GW seems to be intent on keeping; The rules for these units are featured in the White Dwarf and in the construction booklet that accompanies the miniature. I really like this part, as it also shows a new side of the miniatures and possibly a new route for GW when it comes to new models to be added to their armies, outside of their codices.
I love the models personally - A shame I don't play Fantasy.
It is slightly annoying that none of these pictures show the points costs. Nice minis though.
EDIT: apparently they are all around the 400pts mark and are lords. I wish Gutrot Spume was a Hero because then I wouldn't have to play End Times rules to fit him and one of these guys in a 2k game.
Just say you're going to play with 50% Lord allowance. It's what the next edition is clearly going to be. Very few other changes are brought in - a few unique options for scenery, the big use of the Lore of Undeath accessible by everyone, the 50% lord allowance, and the combined profiles.
The rest of the options don't affect you other than provide a new army for you to play against. It's slightly annoying that for most armies, the Nagash End Times book basically means "hey here's a new lore of magic and 50% lords, now, gimme £50". These rules should have been released free and would quite frankly drag people back into the game. While it's seen a slight revival, if people are going to drop that amount of money into something they'll choose the superior 30K game system.
Still, that said, it's rarely been easier to get into the game as a result of the 50% points limit (people can actually afford to buy the model, and then play with them without needing to play 3K games), as well as taking a competitive option.
However, got to say, I'm disappoint that GW went the typical way for undeath, ooh nurgle. Should have done Slaanesh, people trying deserately for love and the threat of death putting people together or something.
Why is it that people with 63 million mega pixel camera iphones exist, and yet we're left with something that looks like it was it was taken by something which doubles up as a potato stunt double at weekends?
Cause most of those that have the 63 mil pix would sue the photographer to the point that there would be donation commercials in third world countries.
Also a follower of Nurgle as well. It would be nice to see some other races corrupted by Chaos, besides just humans and Dwarfs. (Not sure if beastmen or skaven count as they're inherently as chaotic as daemons.)
oh yes! Both my 40k and WHFB main armies are Nurgle so this release has been an orgy of delight for me. I got two boxes along with Gutrot (looking forward to the Maggot Lords and Glottkin but the new end times book the most).
>>How do you do your nurgley flesh? I use army painter bone spray, then wash with the green shade gw do, cannae mind what it's called. But tips to make my nurgle fellas look better would be grand!:grin:
There's also a good guide on this forum somewhere.
