Summer of Hobbying 2019: combined Nurgle force (AoS)

Anyone order a slice of fungus toad bleak throat rot pizza? No?

These chaps haven’t been on the blog for a couple of years now, in fact they were still AoS 1.0 last time I checked. But now that Maggotkin of Nurgle and AoS 2.0 came out last year, it’s time to bring this project up to date.

Currently there’s only a unit of Blightkings to base and decorate, a second battline unit needed to play a 1,000pt game. As you can see, the army is a mixed bunch of Chaos models who bear the mark of Nurgle. Back in AoS 1.0, it was open to have a mixed army even if synergy was lacking. But I’m not sure if this army is up to scratch in its current state.

Because I’ve already got a lot on the list of stuff needed for my other projects, I don’t think I can add much to my Nurgle army. That said, I think having a blight tree will be a good start, as well as maybe a Start Collecting! Maggotkin of Nurgle. But I don’t feel like getting the whole Nurgle range, and I’ll leave adding stuff to this project as the last of my list.

Meanwhile I’ll be changing a few things in my army, like my substitute GUO who will now be a mutated Chaos Giant. Since I don’t have much other substituting options, a Chaos Giant fits well enough. Because there’s now a new GUO, my substitute model is no longer suitable for such a title.

On the good side, I think this army will be very beneficial to my Clan Pestilence portion of my Skaven army. Since both armies have a great deal in common about bad hygiene and spreading corruption, narrative stories will be so much fun with this strange alliance.

That’s all for today. Next up, it’s the Skaven! How in Sigmars name will I be able to take photos of the whole army in one?

Until next time,

-Bjorn
