We know they’re coming. Their arrival unstoppable as winter itself. Codex Death Guard will be here in December. Games Workshop has been stoking the excitement through a series of planned and “accidental” Death Guard model previews.
Our first entrant came to us from the Space Marine online preview. Tending to the Legion’s Daemon Engines, the Lord of Virulence, provides aura’s and buffs for them. In addition, he’ll be no pushover in combat with Terminator armor, a gooey Power First, and what looks like a twin Plague Spitter.
Our next participant lurked in the same video, but didn’t get a callout. Warhammer Community recently admitted to the “accidental” spoiler. They’ve come clean about the Miasmic Malignifier. Not only does it produce a Putrescent Fog around the model, but also hurts nearby enemies and may even explode when destroyed. Thus spreading Nurgle’s love even further!
Now on to the final preview for today. Space Marine Heroes 3 is scheduled to arrive in just over a week. Like the previous Space Marine Heroes sets, the models are sold in blind-buy packaging. However, each display contains one of each of the models. Either take your chances with single pulls or grab a display for a guaranteed six.
Each of Mortarion’s heroes also comes with their own Nurgling companion. Take a look at all six. Er, five? Yes, the five preview models shown below.
Mysterious number six, only shown in silhouette, will portray either a Champion or Lord. Whichever he ends up being, I’m sure he’ll be a as detailed and gruesome as the rest.
I’m sure Games Workshop will slip a few more Death Guard model previews out in the buildup to the Codex’s release. Which figures have caught your attention? Which ones do you foresee joining your Long War against the False Emperorer? Let us know in the comments. Also, if you see something I’ve missed, then pass it one. I’ll include it, and a credit, in the next In the Pipeline article.
