The Cankerborn are some Nurgle Daemons that were included in Warhammer Quest: Darkwater. They are born of despoiling the realm itself, especially place of power (like the Jade Abbey!)
The Cankerborn
According to the latest Battle Profiles, the Cankerborn are HEROES....?! They can include any Daemon in a regiment they command!? I absolutely DO NOT need MORE heroes to lead more regiments, though! Luckily, these two can be included in Gelgus Pust's or the Great Unclean One's regiments as a "Plague Scion" - or, apparently, in a regiment commanded by Belga the Cystwitch...? So that's where they'd be fielded if ever I was playing with a game big enough I needed to include these!
(They can also be included in a regiment commanded by Festus the Leechlord or Rotigus... but it's not likely I'll be picking up either at any point in the immediate future!)
I've also been working on the Pestigors this weekend, but probably won't finish them up until early this next week... I actually have an exam on Monday I need to spend SOME time today studying for!?
Then it's just Belga the Cystwitch and the three heroes (and familiar.. and a few tokens...) and I'll be DONE all of the Warahmmer Quest: Darkwater miniatures!!


These are great! AoS needs more of this sort of thing.
ReplyDeleteHow big are they though? The one on the right seems like it has daemon prince potential.
Sorry, I will get some comparison shots in the next post. With the previous post I'd done big ALL THE DARKWATER STUFF and ALL THE NURGLE stuff pictures, and, when I posted this, I was pretty sure I'd be posting pestigors a day or two later, so kind of skipped that with these.
DeleteThose are 40mm bases. They are bigger than Putrid Blightkings, bigger than Mulgoth the Cleaver and the Blight Templars (well taller than all of them, at least), smaller than Gelgus Pust! They are definitely bigger than Plaguebearers and the Spoilpox Scrivener that I have (and Sloppily Bilepiper - that I haven't finished painting yet!)
Unpleasant looking nurgle command, nice work!
