Age of Sigmar - Maggotkin of Nurgle

 Just because I have a page for ALL THE OTHER Chaos armies... I figured I might as well have one for the Maggotkin of Nurgle... 

I do not have a lot of things for the Maggotkin of Nurgle... It all started with Wurmspat - the Warhammer Underworlds Warband... and for a long time, that was it... then I decided, on a whim, to pick up a Lord of Plagues... I thought maybe they could be used in Soulbound (the role-playing game) as some encounter in a nasty foetid swamp in Ghyran...? 


PAINTED


ALL the stuff I have painted for the Maggotkin of Nurgle... 

Yeah, it's not a lot... 


Heroes

Lord of Plagues


Units

Plaguebearers! 



Legends


Wurmspat - one of my favourite Warhammer Underworlds warbands. The Warhammer Underworlds warbands, which used to be playable in Age of Sigmar, are kind of being phased out in this edition and joining "Legends". There are stats available for them - as a pdf download - but they're not really playable in matched play or other organized play... 


Still to Do

I basically just have the Spearhead army to do.. .

  • 1x Spoilpox Scrivener 
  • 1x Pusgoyle Blightlord
  • 1x Pusgoyle Blightlord
  • 5x Putrid Blightkings
  • 10x Plaguebearers 

(I'll probably build one of those Pusgoyle Blightlords as a Lord of Affliction and just call it a well armoured Pusgoyle Blightlord in Spearhead... the Lord of Afflictions will be MUCH more useful in regular Age of Sigmar... without one, the two Pusgoyle Blightlords wouldn't be able to join any of the regiments led by any of the heroes I have... so...) 


THE PLAN

I don't really have much of a plan... because I don't have much of a force... 


SPEARHEAD

As with most Age of Sigmar armies, the first step is to paint up the stuff for a Spearhead army. 

The Maggotkin of Nurgle Bleak Host Spearhead force includes:

  • 1x Spoilpox Scrivener (General)  - Still to do...
  • 1x Pusgoyle Blightlord - Still to do...
  • 1x Pusgoyle Blightlord - Still to do...
  • 5x Putrid Blightkings - Still to do... 
  • 5x Plaguebearers - Done! 
  • 5x Plaguebearers - Done! 



PATH TO GLORY

The next step would be putting together enough for a Path to Glory force... 

Rotbringer General's Regiment

  • Hero -  Lord of Plagues (1) 110 - Any Rotbringers Infantry
  • Unit - Putrid Blightkings (5) 190 - Rotbringers, Infantry

Lord of Aflictions' Regiment

  • Hero - Lord of Afflictions (1) 180 - Any Plague Drones, Any Pusgoyle Blightlords
  • Unit - Pusgoyle Blightlords (1) 130 - Rotbringers, Cavalry

Nurgle Daemon Regiment

  • Hero - Spoilpox Scrivener, Herald of Nurgle (1)  100 - Any Daemon
  • Unit - Plaguebearers (10) 140 -  Daemon, Infantry
  • Unit - Plaguebearers (10) 140 -  Daemon, Infantry

Total: 990 points?! 






STUFF TO GET

Do I NEED more stuff for this... 

No... Probably not... 

Will I get more for this force... 

Probably at some time!

There are some cool-looking units available... 

I do like their faction terrain - the feculent gnarlmaw. I have no idea what it does in the game... but it looks kind of weird, so I'd like to get one at some point. I've kind of wanted one for ages - just to have as some weird terrain. Should have gotten it ages ago, when it was, like, half the price it is now!!

I probably don't need any more character/heroes... but I do like the Sloppity Bilepiper... and if I were to ever build this up to 2000 points, I'd probably pick up a Great Unclean One.
