Come see what looks to be four new units for the upcoming Death Guard releases that were just spotted!

Death Guard is up next for a new codex with the Adeptus Mechanicus shortly behind. Let’s see what Games Workshop had to say about the upcoming codecies.

The Death Guard are almost here, and with them, yet another new codex for Warhammer 40,000.

Now checkout the picture below very carefully:

Oh my are those new terminators being led by the bearer of the destroyer hive himself: Typhus?

Perhaps two new terminator squads.. one of them never more than 49 paces from their master, the Deathshroud?

Front and center is what appears to be a very dynamic looking Typhus.

Are the Terminators on the left of the Typhus looking model Grave Wardens? The two Terminator squads look to be very differently posed and sized so I think a dual kit may not be the case here?

Also checkout those drones, which appear to be new kits, rocking new weapon options?

Last but certainly not least, the new plague tanks are holding it down behind Mortarion!

Speaking of big M, how you like him now after seeing him with all his boys?

It looks like we’ll be seeing a new codex for the Death Guard in September with the Adeptus Mechanicus codex coming out shortly afterwards,

What do you think about the latest announcement? Which models are you looking forward to more?
