Come get the scoop on the brand new Nurgle models that will be on the way soon, including Mortarion himself.

Several sources from Adepticon have confirmed that the picture below is in fact Mortarion’s scythe and there will indeed be a new model for the Plague Primarch released.

Plus as Games Workshop put it, this weapon is ” big enough to fell a primarch”.

And now the video for all of you that weren’t at the event, here is GW’s big reveal without the juicy details:

Wow!

It’s been a long time since we saw any new miniatures for Plague Marines, or Nurgle-worshipping Chaos Space Marines of any sort, for Warhammer 40,000, but it has certainly been worth it. Clearly not to be outdone by the recent return of their allies/rivals of the Thousand Sons, the unyielding warriors of Barbarus are returning, and they never looked so good.*

Remember how we said this was going to be the best year of Warhammer 40,000 ever?

We weren’t lying.

*Well, we guess, depending on how you look at it, to some people’s eye, they probably looked better before that whole infected-with-warp-borne-plague thing, but from a miniatures perspective, these are phenomenal.

Checkout Adepticon’s website for the full even line-up list, as we’ll try to cover as much as we can! Checkout the links below for our last eight years of covering the event from the hobby trenches, it’s been a blast.
