New Forgeworld Goodies - Khorne, Nurgle, TAU,

[TSINI]

A new weapon for the Slaughterer


The plague Hulk of Nurgle,


XV9 'Hazard' Close Support Armour




The slaughterer looks nice, especially for a mish mash of old and new weapons vs technology.
The hulk of nurgle has some nice experimental rules, the Rancid Vomit rule especially, (2+ wound against any model with a toughness value)

and the TAU getting a slightly larger incarnation of the crisis suit, theyre starting to step up their vehicle size... maybe in lieu of a titan? or even a semi-titan.

I cant find these on the FW site are they only sitings or something?

Official announcement in 2 days. I think these were in a recent "preview" email.

I'm curious as to the expected release. That Nurgle Hulk looks great and will round out my soul grinders nicely, even if it is only "counts as" soul grinder. But the experimental vomit sounds interesting. I'm curious if there is any change to the back plate of the soulgrinder base...as in a nice steaming pot of corruption instead of a spine hatch.

I had such high hopes about the new Tau design, but I have to say I really don't like the new battle suit. The feet, shoulders, and head just don't look right. Especially the feet. My eyes are just drawn to them. Then there are the skinny chicken legs and the bulimic waist. I don't like the current plastic suits but if these were to replace them at any point I would field the old ones.

That new Tau suit looks stonking.

the tau is amazing i agree but the plague hulk is my favorite. I've never bought anything from forgeworld because of the cost but my god its so amazing I may just have to
