Forgeworld Teaser - Deathshroud???

For those of you on the FW mailing list, you will have received a couple of Newsflashs over the past week that include a teaser of an upcoming model.

Initially I wasn't too excited as the first piece showed a set of Tartaros Terminator Armour and my Death guard were going to use Cataphracti.

Last night the second piece was released and here they are fitted together:


Now the left hand piece has too interesting details on it. First, there is a chest mounted rebreather very similiar to that on the Death Guard Contemptor Dread. Secondly, it looks like he could be holding a scythe - Deathshroud Terminators used Manreaper-like weapons.

So I'm going to call it a Deathshroud - and yes they will be in my Death Guard.

The only misgiving I have is that previous illustrations of Deathshroud have always showed them in the older Cataphracti Terminator Armour.


And if Deathshrouds are here then Mortarion can't be far away.

    1. Curze is batman/Kurtz from Heart of Darkness/Apocalypse now, he never was supposed to be well adjusted. He just wasn't passive aggressive or whiney, he was just nuts in a interesting way.
