New Nurgle Champ - Gutrot Spume

Who doesn't think belly tentacles are a great idea!

The new Nurgle Special Character has a real nautical theme to him with gaping maw and squid tentacles - I'm really keen to hear what his back story is.


I think the model GW has come up with is really interesting. It seems to traverse the spectrum between Mortal and Daemon. In this it has a lot of utility to represent your Eye of the Gods outcome be it Daemon Prince or Chaos Spawn.

  1. I spent 3 years sailing through the South Pacific and not once did I see a gaping maw. Please elaborate on how gaping maws are "nautical".

    4. Pete - I didn't see Pirates or Keira Knightley either.
      Mandollies - no
      Ymmij - Yes lots and lots of these, I remember swimming in Niue where you have to push the venomous sea snakes out of the way and there are hundreds around you, but you wear gloves, booties and a head mask because their jaws are so small they can only bite between your fingers, toes, nose and ears. Mega-Rush!!!

    5. I have some great video of sea snakes in pools in niue. they also like following you to see what you're doing, so if you stop suddenly you can get hit in the back of the head :)

      obwf: um yeah nightrunners rock
