GWS-97-18 Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000 & Age of Sigmar: Nurglings

About This Kit

Nurglings grow inside the swollen bowels of a Great Unclean One, feed on the filth of their parent, and eventually pop out fully formed as the walking personification of a burst boil. Their teeth are razor sharp and their bites are rarely fatal on the spot, which is rather the point: what they leave behind is a long and thoroughly unpleasant decline.

The kit builds three swarms, each a tottering stack of the things in front, middle and back ranks, all of them saturated in sores and lumps and openings that ought not to be there. The poses are characterful, and most of the character is revolting.

What's Included

• (3x) Nurgling swarms
• (3x) 40 mm round bases

The kit comprises 16 plastic components in total, and there are loose individual Nurglings left over for basing other models in your army.

You Also Need

You will also need plastic glue and paint to finish this kit. Warhammer Colour, formerly Citadel Colour, is what Games Workshop recommends.

Key Features

• Games Workshop states 27 possible combinations of Nurgling tower from the parts in the box
• Each swarm assembles in front, middle and back ranks, so the stack reads as a crowd rather than a lump
• Spare individual Nurglings for scattering across bases elsewhere in a Nurgle collection, which is where most of this kit's long-term value sits
• Serves two game systems from one box

Who It's For

Nurgle players in either system: Chaos Daemons or Death Guard in Warhammer 40,000, Maggotkin of Nurgle in Warhammer Age of Sigmar. Swarms are cheap, awkward to shift, and good at sitting on something the enemy wants.

The spare Nurglings are the quiet reason to own this box even if the swarms never see a table. A Nurgling peering out from under a Plague Marine's boot is the sort of detail that ties a whole army together, and there are enough here to do it repeatedly.

Age & Safety

Contains small parts and components with fine points. Not suitable for children under 3 years. Recommended for ages 12+. Model comes unassembled and requires assembly and painting.
