Well, this week it’s joined by some belief-beggaring new Warhammer models: the Putrid Blightkings and the mighty Chaos Lord Gutrot Spume. Never before have I witnessed such a splendid array of fearsome foulness – truly they are stunning exemplars of the sculptors’ art. I can’t wait to build and paint some and after reading this issue I hope you’ll be supplicating yourself before Grandfather Nurgle too. We’ve also got full rules for these mighty heroes of darkness, so you can add them to your Chaos army as you fight for survival in the End Times. And why not let us know how you’re doing in your End Times games? Is Nagash trampling all before him or are you successfully beating back the undead legions? Write in! Jes Bickham-White Dwarf Editor Mutated by the disgusting blessings of Nurgle, the twisted Blightkings are champions of the Plague God who have been bloated by his power. They are the vanguard of Nurgle’s armies, a pestilent brotherhood bound by the will of their putrescent deity. The Blightkings were once Chaos Warriors, tall and powerful foot soldiers who have proven both their loyalty and value to the god of decay. Once chosen by their patron, these blessed few are marked out in a disturbing and obscene manner, infected by a single daemonfly with a festering daemon-kiss. Within days of that initial touch, the warrior’s body begins to change, muscular flesh altering until he resembles a suppurating, obscenely mutated creature, rather than the hale warrior he once was. His pock-marked flesh bulges and splits and his limbs become lumpen and malformed. These Putrid Blightkings are drawn together like moths to a guttering candle, forming tight-knit warrior bands of Nurgle’s most fearsome and devout. The names of these groups are legend among the legions of Chaos; the Repugnauts, the Fly-brothers and the Rotlords, to name but three. Every member of their fraternity
