GW has pulled back the curtain and the loathsome Maggotkin of Nurgle are here to infect the tabletops of the Age of Sigmar! I think I feel sick…
GW is here with the latest weekly releases headed your way. These should be going up for presale on January 4th.
Battletome: Maggotkin of Nurgle
“You can cultivate your own army of mortals and daemons with Battletome: Maggotkin of Nurgle – a 106-page guide to the Plague God’s bloated and pestilent legions, their diseased domains, and the battle for the Realm of Life that continues to wax and wane.
All of this lore is supported by art and miniatures galleries that celebrate the loathsome appearance of the Maggotkin of Nurgle. Then, tap into the Grandfather’s blessings on the battlefield with updated battle traits, enhancements, warscrolls, two Regiments of Renown and two Armies of Renown, a new Spearhead, and Path to Glory rules.
This book will also be available in a smaller gamer’s edition, which includes a full set of 56 reference cards.”

Festus the Leechlord
“Leading the slow yet steady charge into battle for the Maggotkin of Nurgle is Festus the Leechlord. A former plague doctor who has since been twisted into an alchemist of virulent and supernatural diseases, Festus has ascended to daemonhood and slithers into battle atop the back of the great beast Gathoblyt.
He debilitates foes with vile poisons and toxins, conjuring parasitic leeches to drain the life from enemies and transfer it to his own bloated body. This plastic kit is suffused with diseased detail, and comes with a choice of two heads for Festus.”
Sloven Knights
“A dark parody of honourable and gleaming cavaliers, Sloven Knights are dread figures riding atop miserable and plague-ridden steeds. Wherever they ride a grim aura of despair follows, causing enemies to fall into an indolent torpor as Nurgle’s knights charge into their prey and smash them into a pulp with brutal, blunted weapons. This plastic kit builds three Sloven Knights, with a variety of head options. “
Putrid Blightkings
“Some of Nurgle’s most devoted servants become the bloated brutes known as Putrid Blightkings. These mortals swell to overwhelming size with rot and disease, their putrid flesh becoming a bulwark against all but the most vicious of attacks.

Their pious proclamations and noisome stench warps reality around them, causing the spells and prayers of wizards and priests to falter on their lips. This plastic kit builds five Putrid Blightkings, with an alternate head for the champion, and the option to turn one into a standard bearer. “
Rotswords
“Jittery and wracked with fever, Rotswords rush into battle soaked with sweat and exuding an overwhelming stench that causes even the staunchest of warriors to falter. They delight in carving open their foes and spreading Nurgle’s gifts, eager to burn out their supernatural fever through acts of desecration and perhaps one day be accepted into the ranks of the Blightkings.
AdvertisementThis plastic kit builds 10 Rotswords, with unique options for a champion, musician, and a standard bearer who has a choice of two icons. The kit includes 12 interchangeable heads, 10 interchangeable weapons, and 10 interchangeable shields.”
Pestigors
“Pestigors are beastmen who worship Nurgle as Father Blight, and use his pestilent gifts to bring ruin to civilization. Hunchbacked, potbellied, and racked with illness, these nomadic creatures are vectors of contagion, and fight with a frenzied vigour when desecrating enemy territory. This plastic kit builds 10 Beastmen, with options to build a champion, standard bearer, and musician.”
Court of Gelgus Pust
“First available in Warhammer Quest: Darkwater, Gelgus Pust – the Prince of Sores – has ventured out of the Jade Abbey to aid the Grandfather in his bid for dominion over the Mortal Realms, polluting the land and crushing his foes in combat.
He is joined by Belga the Cystwitch, who causes diseased foes to suffer even more with each death summoning Plaguebearers, and Shaman Foulhoof, who enhances the combat prowess of Pestigors and uses his sorcery to weaken enemy weapons. All three are push-fit, single pose miniatures.”

Cankerborn
“A pair of ancient daemons once said to have been part of a group of seven, the Cankerborn are summoned from the Garden of Nurgle when an act of foul desecration is committed upon the land in Nurgle’s name. When the battlefield is polluted, either by Gelgus Pust or the Pestilent Pollutants that often manifest alongside them, they can flicker out of existence and reappear elsewhere in order to cut their foes down with colossal, seeping blightblades.
This push-fit plastic kit contains two Cankerborn and two Pestilent Pollutant tokens, which were previously available in Warhammer Quest: Darkwater.”
Pox Wretches
“Outcasts and mutants who have found succour in the worship of Nurgle, Pox-Wretches are lowly followers of the Plague Father who cover themselves in filth and embrace disease with an unhealthy hunger. Their vile and rot-encrusted forms attract slimy Mire Kelpies to them, which help the Pox-Wretches spread disease with greater efficacy.
This plastic push-fit kit builds 14 Pox-Wretches and six Mire Kelpies. Each group of seven Pox-Wretches has two build options, so you can build a full set of 14 unique miniatures.”
Spoilpox Scrivener
“Miserable and officious, Spoilpox Scriveners are Plaguebearers who have been charged with cataloguing the tally reaped by their allies. Little alleviates their foul mood, but browbeating other daemons into performing their task more effectively brings them some modicum of mirth. This miniature, previously available in the Maggotkin of Nurgle Spearhead, is returning as a solo release. “
Regiments of Reknown – The Pustules
“One of the two Regiments of Renown in Battletome: Maggotkin of Nurgle is The Pustules, a tallyband of Plaguebearers charged with spreading disease across the land. They seed a Feculent Gnarlmaw when they arrive, providing them with healing and regeneration, and a Spoilpox Scrivener ensures they get on with their important work without delay. This box is available while stocks last.”
Spearhead: Bubonic Cell
“Bring the Grandfather’s gifts to the closely-fought battlefields of Spearhead with the Bubonic Cell. Ordered by Nurgle to cultivate tendrils of his garden far and wide, this force combines daemons and mortals into one effective package. A Rotbringer Sorcerer commands a delegation of Rotmire Creed, two packs of three Nurgling bases, and a rambunctious Beast of Nurgle. They draw on the power of the cycle of corruption to overwhelm their foes.”
Made to Order: Sisters of Battle Army Set
“You can start a brand new Adepta Sororitas army or add to an existing collection with the return of the Sisters of Battle Army Set via Made to Order. This cadre of devout Battle Sisters contains a Canoness, a Penitent Engine, a Repentia Superior and four Sisters Repentia, three Arco-flagellants, a five-strong Seraphim squad, and a Battle Sisters squad comprising 10 miniatures…
As a Made to Order product, this Sisters of Battle Army Set will be available from 1st January 2026 until 8am GMT on Monday 12th January 2026. Production and shipping of this product can take up to 180 days. “
