Clan Pestilens.....

In a classic move i popped into Games Workshop to buy a box of Night Goblins and walked out with the 'Battle for Skull Pass' starter set.

Why Night Goblins you ask?

Well you probably didn't ask but i'm going to tell you anyway.

After reading the Skaven background i have decided that Night Gobbo's will make excellent Skavenslaves. Also, the 'hooded' look will match the Clan Pestilens theme nicely.

Unfortunately 60 additional models has only added 120 points to my army, lol.

Basic army now consists of

Plague Priest on Plague Furnace
Plague Monks x30 w/Full Command and banner of 'No flying for anyone this turn and by the way your shooting sucks as well'
2 x 30 Clanrats w/ Full Command
3 x 20 Skavenslaves

Next Additions will most likely be

2nd Plague Priest on Plague Furnace
Another 30x Plague Monks to push the above

Slightly more long term projects (due to needing conversion work) will be

Plague Catapult
Hell Pit Abomination (Suitably diseased looking as anything Clan Moulder can do Clan Pestilens can do better)

  1. So what are you painting month 1&2? All of it?

  2. Just the Plague Monks that are pushing the Plague Furnace and Hopefully the Furnace itself for Jan/Feb.
    The rest of the units will stay at the 'assembled only' stage so i can use them for practice games but don't end up with too many things on the go at once.
    The Standard Bearer will be converted from one of the Plague Monks so will be done at the same time as them.

  3. The plan is to stick within the Monthly budget of £30 relating to what i'm painting but i'll probably have already acquired the models in advance for playtesting purposes.

    That made more sense in my head than when i typed it out........

  5. Aha - here's a fun project for you. As they're all slaves why not do some manacles, tying all their legs together or something?
