So, I like to play with odd units that others don't even think of/won't touch.
The other day I'm scrolling through Wahapedia, browsing for cheap Nurgle options, & came across these guys.
Hmmm, these seem to fit the bill: Cheap & I've never seen anyone use them (in KT or 40k)

Local shop(s) don't have any & I don't even recall seeing the re-boxed set come in.
GWs out.
Everyone else I order from is out. Including Amazon & eBay.
I could bitz buy them from ebay. But that's just pointlessly expensive.

The thing is? I also have never seen a list using them or heard any chatter (good/bad/etc) about them.
So who is buying/using this kit that I've decided my DG list needs??

Have any of you seen anyone using these things in 40k? If so, what were the results?

They look like a pretty handy space-filler. Fast, so they can fill the gaps behind fast stuff. Wimpier than Cultists, but resurrecting and won't lose models to morale. Not taking up space in a detachment will be most handy in small CSM lists that take three Legionary squads for the psyker & gatling cannon

I wish they could be taken only in CSM armies where every unit in the main detachment is Nurgle-marked. I think that it would be more reasonable in only the warlord and maybe one other unit was Nurgle for Gellerpox to be taken.

There is one listing on ebay right now that looks to be priced reasonably.
