Rogue Traders are often fighting against Eldar, Necrons, Tau etc but Nurgle was unexpected.
Cool looking models

Pretty awesome. I don't really like the random organic spikes on the new Nurgle stuff and the humans seem to still have Cadian proportions, but other than that I'm fairly excited by what I see.
Seems odd that they put them on soil and grass bases.

I think this is why we didn't get a Poxwalker multi-part kit at launch for Death Guard. Because most of that Nurgle stuff looks remarkably Poxwalkery.
Also, I am so going to need that dog. Until I see specific fluff about this being Rogue Trader related though, I'm going to say that it's "Rogue Trader-inspired" because those troopers look really similar to the RT stuff that we used to see.
Damn - more must-need minis that'll sit in their box on a shelf, if I can find the room :(
Check out my gallery here Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!
The video's still there if you have the link, but the post on the Warhammer 40,000 Facebook page appears to have gone. The Inquisition don't do funk, it seems.
Wow, that's a lot of Blanchian awesomeness there. The Nurgle side I can do without, but I'll definitely be keeping a close eye on the Imperial half. Between this and Necromunda, they're really knocking the lesser-seen side of the setting out of the park at the moment!

I think that is much more likely to be the lady with the fancy clothes and long-barrelled pistol. The character with the tesla coils is clearly the techie. Has a mechanicus logo in the chest and everything.

Strong miss for me.
Chaos vs Imperium types again. Yawn.
Unless GW have a new found love for that particular font in orange(its used in the pages of the Kill team rulebook in its preview vid). I think there is a good chance the two are related.
