The Cover for the Tamurkhan's Horde Legends Compendium

Tamurkhan's Horde was an army originally from the Warhammer: Fantasy Battles that transitioned into Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. The army would later be re-released with Warhammer Legends, with warscrolls for every miniature Forgeworld has released.

Background

For more background information see: Tamurkhan's Horde
  • Background for the 2015 Compendium

In ancient days, the great horde of Tamurkhan the Maggot Lord swept out of the Northern Wastes despoiling all before it. Great slaughter it brought to many lands as Tamurkhan sought the Throne of Chaos, but at last was he felled in a cataclysmic battle, betrayed and defeated before the gates of the city of Nuln.

  • Background for the 2018 Compendium:

Lead by the grotesque warlord Tamurkhan, the mortal and daemonic servants of Nurgle sweep across the Mortal Realms, sowing the seeds of plague and corruption in the name of their patron.

Tamurkhan's Horde is a vast conglomeration of mortal and daemonic warriors, servants all to the Plague Father, and bound to the will of Tamurkhan the Maggot Lord. Such is Tamurkhan's loyalty that the god of disease saw fit to plant a piece of his soul within the Realm of Chaos, allowing him to be regrown and resurrected after the destruction of the world-that-was. This favoured champion has repaid his patron by rampaging across the Mortal Realms, delivering rot and ruin to the unfaithful.

Notes

  • The 2018 version of the Tamurkhan's Horde Compendium has 6 warscrolls.
    • It released with the Sons of the Maggot Lord and The Leaping Pox Battalions from the previous version.
    • It lost the 3 Slaves to Darkness and the Gigantic Chaos Spawn warscrolls from the previous version, the last which was moved to the Monstrous Arcanum Compendium.
    • It added Allegiance rules for playing a Tamurkhan's Horde army, giving the faction an ability, command ability, command trait, artefact of power and Pitch Battle Profiles.
    • The rules allowed Tamurkhan's Horde and Maggotkin of Nurgle armies to use any of the warscrolls from both factions.
  • Version 27/08/2021 of the Tamurkhan's Horde Legends Compendium had 6 Warscrolls.
    • It released with the Sons of the Maggot Lord and The Leaping Pox Battalions from the previous version.
    • It changed the Allegiance rules for playing a Tamurkhan's Horde army, by removing the ability and command ability.
    • Unlike the previous version, it limited the use of Tamurkhan's Horde units in a Maggotkin of Nurgle army, by forcefully turning it into a Tamurkhan's Horde faction if it has one.
