The Death Guard move forward through dense smog, thick spores, and buzzing flies. Favored by the Plague God Nurgle, these transformed fighters possess remarkable endurance, their corrupted bodies swollen with foul flesh fused to their massive battle armor. Armed with plague-infested weapons, they harness dark alchemy, sorcery, and supernatural diseases to devastate and overcome their enemies.
