Next up is their Deadly Pathogens ability. These optional upgrades can be applied to a Plague Weapon wielded by one of your Death Guard Characters for a nominal charge in points/Power. Not only does a Deadly Pathogen add 1 to the Strength of the Plague Weapon, but you can also choose one of seven effects to apply to it as well. Get ready to unleash…
Viscous Death is the perfect choice of Deadly Pathogen for the twin plague spewer wielded by the new Lord of Virulence.
As well as allowing you to re-roll the number of attacks made, Viscous Death will bump up the twin plague spewer’s already brutal profile to Strength 6 too. That means you’ll be wounding anything with Toughness 3 or less on a 2+ and re-rolling any rolls of 1 to wound – that’s some seriously horrible damage output right there!
We’ll have more on the new Death Guard rules every day this week
