Abilities
While this model is leading a unit, add 1" to the Move characteristic of models in that unit and you can re-roll Advance and Charge rolls made for that unit.
In the Battle-shock step of your opponent's Command phase, if an enemy unit that is below its Starting Strength is within 9" of this model, that enemy unit must take a Battle-shock test, subtracting 1 from that test if it is a Psyker unit.
This model can be attached to the following units: Plague Marines, Poxwalkers You can attach this model to a Plague Marines or Poxwalkers unit, even if one other Leader unit has already been attached to it (you cannot attach more than one of the same Leader to the same unit). If you do, and that Bodyguard unit is destroyed, the Leader units attached to it become separate units, with their original Starting Strengths.
If your Army Faction is DEATH GUARD, while an enemy unit is within Contagion Range of one or more Death Guard units from your army, it is Afflicted.
CONTAGION RANGE 1st Battle Round: Contagion Range = 3" 2nd Battle Round: Contagion Range = 6" 3rd Battle Round Onwards: Contagion Range = 9"
Contagion Range cannot be greater than 12" after modifiers.
AFFLICTED
During the Declare Battle Formations step, select one of the Plagues below. Until the end of the battle, while an enemy unit is Afflicted, subtract 1 from the Toughness characteristic of models in that unit, and that unit has the effect of your chosen Plague.
Skullsquirm Blight Each time a model in this unit makes a melee attack, subtract 1 from the Hit roll.
Rattlejoint Ague Worsen the Save characteristic of models in this unit by 1.
Scabrous Soulrot Worsen the Move, Leadership and Objective Control characteristics of models in this unit by 1 (this rule can only worsen a model's Objective Control characteristic to a minimum of 1).
Each time an attack made with a [LETHAL HITS] weapon results in a critical hit, you can choose for that attack to automatically wound the target. Designer’s Note:* Choosing to automatically wound the target means that no wound roll is made for that attack. You may decide against this, as it means that attack cannot result in a critical wound* and so cannot trigger other abilities such as [DEVASTATING WOUNDS].
