I picked up my data-cards this arvo – no campaign book for me since a mate is already getting it. Didn’t get a look at the Warlord traits in the book yet, but apparently there is a Tzeentch one that lets you harness on a 3+ (not sure whether that was on the Warlord or army, assuming Warlord only) and another Tzeentch one that turns your Warlord into a ML1 Psyker or adds +1 to your Mastery Level – which could be funny on a Khorne Demon Prince in the DP Formation lol?
Discipline of Plague:
Primaris – Stream of Corruption. Unchanged
