From tanks to Typhus, the new Death Guard are coming in hot! Let’s take a look at more of the datasheets and stats for this week’s new codex book.
Today we’re getting a preview look at datasheets and stats for new and old Death Guard units. There is a lot to go over so, for now, we will cover the new units and weapons that the Death Guard Codex is bringing to the table!
Typhus’ points and stats didn’t change much, but he did get a great new looking model.
The only difference from the index to the codex is his Manreaper is now master-crafted and does 3 Damage instead of D3.
The Foetid Bloat-Drone is not changing much, with it’s power dropping from 10 to 8. But it is getting access to two new weapon options, the fleshmower and the heavy blight launcher.
The fleshmower is a plague weapon with Strength +2, AP -2, does 2 Damage, and each time a Foetid Bloat Drone fights it can make 6 additional attacks with this weapon.
- Foul stench: Enemy units must subtract 1 from hit rolls when targeting this model in the fight phase.
- Putrescent Fog: Friendly Death Guard Infantry units that are entirely within 7″ gain the benefit of cover when making armor saves rolls.
We are seeing a ton of new units coming out of the Death Guard Codex, and so far we’re not disappointed. The Death Guard are looking even more deadly with every update we get, and we’re far from done.
