Poxmakers of Nurgle Monsters & Beasts

Rot Flies

Beasts of Nurgle, perpetually disappointed by the rag-doll inactivity of their mortal playthings, develop a kernel of bitterness in their ebullient souls. Crestfallen puzzlement leads to frustration and ultimately an aching resentment of the mortals that spurn its company. Over the millennia, a thin seed of malice grows in such a Beast's heart, feeding upon depression and angst until it throbs like a canker at the Daemon's core. Eventually the creature within bursts out of its fleshy sac as a full-grown Rot Fly, a creature of pitiless malice hell-bent on wreaking its revenge upon an uncaring universe.

Abilities

• Cloud of Flies
  Through His endless pestilent blessings, the Plague Lord's followers thrive and surge forward when others would simply wither and die.
  Melee Defence +9
• Daemonic Instability
  As the Daemon's courage falters, their mortal form crumbles and fades from this reality.
• Banished!
  Once the Daemon's courage has failed them, they will fall back through the portal to the Chaos Realm whence they belong.

Attributes

• Causes Fear
  This unit frightens all enemy units, reducing their leadership when nearby. It is also immune to fear. Fear penalties do not stack.
• Daemonic
  This unit is Daemonic (has physical resistance, does not rout, is immune to terror, takes damage when Leadership is low)
• Can Fly
  This unit can fly.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Armour-Piercing
  The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
