This may mean some people may need to shuffle their army in order to have the required number of Astartes units to unlock them. However we do see some new army construction rules in which you cannot have more Poxwalker units than Bubonic Astartes Core Infantry, and also no more cultist units than Bubonic Astartes. Plague Marines and Poxwalkers (but interestingly not cultists) have Objective secured, dispelling fears that the Poxwalkers may not have this (and making them really good for camping objectives, especially with their points cut!).
The Death Guard see quite a lot of changes in this new Codex, with a number of new keywords created in order to manage these rules. Keeping in line with the other recent Codex releases we also get a really clear and concise reference section containing the points in a much easier to digest format than in the 8th Edition books, and full quick reference glossary and rules appendix making it really handy for looking up rules mid-game. I really like these inclusions of a “real” army in addition to the ‘Eavy Metal images as this gives you more inspiration and ideas for the creation of your own force! In addition to this written review I have also filmed a video review on YouTube going through the entire 2021 Codex, so make sure to check that out below! Or if you rather your reviews in text form then make a fresh brew and read on!Īs with previous Codexes we also get a miniatures showcase showing off the entire range, but also a look at the Crusade army of Tom Moore of the Army Painter team painted in their classic Horus Heresy scheme.

Grandfather Nurgle’s face splits in a joyous grin as the Death Guard march to war.ĭue for release in late 2020 but fittingly delayed due to the current pandemic, the brand new Codex Death Guard for the 9th edition of Warhammer 40,000 is finally in our grubby disease ridden hands! We were lucky enough to be sent a copy a little early by Games Workshop, so settle back as we take a look through the new Codex and explore all its disgusting delights! Corrupted by the powers of Nurgle, the children of Mortarion grow bloated with filth, their unnatural resilience lending to their tenacious trench warfare abilities. The Lord of Plagues influence waxes as disease and rot spread across the galaxy.
