An Infected warband must include a minimum of three models. You have 500 gold crowns you can use to recruit and equip your warband. The maximum number of warriors in the warband is 18.
Promotion: If the Plague Priest dies, then a Plague Missionary with the highest experience (random if both are equal) takes the position, he gains the Charismatic Leader, Miracle Cure and the Wizard skills (see Plague Priest entry for details), however he does not inherit any spells. This now frees the warband to hire another Plague Missionary.
The following special rule does not apply to the members of this warband directly, but does effect other warriors when a Carrier infects them (see Plague Priest entry for rules)
Plague Zombie: The warrior becomes a Plagued (see Elf Followers entry for rules) Henchman of the Infected warband, he gains no further experience, but keeps his weapons and spells (not prayers), and buys equipment from his normal equipment lists.

Weapons/Armour: A Plague Priest may be equipped with weapons and armour chosen from the Priest equipment list.
SPECIAL RULES
Charismatic Leader: Any warrior within
6" of the Plague Priest may use his Leadership characteristic when
taking Leadership tests. Also if the Plague Priest is taken out of
action then all rout tests have a +2 until the end of the game.
Immunity: No effect from poisons or other diseases.
Miracle Cure: At the end of a battle, if the Plague Priest is not out of action, he may sacrifice 1 Wyrdstone to save up to 2 henchmen who die as a result of Plague rolls, NOT combat injuries.
Carrier: The warrior can infect other characters
in hand-to-hand combat, which they take out of action.
Henchmen who roll a 6 on the injury result chart becomes Plagued (see
Elf followers).
Heroes who roll a 16-21 on the injury chart become Plagued (See Elf
followers) and the Multiple Injury result is ignored.
If the warrior is kept by the warband then from that point onwards they
must roll for injuries as if they were a henchman (1D6: 1-2 Dead) and
follow the Plagued rules.
If the warband decides to loose the hero at the end of that game, then
he becomes a Plague Zombie (see Special Rules
above)
Wizard: The Plague Priest even though he sees himself as a Holy Man is actually a wizard and uses the Gifts of the Great Nurgle (See Gifts of the Great Nurgle)

Weapons/Armour: Plague Bearers come equipped with a two-handed sword, and do not use any other equipment.
SPECIAL RULES
Carrier: see Plague
Priest entry for rules.
Fear: Plague Bearers cause Fear.
Nothing to Learn: Plague Bearers have nothing to learn from the Mortals, so the do not gain experience.
Cloud of Flies: A cloud of flies swarms around the Plague Bearer which gets in the mouth, hair and eyes of attackers, as a consequence anyone attacking suffers a -1 to hit.
You’re Not Worthy: The Infected warband must have at least 9 other warriors when it is Summoned (see below), or else the Plague Bearer does not appear.
Daemon Realm: Plague Bearers, being Daemons, cannot suffer mortal wounds as they are immortal, at the end of a battle or if they are taken out of action they return to the Daemon Realm. They do not count against you Warbands total for selling Wydstones.
Summoned: A Plague Priest must summon Plague Bearers by invoking an incantation (during his shooting phase), like a spell with a Difficulty of 7. When Summoned the Plague Bearer must be placed within 6" of the Plague Priest, if it is in base contact with an enemy warrior, it counts as a charge. The Plague Bearer counts as being in play, before it is summoned, for the purposes of rout tests. If the Plague Priest is taken out of action before he has summoned the Plague Bearer both are counted as out of action.
The Plague Priest, who believes them to be the true teachings of Nurgle, uses these Gifts to covert the non-believer.

The True Path Evangelical oration converts the non-believer to the True Path This spell can only be cast successfully once per battle. Choose an enemy warrior within 8". The target is then under direct control of the priest. He now counts as a member of the Infect warband (can go over 18 members) as long as the priest is not stunned or out of action and stays within 8" of the target. If the target is a hero and is still being controlled at the end of the game, you may roll +1D6 for wyrdstones instead of your opponent. The character will then return to his warband. The warrior will not gain any experience for killing another warrior (while under control), if it is part of the scenario. Also if the target was the Leader of the opposing warband, and was still being controlled at the end of game, he would not get the experience for being the "Winning Leader" if his warband won the battle. |
Difficulty: 11

Plague of Flies When cast, a 4" radius of swarming flies, which get in the hair and mouth of attackers, surrounds the Plague Priest. All enemies must make a Toughness roll (under on 1D6) or they become stunned. This spell does not work against undead targets. |
Difficulty: 10
