Detachment Rule
Melancholic Miasma
To fight the daemons of Nurgle is to endure their entropic assaults upon both the physical and spiritual battlefields. The horror of inevitable decay claws at the souls of their victims even as the daemons’ splintered talons rake their flesh, heralding nightmarish putrefaction and impending doom.
While an enemy unit is within 9" of one or more Legiones Daemonica Nurgle units from your army, that enemy unit is within your army’s Shadow of Chaos. In each player’s Command phase, select one enemy unit within your army’s Shadow of Chaos. That unit must take a Battle-shock test.
