Icon Bearer

Icon Bearer is a Characters unit in the Death Guard faction for Warhammer 40k.

Points: 45.

The icons borne by the Death Guard are rusted and corrupted dedications to Nurgle, forged into the shapes of the Grandfather’s symbols or those of the Legion itself. So wreathed in disease are these banners that nearby enemies are rapidly afflicted, dying agonising deaths as their convulsing bodies are reduced to slop.

Standard kit: This model is equipped with: boltgun; plague knife.
