Powers Of Nurgle
Noxious Cloud
Use this POWER OF CHAOS during a friendly NURGLE DAEMON operative’s activation. Until the end of the turn, whenever an operative is shooting a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative that is more than 3" from it, if that friendly operative is wholly within 3" of this operative, that friendly operative is obscured.
Curse of Rot
Use this POWER OF CHAOS during a friendly NURGLE DAEMON operative’s activation. Select one enemy operative within 8" and visible to this operative. Subtract 2" from the Move stat of that enemy operative and worsen the Hit stat of its weapons by 1 (this is not cumulative with being injured) until the end of the turning point.
Rancid Vomit
Use this POWER OF CHAOS when a friendly NURGLE DAEMON operative is performing the Shoot action. Until the end of that action, that operative can use the following ranged weapon:
| Name | ATK | HIT | DMG |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rancid Vomit | 5 | 2+ | 2/3 |
| Weapon Rules | |||
| Rng 6", Tor 1", Saturate |
Shambling Wretch
Use this POWER OF CHAOS at the start of a friendly NURGLE DAEMON operative's activation. You can ignore any changes to the stats of that operative from being injured (including their weapons' stats) until the end of that activation.
Revolting Resiliency
Use this POWER OF CHAOS when an attack dice inflicts damage on a friendly NURGLE DAEMON operative. Until the end of the activation/counteraction, for the purposes of the Disgustingly Resilient rule for that operative, always subtract 1 from the damage inflicted (to a minimum of 2) – you do not need to roll.

DaemonDisgustingly ResilientPowers of ChaosEquipment
Grisly Trophy
Once per Battle, when a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative incapacitates an enemy operative within 2" of it, you can use this rule. If you do, that friendly operative gains one of your Grisly Trophy tokens (if it does not already have one). Whenever a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative that has one of your Grisly Trophy tokens is visible to and within 2" of an enemy operative, subtract 1 from the ATK stat of that enemy operative's weapons.
Instrument of Chaos
Once per Turning point a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative can use this equipment. If it does, until the end of the Turning Point, each time a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative within 3" and visible to this operative fights in combat, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that combat, if it performed a Charge action during that activation, you can re-roll one of your attack dice.
Ritual Daggers
Operatives are equipped with the following melee weapon for the battle:
| Name | ATK | HIT | DMG |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ritual Dagger | 3 | 4+ | 3/4 |
| Special Rules | |||
| Balanced |
Daemonic Icon
Use this equipment when a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative is activated. Select one objective marker within 3" and visible to that operative. Until the end of the battle or until you use this equipment again (whichever comes first), when determining control of that objective marker, treat friendly operatives’ APL stat as 1 higher. Note this isn’t a change to the APL stat, so any changes are cumulative with this.
Ploys
Daemonsight
Strategy PloyWhenever you are selecting a valid target for a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative, enemy operatives within 6" cannot use Light terrain for cover. While this can allow such operatives to be targeted (assuming they are visible), it does not remove their cover save (if any).
Prey on the Weak
Strategy PloyUntil the end of the turning point, when a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative performs the Fight or Shoot action against a wounded target, that attack gains the Ceaseless weapon rule.
Reality Shift
Strategy PloyYou can immediately change the order of up to three friendly CHAOS DAEMON operatives that are not within control range of enemy operatives.
Symbol of Terror
Strategy PloyUntil the end of the Turning Point, when determining control of an objective marker that any friendly LEADER operatives are within range of, treat enemy operatives' total APL as being 1 less. Note that this is not a modifier.
Daemonic Mockery
Firefight PloyUse this firefight ploy when a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative is retaliating or an enemy operative is shooting it, after your opponent rolls their attack dice, but before re-rolls. Until the end of the sequence, your opponent cannot re-roll their attack dice (if your opponent declared the use of any firefight ploys during that sequence that would allow them to re-roll, that ploy is cancelled and the CP spent on it is refunded).
Ephemeral Regeneration
Firefight PloyUse this Firefight Ploy when a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative is activated. That friendly operative regains 2D3 lost wounds.
Time Surge
Firefight PloyUse this Firefight Ploy when a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative is selected as the target of a ranged attack. Until the end of the Turning Point, each time a shooting attack is made against that friendly operative, in the Roll Defence Dice step of that shooting attack, you can re-roll any or all of your defence dice.
Warp Walk
Firefight PloyUse this firefight ploy during a friendly CHAOS DAEMON operative's activation, when it performs an action in which it moves. Until the end of that activation, that operative can move through parts of terrain features as if they were not there, but must end those moves in a location it can be placed.
