The Tally of Pestilence
Whilst Epidemius is on the table, keep a count of all models killed by followers of Nurgle (i.e. any Daemon of Nurgle or model with the Mark of Nurgle, both friends and enemies) anywhere on the table. At the start of each of your turns, consult the table below to determine the effect of the Tally of Pestilence. From the beginning of that turn, and as long as Epidemius is on the table, these cumulative bonuses affect all followers of Nurgle (friend and foe).

|Casualties|Effect|
|:----:|:----:|
|1-4|None|
|5-9|All Plagueswords now wound on 3+|
|10-14|All followers of Nurgle have Noxious Touch|
|15-19|If a follower of Nurgle has Feel no Pain, it now saves on 3+|
|20+|All attacks from followers of Nurgle ignore armour saves|
Daemon
All Daemons have the Fearless and Eternal Warriors special rules.
Slow and Purposeful
Models with this ability always move as if they were moving through difficult terrain (typically rolling two dice and choosing the best as their movement rate). In addition to this, they are always treated as stationary when shooting, and never receive a bonus attack when charging into close combat.
Eternal Warrior
A model with the Eternal Warrior special rule is immune to Instant Death.
Invulnerable Save (5+)
This model has an Invulnerable Save of 5+.
Fearless
Fearless troops never have to fall back and are assumed to automatically pass any morale test they are required to take. They can never be pinned. This special rule is gained by any independent character joining a Fearless unit. Also, as long as a Fearless character stays inside a non-Fearless unit, he loses this special rule.
Feel No Pain
Some warriors are so blood-frenzied that they can ignore injuries that would incapacitate even a battle-hardened Space Marine. If a model with this ability loses a wound, roll a dice. On a 1, 2 or 3, take the wound as normal, removing the model if it loses its final wound. On a 4, 5 or 6, the injury is ignored and the model continues fighting. This ability cannot be used against weapons that inflict Instant Death (those with a Strength double or more the model's Toughness) or against close combat weapons that allow no Armour Save (such as power fists, power swords, Dreadnought close combat weapons, rending attacks that roll a 6 to hit, etc).
