Contagions of Nurgle
If every unit from your army has the DEATH GUARD keyword (excluding UNALIGNED units), this unit gains the following ability:

Nurgle's Gift (Contagion): While an enemy unit is within Contagion Range of this unit (see below), subtract 1 from the Toughness characteristic of models in that unit.
Inexorable Advance
- This unit counts as having Remained Stationary if it did not Fall Back or Advance in your previous Movement phase.
- If this unit has the VEHICLE keyword, it does not suffer the penalty incurred to its hit rolls for firing Heavy weapons at enemy units that are within Engagement Range of it.
- If this unit has the INFANTRY keyword, it can ignore any or all modifiers to its Move characteristic, Advance rolls and charge rolls.

Abilities
Host of Plagues:

At the start of the first battle round, select one of the following Warlord Traits: Shamblerot, Ferric Blight, Gloaming Bloat, Eater Plague, Sanguous Flux, The Droning, Nurgle's Fruit. You cannot select a Warlord Trait that another model in your army already has. Until the end of the battle this model gains the selected Warlord Trait in addition to any others it has, even if it is not your WARLORD.

Primarch of the Death Guard:

In your Command phase, select one friendly DEATH GUARD CORE or DEATH GUARD CHARACTER unit within 6" of this model. Until the start of your next Command phase, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, you can re-roll the hit roll.

The Barbaran Plate:

Mortarion has a 4+ invulnerable save.

Daemon Primarch:

If your army is Battle-forged, this model must be your army's WARLORD. If more than one model in your army has a rule to this effect, then one of these models must be your WARLORD.

Lord of the Death Guard (Aura):

While a friendly DEATH GUARD CORE unit is within 6" of this model, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, re-roll a hit roll of 1.

Disgustingly Resilient:

Each time an attack is allocated to a model in this unit, subtract 1 from the Damage characteristic of that attack (to a minimum of 1).

Putrid Explosion (D3MW):

When this model is destroyed, roll one D6 before removing it from play. On a 4+ it explodes, and each unit (excluding NURGLE units) within 6" suffers D3 mortal wounds.

Toxic Presence:

This model counts the battle round number as being 4 for the purposes of determining the Contagion range of the Contagion abilities it has.
