Basic Info
Evidence suggests the Dark Tusks are followers of Nurgle, but they were encountered, by Damocles Squad of the Iron Snakes, fighting alongside a Tzeentchian cult on Rosetta. They wore corroded, rotten black armour and smelled diseased. They also carried an array of daemon weapons and "Plague Weapons". Unlike the majority of Dark Tusks, the leader wore "shiny black" armour with chains looped about him.[1]
The Dark Tusks are described as bestial, and acting like animals when cornered by the Iron Snakes.[1]
