Overview: Removal of incorrect reference to Foetid Bloat-Drones being corrupted Vulturax Stratos-automata as this is the description of the Blight Drone.
==Overview==
Believed to be a warped perversion of the ancient [[Vultarax Stratos-Automata]], these foul machines are created on Nurgle-dominated [[Daemon world]]s. Despite the costly blood sacrifices and extremely hazardous binding rituals used in their creation, Bloat-drones enjoy an enduring popularity with [[Chaos Lord|Chaos Lords]] of the [[Death Guard]] [[Traitor Legion]], deploying them in swarms that darken the skies. This is especially true among the forces of the [[5th Plague Company]], with warbands such as the [[Sons of the Maggot]], the [[Suppurant Sting]], and the [[Smogrot Brotherhood]] fielding great numbers of Foetid Bloat-drones in varying pack strengths and configurations.{{Fn|2}}
The [[Daemon]]s bound to Foetid Bloat-drones are more aggressive and spiteful than most Daemons of [[Nurgle]]. Some are even so wilful that they cannot be entrusted with ranged weaponry on account of their desire to smash themselves into the enemy ranks. These drones are instead fitted with the macabre devices known as '''Fleshmowers''', which tear apart enemies caught within them at close range. The mashed remains of fleshmower victims make excellent fuel for drones armed with '''Plaguespitters''' or '''Heavy Blight Launchers''', and so the two variants often form parasitic war packs.{{Fn|2}}
