Changes

Forever fused with their Blightlord Terminators are relentless and unstoppable, elite Death Guard warriors bound forever to mutated suits of [[Terminator Armour_#Cataphractii ArmourPattern|Cataphractii armour]]. They stalk forward with guns blazing, Blightlord Terminators combine diseased resilience with mercilessly mowing down rank after rank of the protection enemy. [[Combi-weapon|Combi-weapons]], [[Plague Spewer|Plague Spewers]] and firepower of a standard [[TerminatorBlight Launcher|Blight Launchers]]add to the fusillade, reducing infantry and vehicles to slop. At the last, the Terminators break into a lumbering charge, hefting huge weapons with which to hack and bludgeon the enemy. Flails of corruption entangle weapons and limbs in sizzling, corrosive barbs. Bubotic axes and baleswords tear ragged wounds into which a thousand poxes seep. In battleBy the time the Blightlord Terminators stomp on in search of new victims, they serve as nothing remains of their enemies but maggot-riddled corpses. Combining the shock troops protective powers of Cataphractii war plate with the diseased resilience bestowed by Nurgle's gifts, Blightlord Terminators are terrifyingly hard to kill. They take great pride in this fact, advancing contemptuously into the teeth of the fiercest firestorms, mocking their enemies' attempts to lay them low. This arrogance grates upon their Death Guard brothers, but the Blightlords make such exceptional shock troops that it is overlooked - or even condoned - by their masters. Most vectoriums include at least one band of Blightlord Terminators for breach assaults, boarding actions and sudden teleport strikes, and are present in most warbands it is a rare ship of the Plague Fleets that takes to the tides of the [[Traitor Legion]]warp without a complement of Blightlords aboard. {{Fn|1a}} Due to the amount of time they spend embarked upon diseased warships, Blightlord Terminators are saturated with empyric entropy. This foulness pours off them in waves, rotting flesh and corroding metal in an area around them. Where the Blightlords tread, crawling veins of corruption radiate outwards like spiderwebs of rot and rust. An enemy needs only to be gripped by them in order for these energies to start agonisingly eating them away, while vehicles and fortifications exposed to the Blightlords' malignant presence soon slump and crumble.{{Fn|1a}}
