Codex: Death Guard

About:

The Death Guard, lead by their Primarch Mortarion, fell to Chaos during the events of the Horus Heresy.  Blessed by Nurgle while trapped in the warp, the once proud Legion fell to decay and bloat.  Astartes became vile rot filled soldiers of the Chaos Gods.  Residing within the Eye of Terror, The Plague Planet is where they launch attacks against sectors all across the stars.  The Plague Marines will not stop in their goal to spread disease throughout the entire universe and destroy the Imperium of Man once and for all!
