Cultist of Nurgle is a 
Nurgle Hero unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer III.
Recruitment[]
Unlocked with: Spiked Palisade, Festering Pit, Cultist Camp (Gold) or Cultist Camp (Gems)
Description[]
The fell Gods of Chaos ask for total and complete devotion from their mortal followers, and they grow strong upon the conflict and slaughter they unleash. In exchange, the Ruinous Powers offer their dark blessings – gifts that make the faithful mighty indeed. The Mark of Nurgle manifests itself in a variety of disgusting afflictions. A cloud of flies accompanies its bearers, making them difficult to target.

Strategy[]
Having the lowest melee defense compare to other Nurgle heroes and 3rd lowest compare to other Cultists, use this unit with care, going for infantry along with your frontline instead of dueling against Lords while summoning extra units on the battlefield to back your army up. The Chaos Warshrine will allow this Hero to bring slightly more healing to the battlefield, despite being slow with it, most Nurgle units aren't known to be smart, making blobbing up with Cultist of Nurgle worth considering.
