Recruitment[ | ]

Description[ | ]

Plague Ogres have devolved in both mind, body and soul, their forms twisting and contorting into hellish shapes through the horrific blessings of Nurgle's Rot. When the Red Fist Tribe were defeated by Tamurkhan's horde, a great many Ogres submitted to his will and joined the monstrous host, from which point on they were lost to Chaos forever. Taking control of their Ogre Tyrant's body, Tamurkhan led them through foul rituals and the consumption of Chaos-tainted flesh, which sealed their fate. Soon, all manner of plagues and diseases were visited upon their desecrated bodies, their suffering only alleviated when they embraced Grandfather Nurgle fully. In battle, they slake their hunger and smash the foe in praise of the Lord of Decay – those that survived the Nurglish corruption, although many are barely recognisable as the Ogres they once were.

  • Poison Attacks: The Modifier icon poisonpoisonous attacks of this unit weaken the target's speed and damage and/or apply the Poison! debuff.
