  WARHAMMER 40,000 – CODEX: DEATH GUARD
  WARHAMMER 40,000 
  CODEX: DEATH GUARD
  Official Update Version 1.4
  Although we strive to ensure that our rules are perfect, 
  sometimes mistakes do creep in, or the intent of a rule 
  isn’t as clear as it might be. These documents collect 
  amendments to the rules and present our responses to 
  players’ frequently asked questions. As they’re updated 
  regularly, each has a version number; when changes 
  are made, the version number will be updated, and any 
  changes from the previous version will be highlighted 
  in magenta. Where a version number has a letter, 
  e.g. 1.1a, this means it has had a local update, only in 
  that language, to clarify a translation issue or other 
  minor correction.

  FAQs
  Q: For the purposes of the Psychic Focus matched play rule, 
  is the Miasma of Pestilence psychic power from Codex: 
  Chaos Space Marines the same psychic power as in Codex: 
  Death Guard?
  A: Yes. More generally, if psychic powers have the same 
  name, they are the same psychic power for the purposes 
  of Psychic Focus.
  Q: If my army is led by a Chaos Space Marines Warlord, and 
  I have a Detachment of Death Guard, can I use the Gifts of 
  Decay Death Guard Stratagem to include a Relic on a Death 
  Guard Character?
  A: Yes. The only requirement to have access to 
  Stratagems is that you have a Detachment of the 
  appropriate Faction. If you have a Death Guard 
  Detachment, you have access to their Stratagems. 
  Q: Can Poxwalkers use the Curse of the Walking Pox ability to 
  increase the unit above its starting strength? 
  A: Yes.
  Q: If the Poxwalkers’ Curse of the Walking Pox ability increases 
  the unit above its starting strength in a matched play game, 
  does this cost reinforcement points?
  A: Yes, you must pay reinforcement points for each 
  Poxwalker model that you add to the unit that would 
  increase the unit above its starting strength.
  Q: When adding models to a unit of Poxwalkers as a result of 
  the Curse of the Walking Pox ability, can those new models fight 
  in the same Fight phase?
  A: Yes, but only if their unit has not yet been chosen to 
  Fight this phase.
  Q: If I cast Blades of Putrefaction on a model equipped with 
  the Plaguebringer relic, how many mortal wounds can that 
  model inflict with Plaguebringer and what do I need to roll to 
  inflict them?
  A: In this situation, in addition to the normal damage, 
  on a wound roll of 5, Plaguebringer would inflict 1 
  mortal wound, and on a wound roll of 6, Plaguebringer 
  would inflict 2 mortal wounds.
  Q: Are the Biologus Putrifier’s hyper blight grenades affected by 
  his Blight Racks ability?
  A: No.

  WARHAMMER 40,000 – CODEX: DEATH GUARD
  Q: If Mortarion attacks an Imperium unit with Silence (using 
  the eviscerating blow profile), and the hit roll is a 6 (allowing 
  him to make an extra attack with Silence due to the Death to the 
  False Emperor ability), does the extra attack have to be made 
  using the same profile, or can it be made with the weapon’s other 
  profile (reaping scythe) instead?
  A: The extra attack can be made using either profile.
  Q: If Mortarion gets to make an extra attack with Silence due 
  to the Death to the False Emperor ability and I choose to make it 
  with the reaping scythe profile, do I roll 1 hit roll or 3?
  A: 3.
  Q: If the Cloud of Flies Stratagem is used on a Death Guard 
  Character, does its effect – preventing enemy models shooting 
  it unless it’s the closest visible target – take precedence over the 
  ability that, for example, sniper rifles have, that enables them to 
  target a Character even if they are not the closest enemy unit? 
  A: Such weapons cannot target the character that is 
  under the effects of Cloud of Flies (unless the character 
  is the closest visible target).
  Q: If a unit such a Mortarion is benefitting from both the 
  Blades of Putrefaction psychic power (from Codex: Death 
  Guard) and the Virulent Blessing psychic power (from Codex: 
  Chaos Daemons) and a wound roll of 7+ is rolled, how many 
  mortal wounds are inflicted in addition to the normal damage 
  (i.e. is it 1, or is that also doubled)?
  A: Only 1 mortal wound is inflicted in addition to the 
  normal (doubled) damage.
