Plague Marines



Plague marines are in my opinion the best unit Chaos has. They have the exact same stats as a space marine only with a huge difference. A toughness of 5. This makes a big difference in the game. When rolling to wound against a bolter your enemy has to roll 5+ and when hit with a basic weapon like a lasgun or a splinter rifle it's 6+! Plus an armour save. Plus they also are fearless. That is really effective for throwing a large squad of plague marines upfront to soak up enemy fire while they deal rapid fire punishment.They are also great and holding a bunker or key objective in a game. They can count as troops if your chaos lord has a mark of nurgle.That makes them by far the best troops choice in a game. Another cool aspect is that plague marines look really cool especially when painted well (like mine which I will post pictures of very soon).
