Hi,

I was wondering if you guys know if I can play Nurgle Daemons and other Nurgle units with Death Guard. Especially in the up and coming codex?

The only proviso for a a battleforged list is all models share at least one keyword (in this case, "Chaos" and/or "Nurgle").

No word on if there will be additional restrictions in the upcoming DG codex.

You may want to create demon-specific detachments though. Demons lack the <Legion> keywords, and regular Chaos Marines detachments only gain Legion Traits "so long as every unit in that Detachment is from the same Legion."

It's possible the Death Guard codex will change this, but I wouldn't count on it.

Fortunately, Plaguebearers and Nurglings are really cheap Troops, so it's easy to make Battalion Detatchments composed mainly of them, giving you extra command points for not much cost.
