Simple question:

Can my death guard daemon prince have a warp bolter?

If so, would it cost 9 points as in the index?

It's an option for daemon princes in the index, but not in the death guard codex.

This is a tricky one.

The Daemon Prince of Nurgle datasheet is found only in the Death Guard codex. It can't take a warp bolter.

The index datasheet 'Daemon Prince' can take a warp bolter, and has permission to take the Death Guard legion.. so we can use that.. noting it doesn't have disgustingly resilient or contagion powers.

BUT this datasheet also appears In the Chaos Space Marine codex, so we must use that version of the datasheet. But now, we can't give it the Death Guard keyword, so that doesn't help us.

So basically no, no warp bolter.

So, if I had a daemon prince of nurgle model with a warp bolter, it would have to be a daemon prince from the CSM codex with the adeptus hereticus powers and any legion except Deathguard or Thousand Sons, right?
