Hi all.

I’m in need of your opinions.
I just had my Elite rulebook and as a Nurgle lover I immediately jumped on the Nurglynators rules.


Am I right reading that with RAPID FIRE weapons they not only double their shots but also considering targets at 18” (way more than the standard 12”)?

So.. normally we could fire, let’s say a combi-plasma, once over 12”.
Now we could fire it twice at 18” just as it would shoot at 12”. Right?

Ok.. then, if we normally shoot twice at max 12” but now we can do it even when under 18”, we do now shoot 4x under 12”??

Maybe I’m just dreaming..

I’m asking this only because I bought the Italian version of the manual. The original Eng was unavailable..
Can’t tell you how frustrating the translation is sometimes..

Thank you in anticipation.

I don't follow (but then I don't have the italian version).

the Blightlord rules in the english .pdf has no rule relating to shooting.

In English it says that you double your shots at 18" instead of at 12".

So yes to two shots at <18", no to four shots at <12".

He's talking about inexorable advance which is the death guard faction rule.

Ok, thanks. Fair enough.
Deep strike in safe safe position, than move and shoot 2 plasma from distance..

outflank & the individual faction deep strike tactics are used at the end of the movement phase, so you can't teleport & move in a single turn.
