{"product_id":"warhammer-40-000-codex-death-guard-2025","title":"Warhammer 40,000: Codex: Death Guard (2025)","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Plague God's Chosen — In Full Rotting Detail\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFew armies in Warhammer 40,000 carry the same grim weight as the Death Guard. Once the Emperor's most resilient Space Marines, now eternal servants of Nurgle, they drag plague, decay, and inevitability across every warzone they touch. This 2025 Codex is their complete field guide — equal parts lore compendium and army rulebook, covering everything from the festering history of the XIV Legion to the ruinous campaigns they wage across the 41st Millennium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Death Guard Codex opens with extensive background material covering the Legion's origins, their fall to Chaos during the Horus Heresy, and their current activities spreading Nurgle's gifts across the galaxy. The lore sections are written with the same revolting enthusiasm that makes the Death Guard one of the hobby's most beloved factions — this is not dry text, it is world-building you will read cover to cover. Beyond the background, the book delivers the complete army rules for fielding Death Guard in Warhammer 40,000 — datasheets for every unit in the range, army special rules, Stratagems, and the Detachment options that define how your plague marines hit the table. A painting showcase highlights finished models from Games Workshop's studio collection, providing direct inspiration for your own corrupted colour schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho Needs This Book\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAny Death Guard player building or expanding a collection in the current edition needs this Codex. It is the authoritative rules source for the faction — replacing any previous edition supplement for competitive and matched play. Lore readers and hobbyists who collect Death Guard purely as a painting project will find the background sections deeply rewarding, with detailed faction history that contextualises the range's visual design. New players drawn to the Death Guard aesthetic should pair this with a starter set or Combat Patrol box to hit the ground running with both models and rules in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGames Workshop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGame System\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarhammer 40,000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBook Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCodex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFaction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeath Guard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2025\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardcover\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLanguage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Games Workshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44261835636824,"sku":"43-03","price":66.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4980\/8728\/files\/s-l1600_7b696b23-29d3-4835-aa6d-71b37e2a654e.jpg?v=1781920939","url":"https:\/\/borealgaming.com\/products\/warhammer-40-000-codex-death-guard-2025","provider":"Boreal Gaming \u0026 Cards","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
