Its ranks are infested with hundreds of different strains of the Zombie Plague, including Shamblerot, the Groaning and Biter's Pox.2nd Plague Company, "The Ferric Blight" - The 2nd Plague Company favours mechanised assaults, and boasts huge formations of lumbering battle tanks. Its warriors bear the Ferric Blight, which speckles their armour and vehicles with crawling rust that can swiftly infest the foe.3rd Plague Company, "Mortarion's Anvil" - The warriors of the 3rd Plague Company excel at digging in and letting their foes dash themselves apart against their defences. They carry the Gloaming Bloat, a plague of fever sweats that slicks their armour and causes them to speak in wet gurgles. The 3rd Plague Company is also known for having Noxious Blightbringers prevalent amongst their ranks. Its commanding Death Guard Lord Gothax the Morose is renowned for ensuring that seven Blightbringers accompany him as a trudging retinue at all times. In the gruelling sieges and meat grinders favoured by the 3rd Plague Company, the entropic shock waves of their tocsins of misery are invaluable.4th Plague Company - The 4th Plague Company is ruled over by the gestalt Daemon known as the Eater of Lives. Its Legionaries carry the Eater Plague, also called Drizzleflesh, Pockchewer and the Endless Gift, and its inhuman master favours Death Guard Sorcerers and summonings of other Nurglite daemons.5th Plague Company, "The Poxmongers" - The 5th Plague Company makes great use of diseased Daemon Engines. Its forces carry the Sanguous Flux, which causes endless, half-clotted bleeding and leaves foul red-black trails behind them wherever they go.6th Plague Company, "Ferrymen" or "Brethren of the Fly" - The 6th Plague Company garrisons the Plague Fleets, and acquires new starships for their armadas. It boasts large numbers of Blightlord Terminators riddled with the parasite known as the Droning.7th Plague Company, "Mortarion's Chosen Sons" - Those of the 7th Plague Company have the honour of being Mortarion's Chosen Sons. They are plague brewers and dark alchemists, and are blessed by Nurgle with the Crawling Pustulance, also known as Boilblight, Lumpen Splatter or Nurgle's Fruit.
