I don't have the Realm of Chaos books, I played Orks back in the day in 40K and Fantasy.  The fluff remains, Plaguebearers are known as Nurgle's Tallymen.  Epidemius or whatever seems to have co-opted that nickname though.  I'm kinda anti-special characters.  I couldn't tell you the last time I fielded one, 2nd Edition 40K maybe...

Anyway if you didn't see I finished of the Beasts of Nurgle's bases and I'm all set for tomorrow, now I need sleep!

Nice way of visually representing the mathematical side of Plaguebearers, that kind of thing would never have occurred to me.

It all goes back to Warhammer 40,000 second edition when I Mathematically proved a plaguebearer was better than a genestealer, with or without the charge bonus.  The fact that it is fluffy only made my naming of my Plaguebearers the Netherworldly Mathematicians all the better and somewhere along the way I learned the mostly useless but mathematically amusing formula and a banner was born...

We'll see how they do in the game now-a-days in about an hour or so...
