Tamurkhan’s lieutenant
Kayzk is a Kurgan champion who gave himself to Nurgle and became one of Tamurkhan's earliest followers. In Immortal Empires, his place is alongside the Maggot Host's chieftains and expanding army.
He supports a lord's campaign as a Legendary Hero. Plan his role around the army he joins: a slow infantry force benefits from a mounted fighter who can respond to an engagement developing away from the centre.
Support the charge
Kayzk rides a Rot Beast and regenerates in combat. Befouled Charge supports nearby charging allies, while the Sword of Filth weakens enemies he strikes. His role combines staying power with help for a concentrated mounted attack.
Pin an enemy with Plaguebearers before committing the mounted group from a useful angle. Keep a route back to the army if fresh opponents arrive. Durability helps him remain in the fight, but it does not give the infantry his mobility.
