===Rot Cannon===

The Rot Cannon is a large weapon similar in size to a Battle Cannon used by Imperial main battle tanks. The Rot Cannon is carried into battle by [[Plague Hulk]] [[Daemon Engines]] used by the Forces of Chaos.

The weapon is an arcane device of unknown, although <s>possibly</s> obviously daemonic origin and is fused to the end of the creature's right arm. The Rot Cannon belches out shells that are so impregnated with dark ichor and infection that a mere scratch from the weapon's bone fragments will immediately and agonizingly fester into a crippling injury.

The Plague Hulk itself is a lumbering brute of rotting meat and metal, but its slow speed and large size means that it can't really afford to charge through an open battlefield even with its crazy Nurglite resilience. A battery of Basilisks Earthshaker Cannons can do a number on you, no matter how tough. Hence, the need for a Plague Hulk to have a range weapon such as the Rot Cannon is of much importance.

In 8th Edition, the Rot Cannon is largely unchanged but with new stats, 36" Heavy D6, S6 AP-3 D2 and all wound against Infantry are rerolled (cool).
