SPIKE! 3 Questions

Love the SPIKES. Have a few questions on the most current.

1) Are Plague Doctors and Cavorting Nurglings 0-1?

2) Why are Plague Doctors allowed as inducements for the Chaos Renegades? In what situation would you take it over the Wandering Apothecaries?

3) Is it mentioned in the mag that Nurgle teams can't hire apothecaries? I can't seem to locate it. I know it is in the BBA, but I feel like this is an oversight unless I am missing something.

Thanks!

You can use plague doctors to reroll your troll's regenerate. In addition, there is nothing in the text that prevent the plague doctor to be used on star players like Crazy Igor and Gobbler Grimlich.

I do not think the rule say anything about not being able to take wandering apothecaries while you have a plague doctor so it is an extra save for any player with regeneration.

I guess you really have to love your troll.

P.38 of Death Zone 2 says "Nurgle teams cannot hire Apothecaries... for obvious reasons".

It is also in BBA. From my understanding, the Spike! mags are meant to cover each team comprehensively. Missing this detail is pretty important and I was wondering if I overlooked it in the Spike 3. So looking for a page number in Spike.

RAW, I think Apoes cannot be used on Star Players, but that seems to not apply to the Plague Doctor? This might be a reason to take it.

If you have questions, submit them to the Blood Bowl Facebook page. I'm not actually even able to give answers elsewhere. Submit them there and I can give answers through an official source.
Thank you.

Hello.
I have a question about the Pestigor star "Bulla Shardhorn."
Can he also play for Chaos Renegade teams as indicated in the Spike P24, or only for Nurgle teams (p5)?

One assumes he, like me, doesnt have stalkerbook, so may be asking for someone to ask on his behalf?
