One of the command traits can give +1 to the Disgustingly resistant save. So 4+ on Mort might be a little tough to crack.

The auto exploding vehicle one is amazing. Ram a dying landraider into the enemy lines and KABOOM, D6 mortal wounds for everyone within D6.

Maybe they're referring to units not currently in the Death Guard list in the Index? So that could be stuff like vindicators, or maybe some of the daemons.

In the full context of the sentence, I read it as 15 units not in the CSM Codex.

Likely spot on, there’s a LOT of new stuff but I’m sure there will be some recycled portions as well to add back in units that were missing from the Death Guard list in the index. Mainly Havocs, bikers, spawn, raptors, lord options (bike/jump pack, etc.), terminators, the list literally goes on and on.
Known new models/variants are…
1. Mortarion 2. Marine tallyman 3. Terminators (maybe even two different kinds!) 4. New armament on the plague drones which could “change them into a different unit, like scout sentinels vs. armored sentinels 5. New HQ’s / Single models like the Noxious Blightbringer

Guaranteed new Typhus, the above list was for units not in the index and/or “brand new units”. I’m excited to see what happens with the terminators. It’d be really sweet to have 3 codex entries for terminator units. Obviously a wish list, but there’s some really cool flavor units of terminators that could be brought forward 10,000 years.
1. 40k Deathshroud! – aka Nurgle’s version of assault terminators with some new rules for those sick flamers they rocked back in the Heresy era – Elites slot along with “vanilla” below. 2. 40k Grave Wardens – Cool AF and occupied a heavy slot in 30k, these could be a really cool option if their grenade launcher things were updated, especially if Phosphex Bombs make the leap from 30k to 40k. 3. “Vanilla” Death Guard Termies – still badass in their own right but with the more standard weapon options we’ve come to know from terminators and still occupying the elites slot.

Plus some tanks will be getting Disgustingly Resilient! Looks like the flavor/fluff of the Death Guard will be maintained.
