Frowny Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Hey there. I have a mostly knights slaves to darkness that I was thinking of using to try me some nurgle. Of the allegiences it seems like it has a good mix of sturdy spells and hitting unlike the other marked groups. Especially the glotkin seems interesting since he gets 2 spells and has a very useful seeing command ability. Bit then I'd be tempted to get into infantry, since chaos warriors are just worse than basically everything else... I think there was a big analysis on page 40 or so that was very helpful I was therefore considrering either Marauders or plague monks. Any thoughts on which go better with a glottkin? The maurauders have terrible models which is a bit of a negative.... Maybe I would use the kairic acolyte models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cplhicks Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) A quick update on my doubles tournament I had 2 weeks ago. My partner and I managed to come in 4th which we felt was pretty good as we're not hardcore tournament players. My take away and fun moments: Wheel abuse is real and extremely good. Archie pretty much got turn 1 charge every game due to my cheeky Nurgle tree. Summoning 5-10 plaguebearers to grab or reinforce an objective is clutch. 30 Chaos Warriors tarpitted an opponent's Archie all game. Overall I had a great time and we raised $1400 in direct donations to Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto (the real winners of the tournament). 😊 Edited December 12, 2018 by cplhicks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit conflicted about a nurgle player raising money for sick kids though... Seems like a conflict of interests I had my first games the weekend before last and had a great time. I played Seraphon and Nighthaunt at the 1250pt level with a lot of proxies for models I haven't built or painted yet so the table looked pretty silly but I still had a blast. My biggest surprise was Horticulous who I only took for the extra tree and to activate Locus abilities (I had a Daemon heavy list), but ended up being an all around star during both games. He's surprisingly tanky with that 3+ save, Disgustingly Resilient and healing himself 1 a turn with his "In Death there is Life" ability. I also loved the flexibility of tanking a single enemy unit/hero or running away when surrounded to get in some cheeky mortal wounds to multiple units. Not sure if he would suffers in bigger games, but at the level we were playing he was a real MVP. Such an amazing model too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cplhicks Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 If it makes you feel better I named my army sick list for sick kids lol😄 Nurgle is also known for new life and it was our hope to give these kids a chance to get their lives back. So all very thematic if you ask me lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PUFNSTUF Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Has anyone tried out the beasts of chaos battalion in Nurgle yet? If so how did it go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadmund Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) Hey could someone clarify for me: Do Feculent Gnarlmaws activate the Sickness Blossoms ability of their warscrolls in both players' hero phase, or just friendly hero phases? The wording says "At the start of the Hero Phase", so I would interpret that as being in both hero phases, with the player whose turn it is deciding the order of abilities that activate at the start of the turn. When I showed the wording to a more experienced player though, he said it was only in my turn and that it would be a bit too powerful if it was both.

I am thinking of 20-30 bestigors as a core, with +6 movement from GUO and Shaman and charge after run, it is stupidly fast. Also you can cast putrification blades on them and annigilate 10+ man squads. Centigors seem like a good option too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frowny Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 7x tusgor chariots also seem very strong, just to charge in an explode. Similarly centigores go great with blades of putrefaction and aren't bad on their own either Some questions for you all: I'm looking to get a single big mob of something to go with a glottkin. Choices are maurauders (terrible models) or plague monks. Any thoughts on which is better with it? Plague monks seem like they do substantially more damage and despite the lack of save, really aren't that much less sturdy. Also way better models, although not battleline....

Dreadmund Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) I'm taking my growing army back home for Christmas this weekend. I have three games lined up against Nighthaunt, Stormcast and another Stormcast. I don't have enough models to make up a 2k list yet, so we're playing at the 1k level. I'd welcome any feedback on the list below! Leaders: General: Poxbringer (Lore: Favored Poxes, Command Trait: Grandfather's Blessing) Lord of Plagues (Artefact: Ghyrstrike) Horticulus Slimux Battleline: 30 x Plaguebearers 5 x Putrid Blightkings Total: 960pts The plan is to plant Horticulus' extra tree in the first hero phase, and if I have 7 contagion points by the movement phase which is likely, I'll summon a third. That will give me some board control and/or lots of summoning points in the remaining rounds. The lord of Plagues has an artefact in case he has to claim an objective that can only be claimed by a wizard or a hero with an artefact. Otherwise I would give the Poxbringer the Witherstave. I swamp an objective with plaguebearers supported by the poxbringer, and have the blightkings running around with the lord of plagues and horticulous. With all those trees, and if I get into enemy territory I should be able to use summoning to reinforce fairly quickly with whatever the situation calls for.

Forrix Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Anyone every try running Pusgoyle Blightlords with the Harbinger of Decay for a 4+/5++/5+++? Save after the save abilities still stack right? I know they changed it in 40k but I haven't found anything against it in AoS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldshrimpeyes Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 How do you Maggots find vanguard games? I tend to play a lot of 1000pt level games at the moment. This isn't really out of choice, I'm stuck with a 4x4 table at home for the time being. I'm finding it very hard to be effective at 1000pts and I'm struggling to put my finger on why. I'm playing against Legions of Nagash almost exclusively. I don't feel there is enough in the tool box at 1000pts to put up any real resistance against them. I can't set up a big enough anvil to weather the 40 skeleton assault without compromising every other element of the list. If I do dish out enough damage to kill something I'm too slow to pressure grave sites and find myself back to square one. Anyone have any advice or experience for things to consider at the 1k level? I can't seem to find the balance to mitigate our slow movement and low damage output. Or is Nurgle at 1k just a very tough ask? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollcage Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I cannot find where clan pestilens are an ally of Nurgle. The errata for 2018 GHB doesn't have Clan Pestilens listed as an ally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordRogalDorn Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 That is because they have the NURGLE keyword, and are thus part of the Allegiance and not allies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
