And if u stand there and geht Roar't (no CP) and lose 10-11 of your PLaguebearer ?! No Auto BT. But okay was yust a idea.

Not sure what you mean by "Auto BT", do you mean Inspiring Presence to prevent models from running to battleshock? Roar only works in the combat phase, so all you lose out on is +1 hit (All-out Attack) or +1 save (All-out Defense). Thats it. +1 hit on a unit you generally dont rely on doing damage is whatever. +1 save on a unit that starts on a 6+ is whatever really.

okay. in my Players round u had to take Ghur if u want to use the Spell, the Tectonic rule (delete a MZ) But okay than it no matter.

In previous editions realms mattered, either for empowering endless spells or granting you different command abilities/spells etc. In AoS 3.0 with the current Generals Handbook, ALL battles are taking place in Ghur so it doesnt matter. Its just fluff if your army is from X realm now. 

[sal4m4nd3r]

Yeah hunters of the heartlands on plaguebearers is not really needed. Blightkings crave it, for aaa or aad depending on situation.

[Fellman]

Loss vs dragons whit my glottkin but a great fun game

[sal4m4nd3r]

Ended up going 3-1-1 coming in 9/50 something. Got absolutely BODIED by an big wagghh list on my last game. Took one of the best players in the country to a draw. So a good but also "meh" result. REALLY wanted that last game but played like garbage. I made horrible choices. Fatigue had definitely set in but that's what separates the goods from the greats in the tournament scene.

I can tell u guys i had 3 games in the last Week:

All with this List:

Allegiance: Maggotkin of Nurgle
- Subfaction: Drowned Men
- Mortal Realm: Ghur

Leaders
Bloab Rotspawned (300)*
- Lore of Malignance: Plague Squall
Lord of Afflictions (210)*
- General- Command Trait: Overpowering Stench  - Artefact: Arcane Tome (Universal Artefact) - Lore of Malignance: Gift of Disease
Plague Priest (85)*

4 x Pusgoyle Blightlords (440)*                       - Reinforced x 1
2 x Pusgoyle Blightlords (220)*                      
2 x Pusgoyle Blightlords (220)*
Units
10 x Plague Monks (85)*

Core Battalions
*Battle Regiment
Total: 2000 / 2000
Reinforced Units: 2 / 4
Wounds: 132
Drops: 1

-First Game Against a other Nurgle List PUR Daemons with GUO, Spoilpox, Tailer, 3x20 Plaguebearer and 3 Drohnes

The Game was, i started and rush into him and then grind him down, but it was very difficult and take to Turn 4 but then all what he got was his GUO and i lost 3 PusgBL and the LoAf. Hard game, the other Nurgle Player make 2 or 3 mistakes but it was okay, the dmg Output was substancel.

-Second Game Against Tzeenth: Kairos, Belakor, The Blues, Herold, 10 Akolyths, 20 PinkK and 10 Pink Horrors

i give him the first turn, he was way too far away for something hard to do, i failed most of my Charges in my first round and was stuckt in the 20 Pinks (with become more and more) but than i got the doppelturn from 1 to 2 and almost every PusgBL charged into Horrors, Akaolyths and destroyed in Turn  2 everything. His Counterattack with Belakor, Kairos and the LoC (summoing) was not as good as he want. So it was almost over in turn 2. (i had 10 VP and the Tzeenth Player 2 so)

- The Game 3 was again the LVO Winner Dragon List with 4 Fulminators (Damm Hit this guys) 4 SC Dragons, and the CitieBallista Boys (30 and 10 and so)

He win the First turn Roll and started. I take the LoAf and 4 PBL and 2 PBL in Deepstrike. He come in killed with the Fulminators (breath and Charge with AlloutAttack and Triumph), the Dragoons (breath) and Delorian (sure she is good to) the 4 PBL on the Point with my last roll and 1 Drohne in the Middel. In my first turn i want to kill the Dragoons. but again just Bloab and the LoAf. i killed 1,5 dargoons and lost just a few Wounds. In turn 2 he take first and killed the LoAf and Bloab with the Fulminators and 1 Drohne. But just in time again, no Overkill. i lost my rats against Shooting and in my turn 2 i charged the 2,5 Dragoons in the Middel with my remaining 6 PBl anf killed all, in the same way i blockt the Fulminators with 2 PBL. Then i got the dobbelturn and fly against his Shooting line, i killed in my back 2 Fulminators and lost 1 Fly, and 2 with Unleash Hell. We skip the game because i was with 10 to 12 at Victory Points behind and see no Chance to come back but it was very close. Maybe next time. i love the List very good.

ähm jes. The MassFlyingManArmada is very very good actually. And jes with so a List u really can bring down 1,5-2 Giants a Turn. No joke. so it is….

[Soggybread]

I went 3-2 at the Old Town Throwdown and finished 17/47.  There were some top tier SoCal players attending.  The list has a lot of board control and a lot of Meta armies can't hit hard enough to shift it off objectives.  The drones and LoA typically deep strike to keep people honest.  I summon in a bilepiper turn 2 for pile in shenanigans or hold off and bring in more Plaguebearers to capture objectives or feed to big monsters as a tar pit.

Loss vs Ogurs
miss payed glotkin and lost them turn 2 but a great game

[JCar09]

I have a doubt. At what point do the drowned men make the 8 move? before or after it is decided who goes first in the round.

Before it is decided who takes the turn. Its even more iffy because it happens at the same time as when you take control of objectives prior to turn 1 starting.

LVO has decided you get to pregame move and then claim control of objectives, AoS Worlds has decided you get to claim control of objectives, and then do the pregame move. 

[Ao_Death]

What are peoples feelings on one drop deployments for Maggotkin? I am debating between a Battle Regiment vs. Warlord & Hunters of the Heartland battalion for a 2k 1 day event in April. I feel like the tempo hit from going 2nd + possibly not being able to capitalize on a double going into turn 2 makes it a question... List is as follows:

Allegiance: Maggotkin of Nurgle
 - Subfaction: Blessed Sons
 - Grand Strategy: Hold the Line
 - Triumphs:

LEADERS
Great Unclean One (495)
- Plague Flail & Massive Bilesword
- Artefact: The Witherstave
- Lore of Virulence: Fleshy Abundance
Lord of Afflictions (210)
Gutrot Spume (170)

UNITS
10 x Putrid Blightkings (500) *
5 x Putrid Blightkings (250)
2 x Pusgoyle Blightlords (220)
10 x Plaguebearers (150)

TOTAL: 1995/2000 

The other outstanding question is who should be the general... Overpowering Stench + Splithorn Helm on the LoA is really strong. However, If I end up deploying everything in the sky/in ambush that would leave just the GUO and plague bearers to soak damage which makes Nurgling Infestation seem pretty important. 

Any feedback and thoughts would be appreciated!

* The unit of 10 PBK have been strangely strong for me? Coherency is a pain but they just don't die, especially if they are in hunters...

[Cthuleo]

Finally finished this one. I was never a fan of the goofy face on Mulch so I replaced it with a bit of conversion work and sculpting. Also thought it looked much more menacing with no eyes
