  1. I know it was discussed before but I couldn't find the answer using the search tab; Can marauders take both icon and banner? Also is axe and shield the best weapon option?
  2. This is pretty much exactly how I plan to do things. I already have nurgle so I will be running generic chaos for the first good while. And like that plan on building and painting these guys to the best of my abilities. Paint scheme wise I plan on going very simular to the cover of the FW pdf. The armour will be red (almost black) with blue where I can fit it in. Skin wise I'm planning on an ashen grey colour. Really excited to start painting these
  3. Good morning folks. I am looking at starting a chaos dwarf (Legion of Azgorh) now normally I don't mind buying a big old heap of models, painting them up and having fun with lists etc. However there is a bit of a hefty price tag that comes with these boys. So I have a few questions. 1) these guys look like they could be fairly competetive. Has anyone had good success with them in tournaments? 2) do they play well with others? Any other chaos units/Charachters that run particularly well with them? 3) are the battalions a worth while investment points wise? They seem a bit meh on paper and was thinking having minimal drops and going first, is that really for these guys? Finally any help on a list would be great. I'm thinking of getting the set on forge world for the core of the army as I need battleline units anyways right? Is it worth while getting a command group for every unit? I will slowly expand from there but would definately have an end goal (list) to work to as like I said earlier the price tag is fairly hefty on this army. Ps don't tell my wife how much they cost. EVER 🤣 Thanks in adavnce
  4. Can you elaborate? I've always thought he looks very underwhelming
  5. Been really busting my brains over lists with the glottkin in them. I feel with the lack of movement bonuses that a GUO with bell provide the need for a battalion is lessened. As going first is less of a priority. So my list I'm going to play test for a few games is; Allegiance: NurgleMortal Realm: GhyranLeadersThe Glottkin (420)- Lore of Malignance: Blades of PutrefactionGutrot Spume (140)Harbinger of Decay (160)- General- Trait: Virulent Contagion - Artefact: The Witherstave Poxbringer Herald of Nurgle (120)- Lore of Virulence: Favoured PoxesBattleline30 x Plaguebearers (320)10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)Units3 x Plague Drones (200)Total: 2000 / 2000Extra Command Points: 0Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 162 So this list is pretty basic, and is designed aroumd reacting to my opponent instead of my more proactive GUO with bell list. Idea is that I use the Glottkin to boost the drones attacks and combine with the faster harbinger for lots of hits or keep the harbinger back and use him to buff the bulk of the army and save command points for later turns. Meanwhile the poxbringer can get in position to support the drones turn 2. Even the plague bearers can be rushed forward with the glotts support and tie up the enemy. Hopefully quite a versatile list. Will be testing it this weekend and will hopefully have a bit of fun
  6. @sal4m4nd3r do you think it would be worth running the GuO and glottkin in the same list? This is what I was thinking of running; Allegiance: NurgleLeadersThe Glottkin (420)- Lore of Malignance: Blades of PutrefactionGreat Unclean One (340)- Bile Blade & Doomsday Bell- Artefact: The Witherstave - Lore of Virulence: Favoured PoxesGutrot Spume (140)Battleline30 x Plaguebearers (320)10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)Units3 x Plague Drones (200)Total: 1900 / 2000Extra Command Points: 2Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 146 I'm thinking of running this on Sunday (friendly game to try out) I'm also considering dropping gutrot to take an additional unit of 5 blight kings as there are many models on the board as is.
  7. https://www.tga.community/forums/topic/18230-aos-2-maggotkin-of-nurgle-discussion/?do=findComment&comment=313280 If you check out @sal4m4nd3r list it will give you a good basis to go off
  8. Made a start on the glottkin. Great fun playing with glazes to add warm and cold tones to the plaid flesh look I have gone for. Can't wait to start picking out details
  9. @sal4m4nd3r So I would love to to run the blight cyst but I keep end up with this list, because of my model pool. I think I could drop a unit of kings and take some plague drones. But this is what it looks like so far. Allegiance: NurgleMortal Realm: GhyranLeadersThe Glottkin (420)Festus the Leechlord (140)Lord of Blights (140)Battleline30 x Plaguebearers (320)10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)BattalionsBlight Cyst (220)Total: 1880 / 2000Extra Command Points: 3Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 141 I've come up with a more optimal list but using the plague cyst. It's a battalion I find myself trying to stay within the 7" bubble unnecessarily but that's something I can work on I guess Allegiance: NurgleMortal Realm: GhyranLeadersThe Glottkin (420)Festus the Leechlord (140)Lord of Plagues (140)Gutrot Spume (140)Battleline30 x Plaguebearers (320)10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)BattalionsPlague Cyst (200)Total: 2000 / 2000Extra Command Points: 1Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 148 Any comments on eithernof both ideas would be great. But I am think I may have to night the bullet and convert up some maraurders 🤔What weapons do you find are best to run them?
  10. I love your take on the Glottkin. Reminds me of a charachter from fallout 2 🤣
  11. I really dislike the the current chaos marauders so for me those are out of the question (untill they are rereleased) But I will definately have a think about the lists. Would you mind if I get back to you with further suggestions?
  12. @sal4m4nd3r This was the list I was thinking of. Although to be there dosnt seem to be anywhere near enough bodies for me. Allegiance: NurgleMortal Realm: GhyranLeadersThe Glottkin (420)- Lore of Malignance: Blades of PutrefactionLord of Blights (140)- Artefact: Ghyrstrike Harbinger of Decay (160)- General- Trait: Grandfather's Blessing - Artefact: The Witherstave Battleline10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)30 x Plaguebearers (320)BattalionsBlight Cyst (220)Total: 1900 / 2000Extra Command Points: 3Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 142
  13. Thanks very much, I didn't realise the virulence rule meant it was written that way. Also I've never considered flanking my unit of 10 Blight kings (I've only a couple of games under my belt) as I don't get to play very often. Hence wanting to go to a tournament to get some more experience/games The capturing of objectives quote is what we have been playing, I've just not played any battle plans with alternate rules yet so I will definately look at reading these just to get my head around them. But thank you for the advice and helping me under stand this better Do you think the glottkin is worth taking with a blight cyst and plague bearer support? I'm just toying with ideas for a competetive list at the minute.
  14. I've been wracking my brains last night over blight king units. People tend to have a unit of 10..... Can I ask the main reasoning for this? I'm not a competetive player so perhaps this is to do with objectives? But having 2 units of 5 would also have benefits; like being able to be in 2 places instead of 1. Also the virulent discharge would have twice the chance of happening so healing each other and wounding the enemy. Also an additional wound thanks to the leader of the unit? Finally while it was mentioned could someone explain the capturing and holding of objectives, particularly in a competetive scene as I'd like to go to a tournament this year. Thanks in advance
  15. Bit more work do e on some more blight kings this weekend. This was mainly an experimemt playing around with various metal effects/westhering using washes and glazes. Believe it or night all the metal on these started out as white! Hope you guys like
  16. It also activates the locus on plague drones. I never noticed that before. Makes him so much more useable to me now!
  17. I've only just noticed that the harbinger has the 'daemon' key word. Is this a miss print? I've never noticed this before 😭
  18. @Forrix do you have pictures of your army? I'm always on the look out for inspiration for my blight kings. I want each unit to look differnt yet still look part of a cohesive army.
  19. Do you mind sharing your list? I never considered taking harbinger before (one of the few models I don't own)
