my list for a tournament this sunday, 1500 points:
general: GUO with bell and dagger; grandfathers blessing; witherstave.
harbinger of decay
epidemius
30 plaguebearers
3x5 putrid blightkings
this army is based in been very resilient, witherstave + harbinger. Resist for a couple of turns in objectives as the tally of epidemius and contagion points grow, so in the 3rd turn could turn the tides!
what do you think? Epidemius hides in the plaguebearers unit and under the witherstave umbrella, should be safe. In the other side the blightkings are protected by the harbinger command ability and being MSU avoid those crippling -1 to hit. By the 3rd turn is not unreasonably to have 21 contagion points to summon 20 plaguebearers or 3 plague drones.
C&C are welcome
PD another list I'm thinking is:
general: GUO with bell and dagger; grandfathers blessing; witherstave.
harbinger of decay
horticulus
20 plaguebearers
3x5 putrid blightkings
I like the first list but perhaps take festus instead of epidemus?
I've never had good fortune with epidemus, personally. And festus can cast blades, and rebuff enemy armour which really helps the blight kings to shine!

Not had the chance to work on my nurgle stuff lately, just a few minutes here and there. But have managed to finally finish my tree. Hope you guys like. Questions please ask. Happy painting

Thoughts on an 800 point list for the upcoming tournamnt;
Allegiance: Nurgle
Mortal Realm: Ghyran
Leaders
Lord of Plagues (140)
- General
- Trait: Grandfather's Blessing
- Artefact: Ghyrstrike
Gutrot Spume (140)
Battleline
5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)
5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)
5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)
Total: 760 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 24
Allies: 0 / 400
Wounds: 74
I am thinking I could potentially add in festus instead of gutrot for some spell support?
Any thoughts would be much appriciated

You could do worse than a harbinger or lord of plagues with 20 Blightkings for 800. Maybe 1 unit of 10 and 2 of 5. Then to get to 1k you can add a unit of plague drones, since mobility is what you will lack.
Alternatively, get the drones into 800 - something like: Harbinger, 10 Blightkings, 10 Plaguebearers, 3 plague drones.
I think I would rather more blight kings as they are absolute tanks. But I do have the plague bearers painted already 🤔

Also for a potential tournament, there is a local 800 point event being run.
I think this would be a good event to get me into the swing of things and also a realistic target for having a painted army.
Any suggestions for a list this size? With our units being a bit on the expensive side, I have no idea where to start with this!

Well that's tough but I do bring the Witherstave which is a big FU to ghosts.
What about the carrion dirge (-2 to bravery) is that worth while taking? It could potentially mean and additional 2 enemy units lost per combat phase?
Or is making the enemy reroll 6s quite effective?
Sorry still really new to AoS so plenty of questions 😁

I use Blight Cyst because the rend IS amazing. When you roll hot and get a handful of 6s and lay down a bunch of -1 rend wounds, you can kill anything.
How do you combat armies that through out -1 to hit or ignore the rend (like nighthaunt)?
-
So I've decided I'm going to attend a tournament this year. More for sh*ts and gigs than anything else. I'm very much a casual player but thought it would be good to get some games in with people outside my usual group.
To that end I want a half decent list so I don't leave completely deflated and hating my hobby 🤣
SO my question is which of the Cyst battalions are a best all rounder in the competetive scene? I know the befoulment battalion is currently scene as our best battalion but 1) i don't want to buy/paint another 2 GUOs 2) I do t want to be that guy and would rather bring an all round list that both me and my opponent enjoy playing. Hence the choice of Cyst battalion.
I'm leaning more towards the plague cyst as rerolling all misses within 7" of the Lord of plagues seems like it could help ALOT more than the +1 rend.
What's people's thoughts on this?
Also if any members on here can recommend a good 1 day event in the north east of UK that would be much appriciated as well

They usually are, the reduced drops can make a huge difference because picking who goes first can swing the odds massively in your favor. Normally I'd say blight cyst is almost always worth it but nighthaunt ignores 90% of what it does, so plague cyst is the backup. Rerolling hits is pretty huge and the debuffs from nighthaunt make it more important, plus the chip mortal wound damage helps get around the etheral nonsense.
How does this list seem? Was unsure of what to give the Lord so thought the extra damage on a roll of a 6+ would be useful for churning out as many wounds as possible and the rebuff to bravery, or could give the GUO the wheel shenanigans trait?

Yeah they're immune to anything that increases or decreases their save.
ReAnimate, I'd suggest swapping the Lord of Blights for a Lord of Plagues, then drop Festus and the balewind for the plague cyst batallion. I'd also love to get the cogs in for the gutrot blight kings but it's much tougher. You won't be as tanky without the Lord of Blights, but the mortal wound output of night haunt would ignore it anyway. Then maybe stick the witherstave on the GUO with the extra artifact, or the tome of 1000 poxes for spinning the wheel. Oh and grandfather's blessing rather than hulking physique for the same reason.
Is the battalion worth it? I keep trying to take a battalion but rather take a unit of plague drones instead.

I'm going to be playing night haunt next week at some point. I've never played them before and was thinking of the following list:

Lord of Blights (140)

Total: 1960 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 0

Any suggestions or advice on playing them would be great. Thanks

Have a question that I hope is relevant.
Assume the following:
- 300 points left over from a 2000 point army
- only 2 battleline choices so far
- no battalions
- no glottkin
What's the best battleline choice for the leftover points? 30 plaguebearera doesn't fit and there's no fleshy abundance or attack buff for marauders.
So, more blightkings? 15 warriors as a screen? Units of 10 plaguebearers for a screen (there is a GUO for the bell so locus is available)
What about maraurders, will give you an extra 2 CP as well

I would probably go for the rustfang to soften enemy units up for your blightkings who have no rend. The debuff persists all game, even if your lord of blights dies which is great. I also love the fecund flask for fluff and for the chance to summon a random beast of nurgle which is funny, but perhaps not the best play tactically haha. Does your army have a realm of origin or do you keep it flexible?
Yea I keep the realm flexible as papa nurgle will spread his gifts where ever he chooses
-
What about additional artefacts any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks for the advice though
-
Ladies and gents, would like some advice, havnt played in a while and not 100% sure on my list. Mainly after advice on the item to give the Lord of blights, I don't have much experience with malign sorcery so any advice appriciated.
Is the battalion worth it or should I drop for a unit of plague drones?
Hoping to balewind festus' spell for the extra 6" and gets blades off as well. Could potentially drop this endless spell for an extra CP?
Hulking physique is to make the GUO a bit harder hitting in combat as he always ends up in CC.
I know plague bearers aren't the most efficient unit but they are what I have to hand
Thanks in advance.

Can someone link me to the list of official base sizes for AoS2 please or tell me the sizes for the following:
GuO (forge world model)
Bloab Rotspawned
Glottkin
Nurglings
Just wanted to be 100% sure on basesizes before I bought more. I have them mounted on mdf bases from the previous edition and wanting to rebase.
Thanks

Ooh, is that some kind of dedicated mini painting app? Or just great note-keeping. 🙂
It's called paint rack, it's available on play store etc. It is a god send for someone in my position as I can keep customer records in it if they ever want additional units for armies I paint at future dates.
Also for my own personal stuff which is painted very few and far between!
Highly recommended it and it's not expensive at all. My only little gripe about it is some of the widgets associated to paints differ in colour from there real life counter part. But it is only a minor issue and one I am happy to live with

I really like the basing overall and they work really well as is. The only observation I would give is that the green dominate color composition of the bases blends into the greens of the minis a bit. I tend to like a to have my bases contrast more with my minis. Maybe add some differing color tuffs and foliage to break up the greens and yellows. Again this is a minor suggestion and overall your work is top notch. I am enjoying the pics.
Thanks, that is a good suggestion. I am trying to get a garden of nurgle that's full of life. But guess it dosnt have to be green right?
I might try source some blue and red flowers to contrast all the greens

Pretty much calling these guys done. Have decided on the basing theme for my army! A not so nurgle garden of nurgle lol.
What do you guys think? Any suggestions would be appreciated before I start mass producing bases 😊

Just quality across the board. All the Nurgle stuff looks fantastic. I love the Balewind Vortex also, the color contrast is wonderful, it will pop beautifully on the table. Keep cranking out the hobby candy!!!!!!
Thank you

Thank you
I want to have each group of 5 kings look differnt but if put together they still look like a coherent unit.
AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion

Posted
Help needed, I am after an all round list that I could play both competitively that will be a good "all rounder" I keep tailoring lists to match opponents (as my opponents do to me) But I would rather have a really solid list that I could play time and again with the aim of brining to a tournament at the end of the year.
I have most of the models in the range with the exception of marauders and plague monks. I can't stand the marauderers (the actual models) so I won't be using them. Plague monks I could get if needed, although I would prefer to keep it an all maggotkin (models from the rulebook) list if possible.
Any advice or suggestions are greatly appriciated. This is also to give me a target for my painting as well.

I feel this list is pretty solid, plenty of hard hitting units and an out flank with gutrot. The Lord of blights helping to rebuff the enemy. I've avoided taking the blade on the GUO as I do d with the time I rarely feel I need to use it and as most of my opponents always charge him I'd like to make him a bit harder hitting.

This list is using festus to support the glottkin and do a 9" mortal wound mini nuke (if I can pull it off) whilst also helping heal the big guy and negating enemy units (making up for the lack of rend using this battalion)
the nurgling are to either engage enemy war machine on the back line and net extra contagion points or act as a speed bump to help control the board.
