I did not come up with this, the thread is somewhere on this forum. It worked by switching of magic and then murdering the wizards. Note it is an AoS 1 list

Was kinda hoping for more knights but thanks for digging that list out.

I'd love to see that knight based anti magic list

I'll be following this thread with interest regarding mortal units in Khorne. I have a legion of grey chaos warriors that need something to do.

[AoS 2 - Slaves to Darkness / Darkoath Discussion]

I'm utterly paralyzed with indecision over the fate of my large Slaves to Darkness collection.

I have somewhere in the region of 20 knights, 2 chariots, a Lord on Daemonic Mount, chaos Lord, 2 sorceror and approximately 35 chaos warriors. I keep thinking about where I can use them and how; ie as a stand alone Slaves to Darkness mob or as mortals in one of the "big 4" armies. I'm reluctant to commit one way or the other for fear of regretting it and having a thematically inflexible force.

So, how does this sound;

I paint them all in generic dark armour, black cloaks etc. Just functional heavy metal colours. Then I paint a banner bearer on foot and on steed in the colours and style of each god. 

That way if I want to field them for a specific army I take the unit and have the standard bearer as the one with the mark. 

Does this sound like it would work visually, the idea that the guy with the banner has the blessing and he shares it with his comrades?

Regarding my previous comment. I'm only going to be cashing in on the multiples of 7 thing with the two blocks of warriors. But I still think it has some legs. Pending any change to Sayls points this will come in with 20pts to spare with the new Plaguetouched points increase.

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

I realise this is entirely subjective but is Plaguetouched still worth it if you don't commit to the whole 'multiples of 7" thing? 

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

Ah yeah i remember that doing the rounds a few weeks ago. Powerful list no doubt but I wouldn't field an army of marauders if I had a gun to my head. Those models are simply awful. I couldn't bring myself to paint ten of them let alone sixty!

Slightly off topic but people seem fairly confident that the Everchosen batallions are remaining the same beyond a points increase. Has anyone actually clapped eyes on the new text yet or is just assumptions at this point?

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

My fault for using the wrong term originally but he won't need to be an ally as his scroll has the Nurgle keyword.

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

I recently picked up an EBay auction for Archaon.

What sort of shenanigans can occur from including him in a Maggotkin list?
