You can run him as a plague priest.

You mean give him the point value of a plague priest or just use the plague priest' s warscroll for him?

 

[AoS 2 - Clan Pestilens Discussion]

Ah well thats unfortunate I like to keep things as fair as possible when I play with them but if he doesn't have a point value then there is no way for us to adjust our armies properly.

Oh well guess he'll just be a really cool looking figure I have laying around.

Thank you for your time.

I recently bought Nurglitch from the Games workshop online store and I've found the current warscroll for him but I have yet to find what his point value is. does anyone know what his point value is? (Also I heard somewhere that he is tournament illegal but I just want to use him in games against my friend who runs storm cast eternals not really for tournament purposes.)

Ok so I've been working on my line up for my army and here is what I got from using a war scroll builder.

1 Verminlord Corruptor

2 plague furnaces

1 plague priest with warpstone tipped staff

3 units of 40 plague monks

3 units of plague bearers

1 rattling gun weapon team

2 warpfire thrower weapon team

1 warp lightning cannon

and 2 endless spells

soulsnare shackles

quicksilver swords

this is what i have planned so far for the final build of my army it is subject to change especially if anyone has any suggestions on how i can improve it

The Sword of Judgement is a realm artefact and its rules are detailed in the Malign Sorceries expansion.  You can say that your army is from a specific realm and take artefacts from that realm in your list - in this case, your army would need to be from Ulgu. It’s not a piece that’s included with the set - the Corruptor’s weapons are still the normal ones unless you choose to model the artefact onto it - it’s just like saying that your plague priest has the Liber Bubonicus of something from the Pestilens artefacts.

 

If you do choose to play your army as a Grand Alliance Skaven list, you won’t be able to use Plague Monks as a battleline option anymore of course as they are only battleline *if Pestilens allegiance*. So you’ll need to find space in your list for three generic Chaos battleline options for a legal 2k list, e.g. three blocks of 20 clanrats. There have been some examples of lists like this earlier in the thread.

 

Thanks again that clears things up alot.

If your allegiance is ‘Skaven Pestilens’ then other Skaven units will count towards your allies - you can have 400 points of allies in a 2000 point list.

If you take the allegiance ‘Grand Alliance: Chaos’ instead you can mix and match all Skaven to your heart’s content but you will lose access to all the Pestilens goodies and artefacts. 

Hope that helps. 

Yes that helps a lot thank you. My friend and I dont normally use artifacts so not being able to use clan pestilence's artifacts is not a huge loss.

This brings me to another question I have which is about the sword of judgment. I looked over the extra pieces from my verminlord but I could not find a sword anywhere. Which lead to to believe it must be a relic or something so I looked it up and all I could find were the stats for it but did not really say what is was. Also keeps sending me links to the Daughters of kaine for some reason.

Thank you for your assistance I will try to implement what you have said into my rat bois. Also I agree with you on the plague claw I almost never hit with it and even when I do they always make their saves. I'd be more than happy to bring in some warp lightning cannons or any mortal wound causing guys from clan skryre but there is a slight problem I've found with that. Some people have told me that the different clans count as allied units which means you have to spend allied points to add them into your army. However I've also been told by others that you dont have to worry about the allied points because they are all apart of the same faction technically. I've looked in the general handbook and could not find a ruling on it. Though I have dyslexia so it is somewhat difficult to read things like that and can easily miss important details so if you know the rulings on that it would be a big help.

Hi I just started playing age of sigmar about 4 or 5 months ago and Im still building my army. I'm running clan pestilence and I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on what I should get to better combat my friend's army the stormcast eternals.

My biggest question being is it possible for clan pestilence or any skaven army to beat the stormcast eternals. because we have played quite a few times and I have yet to beat him once. so some tips on what to build and maybe some strategies would be very helpful.
