I have to work out how the glott Kim would work into the list. He cannot have a command trait or an artifact because he is a unique character. And the witherstave is a “requirement” to be competitive IMO.  So I have to figure out how I could slot him in...but 2 wound bestigors doing mortals on 5s sounds tasty 😄

Could you have harbinger as general, although u would have the command ability problem I think.

if one unit of blightkings went to 5, you would still have battle line and could bring in harbinger or lord of afflictions and make that general with witherstaff?

Im already shifting my list, in anticipation of this new mechanic (ignoring DPR) being the hip new trend. Especially with an entire NEW army being released around the corner. In order to do well competitively you have to adapt! Going to try lists with No harbinger and No warshrine! I'm at the "drawing board" for LVO. I REALLY want to stay as the top ranked nurgle player on ITC. Thats my goal for this year. 

Looking at something like this. Not sure if it will be competitive but it sure would be FUN! And I want to use my damn PESTigor models!!! Bestigors would be a max of 16" movement, d6+1 run and charge 2d6+2, with a 4" pile in! 

Could go less speed but more punch and use my favorite model (GLOTTKIN) instead of GUO and take out the cogs or taurus. Would also give you BLADES, as well as two wound bestigors LOL 

Allegiance: Nurgle

Leaders
Great Unclean One (340)
- General
- Bile Blade & Doomsday Bell
- Trait: Grandfather's Blessing
- Artefact: The Witherstave
- Lore of Virulence: Favoured Poxes
Gutrot Spume (140)
Great Bray Shaman (100)

Battleline
10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)
10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)
10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)

Units
30 x Bestigors (300)

Endless Spells / Terrain
Chronomantic Cogs (80)
Wildfire Taurus (80)

Total: 2000 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 0
Allies: 0 / 400
Wounds: 178
 

 

Now that looks fun! And I have all the models except the Taurus spell. What would your list look like with glotking? Would he be general with witherstaff

Nice line-up of models you got there.. It'd be a shame if someone.... helped you with a list

Those are some varied armies you have to face! HARDY troops, shooty troops, massed troops! Whats your playstyle? What units would you like to use? Thats a huge list. Noticeably no plaguebearers so either mortal troops or a pestilent throng. 

 any suggestions or shall I buy a warshrine

Hi,

I have fallen in love with Nurgle models and I love painting. Only swapped to slannesh cause of the speed  and the new models are amazing.

 I do have 30 plaguebearers (auto correct mucked it up) I have played demons with 30 plaguebearers as anvil and drones as hammer with blades spell:) and GUO as magic back up. Have also played blightkings a lot and played around with a list with bloab as he’s a cool model. 

Recently it’s all been blightkings, normally with lord of blights with battalion for the rend, although I’m beginning to think that’s not the best. Play-style wise I have tried aggressive a few times without much joy, recently it seems to be a bit more defensive, stacking buffs, summoning in to hold objectives to try and outlast the opponent.

Not tried gloat yet as he’s such a point sync, been thinking about pestilential grove with bestigors as back up to blightkings but I’m unsure, hence the appeal for a mega  Nurgle list  from the experts. 

I love your warshrine list btw  if I had one I would be trying that list.

You have a great selection of models to choose from! I would start your list with the minimum blight cyst and add some punch to it.

Lord of Blights

5x Putrid Blightkings

5x Putrid Blightkings

5x Putrid Blightkings

Blight Cyst

That all equates to 840 points

Add in a Great Unclean One and a unit of 6 Plaguedrones (these are your heavy hitters once you get them extra attacks from the GUO's command ability and their locus ability)

You are up to 1580 and I think you want some flavor of Rotbringer Sorcerer in there to cast Blades of Putrefaction on your drones. You have exactly enough room for the Glottkin but...if it were me, I would just take the vanilla sorcerer and then you would have 300 to spends on some smaller toys (Gutrot is nice, especially if somehow you found another 5 Blightkings somewhere, that would be exactly 300 points).  I am basically suggesting a Rotbringers army with an independent drone bomb attached. The GUO needs to keep-up with and baby sit the drones, but I find this is reasonable if you plop your tree down in the middle of the board and equip the GUO with a bell. Maybe give him Endless Gift so he can get stuck-in alongside the drones and not worry about dying.

Summon-in your plaguebearers in units of 5 or 10 to catch objectives mid and late game.

The Glottkin will be more fun when you have those Marauders ready and when you aren't playing against Pestilence

Hope this helps!

 

Thank you for the guidance  It helps a lot.

fingers crossed I win
