May be remove the lord of afflictions give the whiterstave to the GUO and remove to pusgoyle frome the 4 model until for Glottkin or rotigus. This will make PB stronger as the -1 to hit + the repeat 6s to hit is a very good combo. It also helps to get more 1s for the one last gift ability

Sadly I don't have another GUO or Glottkin. I have a bunch of Blightkings and all associated heros(not the maggotlords).

Played this list against a Seraphon monster list and got shot to pieces. The 2 of the 20x Plaguebeares did nothing but die and the one fully buffed 20 unit. I could only get 6-7 in melee due to unit coherency. They managed to take out one of the monsters but the list had 5 more. They then died as well. Any suggestions? Change up my battalions I think I hunters in the heartland isn't worth it in the long run. I'd honestly rather just play Blightkings if I am going to get wiped out at least I'll roll lots of dice to make it happen. I will save the global reduction to rend was nice. One Last gift didn't do any damage(he didn't roll 1's).

Just realized this isn't a legal list. I can't have 2 Hunters of the Heartlands per page 13 of the GHB.

For most scenarios you don't need extra movement to reach objectives on the first turn if you run a few units and have a GUO with bell, without considering circle of contagion. Doesn't mean LoA is bad a general, but this buff doesnt strike me as game changer.

If I run single GUO I use bell+blade. If I run 2 GUOs i like having the second one with massive blade+flail.

Thanks!

Nurgle players in a mono demon list, Great Unclean one as general? -16 wounds and tough or Lord of Afflictions as general only 8 wounds not as tough BUT has access to Spearhead of Contagion for early objective control(adds 8 to the Pusgoyle Blightlords movement) making them a base movement of 16"-cost a command point. I am running 6 Pusgoyles in my list 1 group of 4 and one group of 2. 

Also blade or flail on GUO. I think its always go blade just wanted to double check.

I need advice on what I should spend on my remaining 185 points. Another Sloppity? Also, what is the consensus on making the Lord of Afflictions general for Spear of Contagion? Or is the GUO the preferred holder of One Last Gift for staying power? 

Also bonus question do we lose our D3 summoning points if our tree gets destroyed? 

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

6 x Plague drones have to deal with coherency rules. So it might not be the best to take. Haven't tried myself yet, just an observation. 

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

Can you post your list? Thinking about going mono demon now.

In large units yeah, but they're untouched with units of 3. I've been finding that a unit of 3 with sloppity and spoilpox and the command ability from a GUO just wreck face. All the more now if they buff themselves with all out attack. Plus they're super tanky if you switch the buffs to defensive mode.

Forgive me I know a majority of you all have many games under your belt. We have a small group of us that play AoS in my town. Just a group of friends there are five of us. Our FLGS closed down and we mainly just play each other. We largely play 1250 pt games but our working to 2000. The meta is largely in my favor as the armies are(BCR, IronJawz(haven't play against yet), Seraphon, Ossiarch Bonereapers(haven't played against yet). However, I am having problems with Daemonettes, I just don't see to get alot out of them. Last game I ran 30, 10 vs BCR and they just under perform. How do you all play them in order to maximize? The battalion? 

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

Yeah, I agree, Thankfully they are quick games so can always just experiment. Thanks for responding.

Thoughts on updates to Verminlord Corruptor and plague monks? 

[AoS 2 - Stormcast Eternals Discussion]

Hello Stormcast Players,

I am interested in transitioning to your army. I currently play Nurgle and as I do enjoy them I sorta feel they are currently lacking in some areas and have some really bad match ups. 

I am having difficulties finding the best way to get a 1250 list that is semi competitive. Which boxes do you recommend?

I was going to try running bloab rotspawned with magnificent buboes for this exact role.

 

Planning on targeting casters specifically. 

 

Will be trying him against some storm cast next week

Let me know, LON and Nighthaunt have been rough for me because I haven’t been able to kill hero’s or casters to stop that crazy buffing.

If your nurgle is slow it's probably you... Everytime I play against nurgle I get turn 1 charges in my face even at 24" between us. 

Yeah, but you have to have a GUO with Bell and and move the wheel and slingshot with the terrain, it’s less the “slow” that’s the problem and more that I don’t particularly love the playstyle of the armor.

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

What are you all using for hero sniping? I know we are weak at it but we have to have some tricks.

[AoS 2 - Sylvaneth Discussion]

Thinking about switching from Nurgle(I am new to AOS). I like Nurgle but it’s sooo slow and my local meta is all fast(LON, BCR,NH, Lizards). I also want a army with some hero shipe and nurgle sucks at that. Sell me on Sylvaneth. What do you think the greatest strengths and weaknesses(bonus points if you compare to nurgle)?
