[AoS 2 - Gloomspite Gitz Discussion]

So I'm new to gloomspite gitz came up with what I think is a decent 1000 point list (actually it's more like 980) just to get a feel for the army and was wondering what advice you guys would give to bump it up 2000. While still keeping this core of 1000 points.

Skargrott The Loonking: 

General, The Hand of Gork 

Madcap Shaman: 

The Great Green Spite, Spiteshroom Familar.

Stabbas x60

Stabbasx20

Sporesplatta Fantaics x5

Sneaky Snufflers x6

All advice and constructed criticism is welcome! 

[AoS 2 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion]

So I'm new to AOS and Maggotkin of Nurgle, I bought a start collecting box of daemons of nurgle and the maggotkin battletome and I'm at a loss of where to start with my army.  Where do I go from here? 

Is a pure daemon/mortals list better then a mixed list? Am I required to take a battalion from the battletome or do I have the option of building my own?

From what I can tell the only two battalions everyone really talks about our Blight Cyst and Thricefold Befoulment.

I like the Thricefold Befoulment but I'm not sure of what battlelines would be the most effective for it. Outside of the standard plaguebearers. I was thinking maybe blightkings with a Gutrot Spume and 2 units of plaguedrones. Gutrot deepstriking behind the enemy to cause confusion plaguedrones as a alpha strike force  and using a umbrel spell portal to benefit the thricefold but I'm not sure if that is a good strategy or if I would even have the points to really pull it off. 

Any advice you could give a newbie would be very much appreciated!
