Played a second game today against Gits. A close game, but it was a Victory for the Rotbringers! 3 objectives, 1 set in the middle with the other 2 placed by each team. The game was alot of fun because it was anyones game near the end! Pictures coming soon. I know this can go for all factions, but for Rotbringers, I'm noticing there is almost zero room for error at the deployment stage. Place wrong and its really going to hinder or completely ruin any success of winning due to the lower movement speeds. I ran 2 Bells this time and managed to get in quick to the objectives, and held some cover where the enemy team could not attack me right away. It was a smart move on my part, keeping me within the 3 inch objective rule. I think double bells are nice for these types of objectives. Looking forward to another game before I switch over to my Kharadron and start painting my Rots. Anyone else have any games yet?

So I sorta got a game in today against Nighthaunt with my Rotbringers. I took the standard loadout; Blightking leader, Blightking with tocsin, Blightking icon bearer, 2 Blightkings, and a Pusgoyle blightlord. The game went poorly for me today because I ended up getting the rubbish deployment option. If I could have went with the other option, the game would have gone much smoother in my favor and probably more fun for both of us. The objective was attack/defend, attacker needed to collect and burn, 3 of 6 objectives. I was the defender and it was easy to see, going against fliers who spawn in the better deployment locations near the objectives would easily win this game. We hadn't played this one before, so we didn't know how stupid rng it turned out to be. Still, it was fun to move a few inches and get into a bit of combat lol. Will have some more games this week and will report back when I can.

Updated my op with both the Demons, Rotbringer and Ally cards and abilities found in the thread.

And one more just for fun, house rules Sorcerer. (Leader) Mix between Rotbringer Leader and an Arcanites caster.

I created custom Lord of Blights and Lord of Plagues Ally cards with the official values if anyone would like to use.😀

I think I will be adding one of the Allies to my first list to see how they do together.

Not having a sorcerer in the list was also a missed opportunity, especially with the added beast grave model.

I've been on the look out for anyone posting anything anywhere, but have not seen a thing on demons yet. I'll keep an eye out.

I've got everything built and tak'd such as the arms and helmets for ease of painting except for the pusgoyle which I'll wip together tonight. I'm going to try a list with: Blightking leader, 2 Tocsins, Icon, Blightking and Pusgoyle 1000 points

@Groomy, Yeah, I can completely understand why people are on the fence with em. I think they should have just made demons and rotbringers one pack. The added variety would have given alot more to build with and explore different playstyles.

I'm going to try and get in a game this week, with probably the same setup to start. I'll post back on how that goes asap.

Amazing work!

@girafarig Two icons sounds like a solid idea. I'm curious what could be done to add variety in that model though. I'd rather not have 2 of the same poses/banners. I've also read about a build using 2 Tocsins, for split group momentum which sounded interesting.

I was a bit disappointed with the lack of variety at first but I'm looking forward to running these guys soon none the less. 5 cards is very limited. It would have been more interesting to at least see a few weapon choices in the card variation or an option of blightlord leader on pusgoyle at the very least. If anyone wants to post the Demon side of things here, feel free! I'd love to hear some feedback, games etc on them, as I may consider grabbing them at some point too.
