    Interesting list! Why Blighlords over Plague Drones? 

    I actually really rate them highly, the difference in survivability isn’t much, being 2 wounds less but with a 4+ save, but I would have found it difficult at any point in 6 games to get more than 4 into combat or over the back of enemy units due to the amount of terrain on the table, and model for model these hit harder. With grandfathers blessing and the spell from the chaos sorcerer lord, they killed a leviadon in one turn, 20 ardboys (including battleshock) in one turn, and 28 hearthguard berserkers over a couple of turns in different games. They never got killed in 6 games either which was pretty nice.

  2. Went to Cancon and managed to win 4/6 with the following list:

     
    Allegiance: Nurgle
    Leaders
    Great Unclean One (340)
    - General
    - Bile Blade & Doomsday Bell
    - Grandfathers Blessing
    - The Witherstave
    Poxbringer Herald of Nurgle (120)
    Chaos Sorcerer Lord (160)
    - Mount: Steed
    - Runestaff
    Lord of Blights (140)

    Battleline
    30 x Plaguebearers (320)
    10 x Putrid Blightkings (320)
    5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)

    Units
    4 x Pusgoyle Blightlords (440)

    Total: 2000 / 2000
     
    The two games I lost were really close, one to a thricefoul befoulment where the relocating orb abandoned me, and one against an evocator heavy stormcast list. Had a fantastic time though and managed to get a best opponent award, and finished overall 42/roughly 200.

  3. So I’m super tempted by an all Squigs army, has anyone played many games with them yet? I always find there’s a bit of a difference between how I think something might perform based on the warscrolls, and how something actually performs. 

    I’d love any thoughts on the following list if anyone has any.

    Also, just to make sure, the boss on mangler squig can’t be included in the squig rider stampede can it?

    I'd it worth buying any pusgoyles I have 20 blightkings now but am curious if pusgoyle are worth taking in large numbers? 

    I love pusgoyles personally. I run between 10-20 blight Kong’s and I now always run a unit of 4 as a fast hammer that I buff from the Guo and blades if I can get it off, they can be a little bit hit or miss, but they’re great at monster/character hunting and taking out a highly offensive unit before they get a chance to attack. Much like most things in Nurgle a debuff to hit really hurts their output, but I still rate them. 

  5. Figured I’d post up the list I just played with at a local one day event. With a bit of luck I Finished 3rd with 3/3 wins against gore pilgrims, tomb kings and sacrosanct stormcast. So far the list has been really flexible, though I haven’t come close to wiping anyone out, it’s been great at objectives. Will probably end up swapping the LoP for a LoB in the future.

  6. It seems that plague drones are the favoured of the two, but I Just finished up my second game with 4 pusgoyles in a unit, so far they’ve been my MVP both games. Their movement, durability and attacks (when buffed by a GUO) Just kept me in the game against a strong witch elf list. Not sure there has been an Occassion where I’d have rathered the drones get as I have only been able to get 3-4 max into combat anyway. Definitely a viable option for those deciding whether to give them a go.

    So with no more plaguetouched warband, looking at the following maybe:

    Great Unclean One (General) (Tome of a Thousand Poxes)

    Harbinger of Decay (Witherstave)

    Lord of Blights

    Sorcerer

    5 Blightkings 

    5 Blightkings 

    5 Blightkings 

    30 Marauder Horsemen  (Nurgle)

    Blight Cyst

    Extra command point

    So plan is to use the marauder horsemen to pen the enemy in with harbinger buff and lord of blights buff. If possible, blades too since its amazing on marauder horse. 

    Harbinger trails the horsemen with for the extra save/witherstave. 

    GUO has the bell for movement purposes and the tome to push spells through. Also would look to switch the wheel for extra movement turn 1.

    Blightkings go after objectives as fast as possible 

    Hopefully can bring in a unit of drones mid game for extra support.

    Much of the army will die but I'm thinking it could be good on objectives.

    Interested to hear everyone's thoughts on mostly mortal nurgle now that plaguetouched has gone.

    I've run blight cyst a bit now, but I wouldn't really consider it with under 20 blightkings or else it's just not worth the points, and even then it hasn't been amazing. Maybe consider dropping the sorcerer for more BKs?
