  1. The vortex is nice for the added spell and range. I like palisades if I know I'm going up against something shooty. Shackles can be handy, and cogs can be really functional but rather pricey, imo. Lots of times if it comes down to it or the CP, the CP takes it. I've shied away from using the portal..... I don't like the idea of giving my opponent a way to send damage back at me ?
  2. Yeah, it's convoluted.... you can't take a pestilens battalion with nurgle forces, BUT you CAN take pestilens units in your Nurgle force, (without naming them as allies, btw) because they share the Nurgle keyword.

  4. Bloab is kind of a point sink now, along with the other maggoth kin. If he's all you have right now, use him by all means. But for the points a vermin lord is a whole lot better.
  5. I'll weigh in on this. Why not? I posted a thread about it..... I'm still not real clear on it, but...... the general consensus is that PTWB can be run as pure GA: Chaos. Meaning that any mortal, nurgle units can be used to fulfill the requirements of the war scroll. That's fine, I guess. I'm not going to go out of my way to field it anymore as the loss of all of the Nurgle lore, artifacts, abilities, etc have taken away the "flavor"?, at least for me. I think for a very casual game vs a noob who needs a nice long game to hone his skills, playing against a slow moving tank force would be ok. I personally don't want to turn back the clock to running what is, for me, a boring army. Just sayin'.
  6. Well for me the obvious is another unit of Kings......That still leaves 160 pts for something else. Gutrot and an extra 20 for an endless spell, or cogs and 2 cps.....there's quite a bit that you can do here actually. Marauders at 200 and another sorcerer?
  7. Not really an expert, but yeah, they seem to be in Korean......?
  8. The faqs per the update on GW site: Pages 46-156 – Khorne Bloodbound, Daemons of Khorne, Tzeentch Arcanites, Daemons of Tzeentch, Nurgle Rotbringers and Daemons of Nurgle These warscrolls are no longer used. They have been replaced with the warscrolls in Battletome: Blades of Khorne, Battletome: Disciples of Tzeentch and Battletome: Maggotkin of Nurgle. Also, the PTWB never appeared in the GA chaos book. Only in the Everchosen battletome. PTWB as we know it seems to be dead. I'm hoping that GW resolves this soon.
  9. There's been quite a bit of discussion about it. Whether or not the fact that the battalion is listed under "everchosen" makes it alliance specific to that. Meaning, of course, that all other factions without everchosen keyword would then count as being ally choices. GW is going to have to answer this in the near future. No problem, as far as I'm concerned in casual play. But it's pretty much been killed in the competitive (tournament) scene.
  10. Yup, the new GHB really put the screws to all demons lists across all alliances...... It appears that the new approach is to include them by summoning. You can definitely include the heroes', i.e. GUO, LoA , Slimux, etc and then drop units of PBs and single beasts, bases of nurglings near objectives and annoy the **** out of your opponent. Demon lists should always, IMO, include drones at the outset. Their speed and punch can't be left off for summoning. I also think that the garden and tall band can be made to work. Just not sure how competitive of a player you are. More experienced players will easily take those down.
  11. Yeah, he's pretty much a staple with the PTWB. I'm assuming that you're playing this in non-competitive settings. The PTWB only exists in the Everchosen battletome. Therefore, it is impossible to legally build a match play list as all of your units, excepting those with the 'ever chosen' keyword would count as allies.? Still, it's fun for practice games and 'just playing'.
  12. Looks pretty good. I just hate the idea of giving up all the Nurgle Alliance stuff......
  13. Well, yeah. I don't think it's competitive, but could be fun. I currently am a kind of "first hit's free" kind of guy at our local GW. I play a lot of noobs so I think it's list that would show a lot of the different demographics of the game. I'm afraid that it may even be a bit too strong for that role, what with all those drones.....

  16. That's the way I read it. The portal is the origin point of the spell. The caster is where you measure to dispel it.
