So I decided to build a decent Nurgle army but i'm lost in the many unit options I have.

My list so far :

Everchosen Archaon Exalted Grand Marshal - General
The Glottkin
Harbinger of Decay

Unit of 5x Putrid Blightkings
Unit of 5x Putrid Blightkings
Unit of 10x Chaos Marauders
Unit of 10x Chaos Marauders

I feel this is a solid list with many synergies at 1800pts.
What should i add to get it to 2000 pts ?
Also i feel like the marauders could be replaced with something better but i'm unsure as to what that should be.

Thanks in advance.

You don't really have any shooting, so maybe consider some of that?
Or Epidemius?
Maybe merge the Marauders into a unit of 20 to increase the benefit from the Glottkin?

You cant use the command ability of glotkin cause archaon is still ypur general. So I´m not sure to use Glotkin if hes not your boss. Its very cool the add a skaven Plagueclaw, so you get a very good shooting unit for 180 points.

Otherwise I dont think that you can play this list because you only have two Battlelines and I think that you need three if you play with more than 1000 points.

This almost matches the most powerful Nurgle list I know of. I'd recommend filling it out to that:

Archaeon
Glottkin
Harbinger of Decay
Blightkings x5
Blightkings x5
Marauders x7 (yes, seven, even when you pay for ten)
Marauders x7
Marauders x7
Plaguetouched Warband

In addition to the deployment benefits the warband makes your whole army -1 to hit in melee and makes the marauders deal mortal wounds when opponents damage them in melee.

Archaeons command ability bypasses that, and blightkings are battleline if you have mortal nurgle allegiance so his list totally works.

Other then fluff reasons why would he take 7 instead of the 10 he paid for?

The battalion gives a benefit for units taken in multiples of 7, it makes it so that when an enemy rolls a 6 or more to wound them in the combat phase they take a mortal wound. Also the unit champion of a 7-multiple unit can deal a mortal wound on a 4+ when he attacks. Since marauders are chaff anyways its worth losing three dudes to get that benefit.

I played with the following 2000 point army the other day and it was pretty entertaining:

Glottkin
Epidemius
Orghotts Daemonspew
5x Putrid Blightkings
30x Plaguebearers
30x Plaguebearers
30x Plaguebearers
