I could not find any reference, but are plague monks the mainstay unit for the  "bubonic court of Nurglich"?  They are a 1+ unit for this list, but no mention of what is considered the mainstay unit. The other side is there is no mention of a mainstay unit needed....... oh well.
thanks!

I would say that they are the mainstay unit because if you look in the Skaven army book at the back with the alternate lists it says that they are in the clan petilens army list.

AFAIK the Nurglitch list doesn't use the same buying criteria as a normal skaven army.

It uses some of the units from that armybook, but isn't the same list.

IPSO ERGO you simply use the buying criteria in the new list, so there IS no Mainstay process in that army.

I believe there is a recent white dwarf out there somewhere that has a regular pestilens list, different from the lustria nuglitch list. I think it uses plague monks as the mainstay.
