An all Nurgle Daemon list is of course the coolest thing in the WH40k universe, so I get what you're doing Thing with Nurgle lists is a Huge lack of mobility and a disturbing difficulty with armour. You allready opted to mitigate this somewhat by introducing Tzeentch Flamers. That may be a good start. At 2000 points you can afford this luxury. At 1700 points I would hesitate introducing a non-Nurgle unit because of the importance of the Tally to the functioning of the list.

Things I would change are given with the abovementioned list. I'd refreign from using a Soulgrinder. Im not a fan of them in any list, but in an Epidemius list I like them even less. The Nurgle Princes need Wings IMO. Their mobilty offers a possible threat to vehicle that you really need. I suggest Beasts of Nurgle because they have the benefits of Plaguebearers without the Plaguebearers most flagrant weakness: the inability to deal damage in CC. The suggested Herald of Tzeentch is meant to offer mobility and some anti-tank. Same goes for the Screamers who are increadibly cheap for a unit that can contest an objective last turn with a 24" turboboost move. In theory it can threaten a tank so the unit isnt even wasted before the contest move.

Good luck with the list. Let us know you you fare with it.

I like the list, but I feel 1 soulgrinder isn't gonna cut it... with epidemus you wanna maximize your nurgly things to get the tally up high and in a hurry. 3 DP's with MON, wings, and 2 with touch and 1 with might (for anti-vehicle) would suit you best I think. I really think your list lacks anti-tank, maybe take out some PB's for some screamers or something. Looking good tho!

Thanks for the suggestions fellas.

I've fielded screamers w/ very limited success.

I don't know if I could drop the 2nd unit of flamers.

The amount of damage they do to troops is insane.

Wings on the princes may work, giving them much needed mobility.

Dropping nox touch & unholy might is gonna be hard.

I like the fact that combined w/ cloud of flies I can
charge into cover.hit 1st & reroll to wound.
