I would take more marines over the zombies. And if you do that you may as well exchange Typhus for a Nurgle Lord to roll with the Bikers

thanks for the reply!
hmmm i considered that, but was wondering if a biker lord is too fragile. My bikers were intended to be semi suicidal units that go after any vehicles and/or serve as a distraction for the footsloggers.

T6 Biker lord with Sigil is not fragile at all. Especially if you give it a good weapon. He will also be cheaper than Typhus and you can use those points to add bikers if you think your unit is too small

For PM its hard to go wrong with the double pguns, Autocannons are good on the Havocs, but you might want one of those Helldrakes to have the Hades

Automatically Appended Next Post:

You can take the burning brand for your Nurgle lord and then use hit and run to keep his unit mostly out of combat. Dropping a torrent over and over on his troops choices will hurt his objective holding. Not every lord has to be a CC monster.
