Typhus lurking with zombies, PMs booting forward with rhinos, Oblis doing the heavy hitting and Prince swooping around.

I could make suggestions like "like fit in a heldrake" and all but really it looks kinda solid. Tough, Diverse, everything has a purpose "spread the plague" "come at me bro". If you could please post a good run on how it plays sometime? that would be awesome. very cool list

Something seems wrong with your point totals on the plague marine units.

For instance, 6x plague marines with 2x plasma guns and a rhino with havok comes to 221 points but you listed it at 245.

Did you mean to type 7 plague marines instead of 6 perhaps?

Your list is similar to mine, the main difference being i use 2 Heldrakes instead of a demon prince.

I like mark of nurgle alot better than VoTLW on the obliterators. The extra leadership is nice, but not instantly dying to strength 8-9 is better IMO.

Well, as said, I'd squeeze in a Helldrake with a bale flamers. For this, you could drop two Obliterators and some Zombies.

Thanks for all the comments.

Thought about the helldrake but my concerns is that is he realy worth 2 oblis?

Oblis: you get (atleast) one round extra shooting, more wepn otions. They are less mobile, more fragile.

Drake: Wtfpwn flamer, mobile, (durable). May get shot down by one lucky shot, Uncertantly of when coming on board.

I am also a bit sceptic about the DP... He is a killer in melee, cranking S***loads of Ap2, wounding on 2 but at the same time I could get a big squad of bikers or similars...

Yes there are 7 on each, it was just copied straight from AB so I apologize for being unclear.

Believe me, the Hell Drakes are worth it as they have the coveted sky fire rule. Consider yourself lucky if your local meta is not Flyer heavy.
