Whilst it has some pretty good survivability it's just got no Killy to it for such a high points cost, if to was a casual list it could be pretty fun to see if your mate could kill em before time runs out IF you've got the objectives... But they're so many ways to anhialate that list.. Needs more retaliation.. Maybe try mixing some nurgle bikers in their to harass heavy weapons while ur boys march? Also! Aegis is a waste of points for just oblits! Ur better off deep striking them.. Apart from that try to get some harasser units in there to sow the enemy from putting holes in your zombies.. If only for a couple of turns

Ultamately if you pored 1850 into a 24-36" gunline of nearly any race it would kill the zombies too easily and ur plague marines would be it.. Remember feel no pain can be instagibed, and their only T3.. (No upgrades for cultists.. Includes mark of nurgle.. Sniff) but if you can tie up those gunlines for just 2-3 turns...

I think I have been playing triple heldrake and the drakes are laying waste to so much in the opposing armies. 3 heldrakes is hella killy but i sorta understand what you are saying Keep in mind the zombies are only worth 300 points out of the list, Oblits, typhus and plague marines and triple heldrakes can kill quite a bit.

Well, you probably need more zombies. 60 really is not all that many, in addition, having a grand total of 1 AT unit will REALLY be difficult against armies like IG

Have you thought of one big unit of zombies and lots of groups of melta marines?
