this is what I've got so far

Ku'gath Plaguefather
3 Bases of Nurglings
3 Bases of Nurglings
3 Beasts of Nurgle

so that comes to 506 point, and everything has 4+ wounds (7 for the Plague Father )

Any advise is welcome

Note: I can change the army entierly because I don't have the models... yet

This won't work too well I'm afraid, Nurglings can't take objectives IIRC so just there you have auto lost 5/6 matches. Also 506 is a weird number...

If you want to stick with the Nurgle theme then i would suggest dropping Nurglings for plauge bearers minimum units who can hide in cover with shrouded. You should then drop a beast of nurgle and with the points buff up the plauge father with stuff, like psyker mastery levels to roll on biomancey (Iron arm can make you T10!) or the Portalglyph to spawn yet more plauge bearers (Although, pink horrors are MUCH better because 1 horror is as good as 10 in shooting). Cause right now you can hold no objectives, you have no AT save the GUO (Plague of rust helps, buts its not great) and half your army will be insta killed by a single vindicator blast. While plague bearers in cover usually geta 2+ so you wont lose your objectives, while the GUO and the Beats run forward to knock the enemy of of his. Its not much, but its the best i can do at such a small pt level and mono nurgle.

Sorry for the confusion its Ku'gath Plaguefather not a Great Unclean One, i already edited it, and I Think that Nurglings can take objectives (I cant find any thing that says otherwise) + being a Daemon of Nurgle they have Shrouded

Thanks

Edit: and i like Nurglings because with Infaltrate they can take most objectives in the deployment phase

You cannot upgrade the plaguefather as he is a special character (assuming the OP IS talking about using Ku'Gath?)

But Alex is generally right, no scoring in my experiance only works for one army, All death company for BA and thats onlybecause they actually CAN table the opponent.

two units of 10 PB is only 180 so that plus Ku'Gath still leaves points to use.

IIRC kugath plus 3 units of 10 is exactly 500?

That is quite tough for 500 points. whcih is a good place to start.

506 is just wierd.

All anyone wants in the world is to be accepted. Except me, i don't give a S%@t.

I was also looking for a cheap army when i made this list and plague bearers where not in my budget, + Ku'gath gives Nurglings wounds (But only 1 per turn) and i was aiming for 500p but got 506p (Note: I will be using mostly Troll Forged Models for this army)

Thanks
