The goal is to have so many big targets that have either high toughness and saves or vehicules with high armor of 12-13 AV so my opponent wont have enough high str stuff to deal with it, especially since its a pretty fast list so he wont have the time to deal with them one at a time.


Fast chargers are Chaos Spawns, Maulerfiend, Deamon Prince and Bloodthirster.

Helbrutes are guard dogs of Vindicators. Took the long ranged TL Lascannons on Helbrute so as to keep them a threat wherever they are since they are a bit slow.
Soulgrinder is there as an annoyance that wont die easily with his 4HP, 13AV, 5++ and Shrouded to get a 3+ or 2+ cover save, his almost immunity to crew shaken/stunned and defensive grenades. He should try to follow the Vindicators and Helbrutes. I love his 36" Str8 ap3 large blast and strong close combat potential

Heldrakes come out to scare him into leaving my army alone for a turn or two

The Cultists are there as mop up crew and late game objective holders, they start in reserve, unless Im fighting a deepstriking or dropod army.
Bloodletters are deepstriking where its kinda safe and hopefully close to a slightly squishy target (prioritizing safe place)

How do you guys think this list will do?

no response?

If you were spamming with troops, then the spawn aren't a bad idea, as it stands, they will be the sole target of all rank and file troops with a gun...

For shock troops, three or four deep striking termies fit the bill a bit better

I dont know how much I agree with that mr Karandras.
they are just as likely goign to try hitting the Deamon Prince or Bloodthirster and would take less time to kill than Nurgle Spawns.
Spawns have 6 of toughness and 3 wounds each, they have a 1/3 chance of having a 4+ArSv and pretty easily a 5+/4+ cover save.
5 Nurgle spawns can take an insane amount of bolter fire.
Quick math would say that 1 spawn can take 40 space marine bolter shot if he has a 5+ cover save, that means a team 5 can take about 200 bolter shots before going down this number goes up to 270 bolter shots if they have a 4+ ArSv/CovSav, if he wants them down so bad then he can have them but if he has that kind of anti infantry firepower then he has no chance against this list.

Terminators would not be a bad idea in this list but they dont have the same crowd control power that the spawns have, spawns would be one of the few things i have in my list that will be good against a swarm army and termies wouldnt do too well against this.
also I think the juggernaughts would look better in this list
