so yeah, mobile aspect, lots of troops, tough to crack shells with even harder nuts on the inside, lots of nom noming, and a dragon (not lizard) for funzzies, what do you guys think?

if you see a horde aspect, its totally not because I played orks for my whole career (5 years) so far...totally not (or is it O.O )

It's a very nice-looking Nurgle list, but I have a couple of critiques. Is VOTLW absolutelty essential? You've got lots of tough bodies on the field and I don't see a huge amount of them dying and taking Leadership tests, so no real need to take VOTLW. I'd also take out the 18 zombies horde make one of the zombie hordes a full 35 zombies. I would also take two of the bikers out of the biker squad, replace the champion's power sword with either an axe or fist (I personally prefer the axe but YMMV) and replace the flamers with either plasma or melta (I use bikers mainly as tank hunters as well as a lord vehicle. I'd also have one squads of Plague Marines with two plasma guns, but that's up to you. As a final note, gift of mutation is nice and fun, but I'd take it off the lord and put it on squad champions for a real laugh.

VotLW is not required on PM's. You can drop some PM's to get a 2nd Heldrake because: Heldrake.

The MoN Lord should probably have Lclaw/Pfist combo. Black Mace is great, but is best on a Demon Prince. If you want to take a Prince instead of the Lord, you could drop his biker bodyguard unit to 3-4 models with MoN and give them Melta Gun x2 (as stated above).

This list is great and fluffy as-is. : ] Would love to play it.

Indeed, VotLW is more or less useless on any of the cult troops because they are fearless.

Apart from that it looks good.

Yeah votlw was just a thought, so plague marines are fearless? I don't have a book I'm thinking of starting chaos do that's why I did that, maybe I could remove the long war, I like all the suggestions I think I will get the plasma and make the bikes vehicle killers, and get rid of long war and drop a few to get another drake and get big zombie squads and give one pm squad plasma thanks guys, this is my first attempt cause I want to start chaos

What armies are you going to be playing against mostly?

Folks always say that Votlw is wasted on fearless troops but, I don't know if people forget but you get Hatred against Marines too. If you do end up in CC whilst say, holding midfield objectives. At Initiative 3, those re-roll misses could win you the combat. I'm not saying keep it on all PM squads but maybe keep it on one or two squads that you are dedicating to midfield perhaps? Perhaps it may be an idea to work out the cost of Votlw in your list and see what you can spend them on if you don't play Marines. Have a 'fall back' list, if you know what I mean?

Just my opinion
