Hello all! I have been following this forum for quite a few years now but I just now decided to post after losing about 8 games over this weekend with the new rules. I am starting a Nurgle CSM army and I cant seem to make things work. Now I know some of you have feelings whether or not this can be done. I am just trying to get a list together that can win some games but I am not looking to purposely table opponents or try to compete with the new daemon lists etc. So here goes:

HQ -

Typhus
Warlord

Troops -

Plague Marines x7
x2 Plasma Guns
Rhino w/ Havoc Launcher

Plague Marines x7
x2 Plasma Guns
Rhino w/ Havoc Launcher

Plague Zombies x30

Plague Zombies x30

Plague Zombies x30

Fast Attack -

Heldraker
baleflamer

Heavy Support -

Obliterators x2
MoN

Obliterators x2
MoN


So that nets me in at 1584 so I have quite a few points left to spend. I like the idea of a Nurgle Lord on bike with the black mace accompanied by a unit of Nurgle bikers. I was also running a Nurgle Prince with wings but he never even made half of his points back in any game as he was a target from turn one. I also like the idea of a Nurgle Spawn unit.

However, the one thing I cant figure out, is what to do with Typhus? Do I just put him in with a unit of zombies? Do I take a unit of Nurgle Terminators in a LR? Thoughts and ideas definitely welcome!

How are you losing? That is a classic cookie cutter list that should win.

If you dont like typhus with 30 fnp wounds then risk him in oblit squads

Typhus+2 oblits=fearless

Oblit=singelton ignore ld

Oblit=singelton same as above
