My list for tactical objective game next Sunday. Not a tournament just a fun game. Possibly 2v2 if the same people show up this sunday.

HQ
Typhus

Elites
Chosen-DV load out until I get the bits to convert

Troops
zombie squad x13
zombie squad x13

Heavy Support
Landraider w/havoc and combi flamer
Predator w/ lascannon and side heavy bolters
Defiler w/reaper autocannon and power scourge

putting chosen and typhus in land raider at start and pushing to mid table

I know zombies are unpopular but I was thinking they would be great for holding those close objectives. with FNP they tend to live longer than normal cultists. Pluse melee with a bunch of zombies is awesome.

People spam plague zombies. Paint the chosen green n call them plague marines.

A land raider and a defiler are two very, very expensive vehicles to take at this point value. That's more than a third of your points sunk into two models that don't have all that much firepower.

I would get 6 squads of 10 zombies, send one to each objective, and then have a deathstar unit to draw attention from them.

Typhus and 6X10 zombies is 530 points. That leaves you 670 points for a deathstar to go with typhus.

I assume by deathstar you mean something to draw fire. I see exactly what you are saying. I am going to ammend the list based on models I have with what you have said. Still looking at ways to defeat the inevitable cheap IG armor I will be facing.
Im thinking
Typhus
2x12 zombies(thats all I have ATM)
1x10 CSM squad
2x7 Plague marine squad
1x helbrute
1x predator

I could go a different route with chaos lord in terminator armor instead of typhus and zombies

Thank you for your input.
