Hi guys,

I currently play Grey Knights and my friend might be selling me his Death Guard models from the Dark Imperium box. What can you tell me about Death Guard? To help me decide whether I want to just paint the models or actually collect and play an army of them, I'd love to know:

What is their playstyle(s)?
What are their main tactics (attacking, defending, controlling the table etc)?
What are their strengths?
What are their weaknesses?
Are they fun to play?

Thanks

They're disgustingly resilient

Mostly you are rocking the endurance game. Plague marines are a good unit and pox walkers are a great screen. I'd suggest you rhino up for more resilience and grab some heavy support and you'll have a really solid force
