I'm thinking about swapping a TSons Prince for a Nurgle Prince. While they can't get buffed to the same levels, I can use the second Nurgle power and the reroll aura to make my PBs a super UNIT. If the Prince sits next to the Nurgerald he'll be S8, and can just be a charge deterrent/countercharge.
At that point, I might also drop the Scrivener and instead take a Sorcerer, since I want all those Tzeentch powers! However, that would significant downgrade the threat output of the Virus Bomb.

So it would look like this

Hello,

I would not take so much auras characters if your plan is to deepstrike all thoses «bombs» with Denizens of the Warp because you will have hard time to be in range w/o over exposing your characters. Unless you deepstrike buffer characters too but it may cost you a lot of CP and need a double check about reserve points.

I wouldn't swap the Tson prince out. They're just too good compared to everything else. I don't onow whether spoilpox is worth it for one unit of plaguebearers, at 95 points he's needs to be buffing 2 units imo. You could drop him and bilepiper to get another nurgle daemon prince in there if you wanted?

The Plaguebearers aren't a dropped bomb...they're more of a time bomb. They do start on the field, leaving my opponent to shoot at those (usually at -2BS), or some Nurglings.

The Scrivener gives me an extra 4" of movement on the PBs over turns 1-2, which, you're right, is a pretty expensive buff at 95pts.

I can't drop the Bilepiper--since that units takes so many casualties (being really the only viable target for several turns), I really need that extra chance at Blinking.
