I am a 40k player looking to get into AoS. I thought it would be easier to start as Nurgle Daemons as I play Death Guard in 40k and I have a lot of Nurglings, some Plaguebearers, and some Daemon Princes already. I was wondering about a few things:
1. Do Nurgle Daemons use the Maggotkin battletome, or the Daemons of Chaos battletome? Or both? I know Maggotkin is new and that Daemons is an old one, I wasn't sure if Daemons was even being redone or if it would be handled differently this time. If you can go with either battletome, what are the pro and cons of each? I'm leaning towards Maggotkin just because I will probably end up getting Blight Kings next.
1a. If they are playable with the Maggotkin tome, are Nurgle Daemons good when combined with Blight Kings? Never played AoS and I don't know a lot about building an army.
2. Are straight Nurgle warbands any good competitively?
3. Are there are any good Nurgle builds that utilize a ton of Nurglings? I have 18 models, so 6 units of 3, and I really love the slimy, bitey, dodge balls of doom.
4. Any tactics/strategies that I should consider using?
5. I used Morghast Harbingers, which are from the Death faction, as 40k Daemon Princes with Malefic Talons. Used lots of Typhus Corrosion to make the armor look good and Nurgley. Since they are AoS models for a different faction, I didn't know if people would be cool with that or not. What do you think?
I appreciate any help, thanks!
