If I go second Deathsroud hide from line of site for first turn and protects Mortarion. From then they protect Epidemius and defend from any 2nd turn deepstrikers. If I go first Deathshroud will Deepstrike.

Mortarion is the target of Warptime, Prescience (if I'm against Imperium) and Blades of Putrification. Point him at largest thing on the table.

DP is target of virulent blessing for flat 6 damage on wound rolls of 6. He rides with the drones for the trait to work on their flamers. All can advance together until the Prince can charge

Poxwalkers camp where needed to acrue points, surround the characters.

Thoughts please

Thanks

Thought I would revive

Had a couple of games with a similar list, using a Malignant Plaguecaster instead of the Deathsroud. They went stunningly well, mainly because of Mortarion who gained Warptime and butchered all before him (1 of the games was against a custodes list)

Thoughts anyone?

Blight Haulers seem like a weird choice given the low infantry count. Guessing they're just cheap anti-tank?

Other than that, it looks solid.

Because of their cover special rule?

They are anti-tank, found that they're ignored with the drones and Mortarion in the list.

Yeah I know they have the cover rule, you just don't have much else in the list that benefits from it. They're good little gunplatforms though, especially with so many other big targets to draw fire.

That's the hope, with Epidemius I shoot them last I'm my first turn. That way they have a chance of reroll 1s with the tally, all helps

That also allows me to keep them further away from the DP or Mortarion, and a little closer to my poxwalkers, not that cover on them helps much...
