So I have a game on Tuesday against Death Guard. All I know is that he has Daemon Princes and Nurgle Daemons and maybe some Daemon Engines.

Either way the idea is to put the Bladeguard and Lieutenant in the Repulsor and push them up the board with the Aggressors and a Chaplain behind while I use the Outrider Warlord trait to move my Ravenwing up the board quickly and try to get my Deathwing Knights in combat as soon as possible.

If you’re doing bladeguard I’d do the cap, Lt, squad and a something - the Judiciar, an apothecary or the BG Ancient in a shield dome Impulsor. Repulsors are just too expensive and too fragile.
