I am thinking about starting a Death Guard army, mainly because of my "conquest"-subsciption, but also because there is no DG in my group (and never was).

Unfortionateley, I dont have any experience playing with or against DG.

I have got all the DG models for the conquest-magazine (+the option to get doubles from my GF). I also own the codex and an unbuild Mortarion (I like big models).

Could some one pls help me with a small list for 500 or 1k games, so i can get used to them?

Well, depends on how you want to play, but most DG lists have Plague Marines, Poxwalkers, and a few Foetid Virion units. HQ depends on play style but for lower point games the Malignant Plaguecaster is agile and inexpensive. Daemon engines are great so maybe:

Malignant Plaguecaster 95pts
Plague Surgeon 75pts

Ranged Plague Marines 145pts
Champ with PG and PF
1 Launcher, 1 Spewer, 2 Bolters

10x Poxwalkers 50pts

Foetid Bloat-drone with lawnmower 135pts


If you want a little speed, you could also get a Rhino for everyone and leave some jerks in the backfield to hold objectives:

Malignant Plaguecaster 95pts
Plague Surgeon 75pts

10x Cultists 50pts
10x Poxwalkers 50pts

Melee Plague Marines 150pts
Champ with PP and PF
1 Flail, 1 Cleaver, 1 Bolter, 1 Icon

Rhino 80

Thanks for the Info. I guess I know which models to paint first then
