So far I’ve made several lists, all have been bad. After going 0-9 so far I talked with some competition post game to get their advice along with friends. I think this is a good combat list… but I’m still very new to 9th. What would be some reliable secondary picks? I think spread the sickness would be ok sacrificing 1 model hurts tho…

change up the list a bit.

Malignant Plaguecasters are amazing, especially the one from the second page faction (totally forgot... forsaken or something like that).

The recent change to dropping PBC to 160 a model is rough, its meant to force you to select other units for to the last, but if you are careful, you can make sure no other units are over 160, and still have your PBCs as the to the last target.

Considering 0-9... Lets tweak your list a little bit.

Lord replaced with malignant caster with the mortal wound relic
Prince... make him really hard to hurt with the relic and trait that make him tougher, and better armor, drop the wings

Take 1 plague marine units, then you can take 1 cultist unit and 1 poxwalker unit. Make them all minimum size, no options needed. (all they are there for is secondaries)

Not sure what good the biologus is for but if you take the foul blightspawn and a max unit of blightlords with reaper autocannons, and also drop the plaguemarines to another unit of pox walkers.... you'll also hve a very good target for the tallyman (with his relic)

Myphitc Blight haulers are good, do you have a third one?

Do you have blight drones?


To the Last is still a good choice
Nachmind Rettrive Data can be okay, but you could also run less poxwalkers and go with raise banners.

The third one is always hard. Its situational more than the rest. If you ahve 3 blight drones, I'd go with enaage on all fronts. if you squeezed in a 3rd psycher you could try one of the pyscher related ones.

Plaguemarines sadly (and I have like 40 of them).... really don't know what they are good for in 8th or 9th. Too expensive for what they offer.



***Spread the sickness is fun if you run poxwalkers... you kill a few, then spend a cp to bring them back the next turn, and place the new ones further up the field, basically giving the unit a speed burst for a turn.
