Going to a tournament in a few weeks. Lots of action monkeys. Contagion to slow my foes. Options to turn off rerolls in the centre where my blightlords and support characters hang out. Demon prince buff the mbhs. How can I improve this?

if you got zero support for plaguemarines you can swap one unit out to get a unit of cultists, then you can max out your blightlords. I would probably run entropy cannons on the PBC... I mean I would never run without entropy cannons. I like reaper autocannons on blightlords. Hows that?

What's the relic on your LoV? I used to run a Plague Surgeon in my list of x2 squads of 10 plague marines and I found I didn't get much use from it. Blightspawn has always worked better for me.
