I am starting a death guard army, i was wondering what your favorite army list is ?

With the fairly limited selection Death Guard have, there's not much that's actually bad to take. I have a pretty full DG army, with almost every unit, and the only thing I don't bring out much are the Predator tanks and Land Raider.

*note, I don't have a defiler either.

Marines, a Psyker, Poxwalkers, Terminators, and whatever Daemon Engines you like flavored to your preferences.

Lots and lots of Plague Marines in units of 7 supported by Nurglings in units of 7.

I enjoy playing:

Typhus
Foul Blightspawn
Daemon Prince (with or without wings)
Malignant Plaguecaster (or two)
3x10 Poxwalkers (sometimes make them 20 rather than 10)
3x3 Deathshroud
3x1 Foetid Bloat-drone (usually mowers sometimes spitters)
3x1 Plagueburst Crawler

I sometimes use:

Mortarion
Tallyman
Plague Surgeon
3x1 Myphitic Blight-hauler
1x10 Blightlord Terminator

I should probably finish building and use:
3x5 Plague Marines with all the free melee weapons
1x10 Plague Marines with all the free melee weapons
Rhino to carry around Plague Marines

Basically everything in the base codex that is unique to DG is decent except for a few misses with some characters. Not all of it is amazing, but it is adequate and there is plenty to learn about the game from playing it (especially the importance of movement as you slowly learn how much it sucks to be so slow).

All the non unique stuff in the base codex and via forgeworld is a bit meh. Predators, Land Raiders, Chaos Lords, FW dreads (apart from the Volkite Contemptor), etc.

Currently DG are struggling in the meta, having been power crept for a few years. There are new points coming soon which will hopefully help, but they may not.
