Probably still Nurgle, but it is a matter of opinion.

Thanks. If slaanesh gets FNP, what does nurgle get?

Slaanesh gets +1 Initiative, the icon (an upgrade) give FNP
Nurgle gets +1 Toughness, the icon gives Fear

Edit: Correction to Mark of Nurgle, It does not give FNP, It gives +1 Toughness

Plague marines get FNP, mark of nurgle is just fear.

Oh alright, thanks for clearing that up. Any special weapons for Nurgle only?

Mark or Icon wise?

Icons = Slaanesh FNP and Nurgle Fear

Marks = Slaanesh +1 intiative and Nurgle +1 Toughness

Does it say anywhere that Plague Zombies count as non-scoring? I heard this numerous times, but Typhus' page makes it seem like they'll still be scoring. Of course, knowing GW, I'm not counting on all relevant rules being on the same page...

Corrected my post. Plague Marines get FNP, MoN is +1T, Icon is Fear

Are Typhus' zombies still scoring? I want to do a zombie horde army, but it might put a damper on things if I have to take allies to have any scoring unit.

They are still (scoring) troops.

Nothing says that Zombies aren't scoring.

Yep^ No real downside to these guys except lack or ranged weaponry.

If you want to run and army of 260 zombies at 2k, have a blast!

How big of a zombie horde can you take?

35 per squad

Make that 420 Zombies at 2k

Do regular Obliterators still come with a Power Fist? Or did those go to the Mutilators only?

Also, any new options available to Plaguemarines? Or same as ever?

Thanks everyone for taking the time to answer Q's.

You pay 50 points for the first 10, then 4 for each additional cultist.

Oblits have fists like before.

Plaguemarines have roughly the same options as before however have knives now standard.

No problem

Oblits have a power fist,

Plagues can get 2 special weapons, 2 plasma pistols, an Icon, and mutations, meltabombs, and some other gear for the champ.

Oblits still have powerfists

Plaguemarines look good. 2 Special Weapons (replace pistol, not the bolt gun), FNP, Fearless, MoN, Blight Grenades (Offensive/Defensive), Krak Grenades, 120pts for the first 4+Champion, 24 pts for up to 15 more

Is there anything special like in SW that you get multiple HQ for each slot?

Nope nothing like that, nor is there a unit like wolf guard or royal court.

Are spawn still an entry? Do they take up a FOC slot this codex, and roughly how much do they cost? Are they as crappy as ever, rules wise?

Spawns are still a Fast Attack, still meh though marking them might be worthwhile, they are a bit cheaper now, plus get a chart bonus

What FOC slot do the Dragons Take?

Daemon princes?

Greater Daemons do they still kill a champion?

Hell Drakes are Fast Attack, Daemon Princes are HQ, Greater Daemons no longer exist, you can get a Greater Daemon via the allies rule

Hi gents, thanks for answering all these questions.

Slightly more meta, who can deepstrike/outflank/play maneuver shenanigans? Are Rhinos now the same cost as loyalist rhinos? And what has leapt out to you lucky people as being particularly cool, exciting and/or awesome list-wise?

Also, there was something in the rumor mill - a scroll or something - that's meant to be pretty exciting, any gen on that or other character upgrades that're new?

And could we get confirmation on the effects of marks/icons for Khorne and Tzeench? Can Bikes/ Raptors/Terminators use all marks and icons? And I'm guessing still no noise marine weapons available for anything outside the basic cult marine unit?

Regards,
Cap'n R

Can mutilators and obliterators be taken in units larger than 3 models?

chosen lost infiltrate
The same units deep strike
Rhinos cost the same and upgrades to them are cheaper

Scroll is pretty useless, only for tzeentch, you get to use one random power each turn but it hits you with st3 ap1 every time

Units of 1-3. Mutators are Elites, Oblits are Heavy
