Just wanted to share this list

I have had a lot of success with this list the last few months . It was originally designed for beaky 3 GT  in tampa but I ended up not being able to attend . It did win the next tournament I played in ( with decent opponents in attendance ) . It went through  eldar wave serpent spam , eldar + wraith knights and wraith based necrons  ( all 3 players I drew were past tournament winners including 2 who won doubles at crucible Orlando last year , beaky con and crucible are the biggest annual GTs in Florida ).

1 key thing is you have to deep strike oblits and choose targets carefully

2000 point CSM

Typhus

27 x Zombies

7x plague marines ( 2 x melta guns , Rhino, Dozer blade)

2 x Obliterators (MoN)

1 x Obliterators (MoN)

1 x Aegis ( comms relay)

wrote a whole review before reading that you were just sharing your amazing list and that you've won with it a lot. Whoops. That would explain why I didnt really have much to say

I finally conceede, CSM needs 3 heldrake to be competative.

2 Turkeys and 5 Spawn w/MoN works much better.

2 turkeys and the bikes w/ MOS is another option...but yeah


I can put together a B+ tourney list w/ noise boys...

Sucks against monstrous creature lists like nidzilla and wraithspam, though

Oh man your review was FANTASTIC, I had read it last night and was just logging on now to respond. I just remembered the questions, one was how do I prevent the zombies from getting shot up. I don't that's what they are they are for. Its nearly impossible to kill em to the last man as I snake the formation behind cover.
The other question was where does Typhus go. depending on the scenario in one of the three hordes. left flank, middle or right flank. I tend to press that unit forward. It takes the pressure off the plague units. The army is designed to be able to lose any one type of unit and it not matter much.

3 heldrakes are better, it tends to tip things my way. I often have 2 shot out quickly only to the have the third wreck house.
