I am building a Chaos Pluage Fleet for a Campaign we are going to play here.
the other fleets are Imperial, mechanicus, Tau, eldar, chaos and meybe more.

My list is based on long range fire and counter assaults.

“Plague Fleet, Cadaver’s End”

Despoiler Class Battleship 400
2 Hades Class Heavy Cruiser 400
2 Murder Class Cruiser 340
2 Carnage Class Cruiser 360
2 Devastation Class Cruiser 380
3 Infidel 120

If any one of you got any tips or changes on the list plez point them out.

The list is pretty well balanced, not particularly strong or weak against a given race, but that's what you want for a campaign.

You don't have a fleet commander (unless that comes with the campaign) and I might swap out one of the Hades for a few more infidels, but that's just me.

I dont lika Escorts soo mutch and I dont want to have reley too mutch on the infidels too do ther jobb, they are more lika a bonus if they actully bring down a big pray. at first I was in to the Acherons insted of the Hades, but then I notice the same Lances effect in the front arc that I was after in the Acheron.
in the beginning i was going fore at least 6st Idolators but settled to mostly cruisers.

The fleet commander is free in the campaign and marks and such will be gaind in pace with the campign.

Another thing that resently was brought up was one of the guys that is a bit bihind is probobly going fora an Imperial or Mechanicus fleet with max nova cannons, has any one played a campaign were ther is an house rule fore a maximum naumbers of nova cannons?
some of the players think that ther shuld be an maximum of 2-3 in 2000pts campaign, wath do you think?

Agreed, Chaos escorts are mostly crap, and I usually only take Infidels for torpedoes if I have spare points. You should pair each Hades with a Murder since they work together well.

Most people usually play one Nova per 500 or 750 pts.

The thing I have done now is to order all the ships I will need and I have named them too

“Plague Fleet, Cadaver’s End”

“Immoral Onslaught”
Despoiler Class Battleship

“Bloodshed”, “Abusement”
2 Hades Class Heavy Cruiser

“Gorgeous Cramp”, “Filth Remains“
2 Murder Class Cruiser

”Dissolution”,””
2 Carnage Class Cruiser

”Infection”, ”Bloated Sheep”
2 Devastation Class Cruiser

“Maggots of Barbarus”
3 Infidel

The second Carnage still lacks a name but I think I'll figur it out in time.

Here are some pictures of my finished plague fleet. I really like the way my Despoiler turned out.

I think you need some launch bays. Especially if you are facing a ordinance heavy fleet. you can try and shoot some down, yes, but thats only going to work for so long.

He has two devastations and a despoiler. In case you didn't know, those have lots of launch bays.

This is the actual list I am playing but I have some ships on the side fore regular games or reinforcements.

“Plague Fleet, Cadaver’s End”

Ships on the side; 2 Slaughterers, 3 infidels
I am actually considering buying one more Cruiser pack so I can build a Devastation and one more Slaughter.
