Okay, here's how this will work:

The idea is to create a fun, interesting, detailed and funny army history by asking many people to contribute to it.
The army in question is a Nurgle - based CSM warband, named: "Death Bringers".

The plan is to create the background in two ways:

1) General information. This will encompass the warband's heroes, main makeup, tactics and favoured allies. These must follow the 6th ed ruleset (e.g. they cannot ally with GK).

2) A timeline of events. Similar to in any codex, this will be a series of dates and events, starting with the warband's creation.

As people post, I'll try to edit the additions to my post, to keep track of everything.

I hope that this thread will bring out some hilarity, and create a fun army background/fiction.

I'll start:

Adding to section 1:
The Warband:
Spoiler:

Name: Death Bringers
Warmaster: Pyros Deathwish
Homeworld: [Or they could be a roving pirate fleet]
Colours: Various shades of green and brown with silver.
War Cry:
Patron God: Nurgle

Heroes:
Spoiler:

1) Warmaster Pyros Deathwish
Warmaster Pyros was the 1st company captain of the Ultramarines in the early M35, until [heretical event?]. Deathwish wears Terminator armour, pulsating with many plagues of Nurgle, and wields a great scythe, with which he strikes down his foes.

2) *A Hero*

etc.


Main Warband makeup:
Spoiler:

The Death Bringers are composed largely of followers of Nurgle...


Tactics:
Spoiler:

The Death Bringers favour bringing large contingents of plague marines, armed with specialist weapons...



Adding to section 2:
Spoiler:


007.M35: Captain *Ultramarine-sounding name from which the warmaster's name can be derived* of the Ultramarines first company is forced to form a pact with Nurgle in order to ensure his company's survival, when they become isolated from the Imperium whilst fighting a huge Waaagh! on the other side of the galaxy from Ultramar.

014.M35: Captain *Name* stands victorious against the Orks after a gruelling seven-year battle for survival, but at a great cost to his soul.


So far, I've just added the basic outlines of the warband, and haven't yet put in enough for any laughs, but I plan to get there
