I don't actually have a list for a Nurgle Monster Mash, but was interested in developing one through the help of Dakka Dakka. I wanted to come up with a mono-nurgle list (around 1-1.5k), based around GUO's + DP's, that could still remain semi-competitive (not losing all the time) + fun.

So far, I was thinking -

Great Unclean One x2
Psyker Mastery 3
1 Greater
1 Exalted
For a 580 pt chunk of an army.

For troops - I was looking at 2 naked squads of Plaguebearers, deepstriked onto objectives/ targets by a roaming swarm of Plague Drones.

I don't really know how I'd fit DP's to remain useful with the GUO's, possibly make them FMC's.



Anyone got any ideas on how to build this list, or can help do so?
Also, anyone know what's an optimal fit for DP's to go with GUO's?
Anything else helpful?

Best dp is flying with black mace and power armour. Slaughters like a boss

Well the whole idea of MCs and FMCs is that they are hard to hit when flying, have AP 2 attacks, and the ability to kill large amounts of both armor and infantry b/c of their smash attack.

So...the general strategy is to have 5 MCs, or as many as you can.

for 1615 pts, you can have
2XGUO with ML 3, 1xgreater, 1xexalted
3XDaemon Princes of Nurgle with ML 3, 1xgreater, 1xexalted

so for a 2k list id go from there to get some plaguebearers...

for 1100 pts, you can have
GUO with ML 3, 1xgreater, 1xexalted
3XDaemon Princes of Nurgle with ML 2

that leaves you 400 pts for troops. From what ive gathered 50 pts spent on 2 ML levels is better spent than 50 pts on rewards. Gotta get that iron arm.

Sooo for a 2k

2x GUO, ML3, 1 Greater each, 1 Exalted each
580pts

3x DP Nurgle, Flight, Warp-Forged Armour Each ML3 each, 1 Greater each, 1 Exalted each
1020pts

Plague Drones x3
Plaguebringer, Greater Reward
Icon of Chaos
166 pts

Plaguebearers
Plagueridden, Greater Reward
115pts

Plaguebearers
Plagueridden, Greater Reward
115pts

It gets the maximum number of MC's, and has 2 squads of troops ready to deep-strike with the Plague Flies. How effective would the list be?
