Terminators and one squad of obliterators are in reserves and deep strike. Lord rides with spawns and trying to flank.
Cultists are trzing to camp objectives on mz side of the table.
Plague marines are mid+table objective grabbers.
blight drones will go where they are most needed.

What do You think about that? (my choises was limited by my models in possesion).

It seems a little troop light, and the terminator squad isnt termicidie enough, but otherwise good.

No idea what the blight drones do

Blight drones are quite fragile flyers but have reaper and battlecannon (36'').

I wanted to make some distraction from my troop by making little mayhem behind enemy lines. but true. I can drop one blight drone to add some extra bodies.
Or get 2 blight drones into squadron and take heldrake instead of termies

Blight Drones went up to 150, I'm afraid.

talking from the perspective of facing your army, it's pretty tough. only two things i'd consider changing. firstly i am not too sure of the practicality of blight drones as i've never fought them, but helldrakes are a pain in the behind, for 5 points more a pop it may be worth considering, but again i like the fluff of your nurgle theme so if they're good then keep 'em.

the second thing is your warlord, on a bike by him self with no accompanying unit is too open to being killed early game. i'd suggest a basic lord as warlord and stick him with the cultists on your own objective (think about maybe a 20 strong cultist mob as they're only 90 points). then in keeping with your army taking out a couple of your spawns and putting the extra points towards a flying Daemon Prince of nurgle, rolling on biomancy. it is very very hard to kill a daemon prince and will absorb a lot of firepower away from your obliterators and plague marines.

I would probably drop the LC/PF for a power weapon and BBoS on the lord.
You may want to combine the two squads of cultists into one big pile for more survivability, one small squad in backfield to hold a VP or something such is OK but I'm guessing they will be shot at since you have 2 units of them. The risk of them routing is much lower if you have a big pile of them in cover on an objective than having 2 small ones.

Haven't tried Blightdrones myself, but don't you need 1HQ for allies? I don't think you can ally in troops just like that without a HQ.

Yes indeed they are. Thats a pity because they are such nice models. But they got daemonic possesion and shrouded. Not so bad but with that price drake is better choice...

Blight drone is CSM choice if you take plague marines. I wan't to take them because I'm bored with hellturkey

the second thing is your warlord, on a bike by him self with no accompanying unit is too open to being killed early game.

Warlord will go with spawns as meatshield. I'll try him with BBoS next time

You have the point. I'll take them as one big unit.

Drop Power fist and get Black Mace, turn him into a Death Star, also flesh out the Marine Squads more and get rid of the cultists, they will run or get wiped very swiftly
