I've been away from the hobby for a while and I could use some help on which books I need for building a list.

I'm going to play Death Guard and I'm not sure which books to pick up so I can get all the units. I'm not really interested in fluff, just the books to pick up to get the rules. I'm guessing the "red" books are the best way to go, though Forgeworld isn't really clear which book to get. There is a"legions" and an "army list" book. Do I need both, neither and something else?

Thanks!

These Red Books.

The general Space Marine Legion rules and units are in Legiones Astartes: Age of Darkness Army List. You need this for the 30K rules and the generic units and wargear descriptions.

Death Guard specific Legion rules are in Legiones Astartes: Age of Darkness Legions. This has the specific rules for Death Guard, including their Primarch, a couple special units and special characters.

Good luck!
