Hi all,

I have a main Tau army from when they came out and own all codexes but been out of the game for a few years.
Hobby wise i've been more active (converting, painting,...) just not playing much.

I picked up de Dark Vengeance starter box last year to start building a Khorne Deamonkin army.
I put everything together except paint them: I have the 20 Cultists, converted the Chosen to Possessed (Khorne Deamonkin mandatory), buying a box of Warhounds to make cheaper Fleshhounds and having the Deamonkin Codex.

Now that the new starter set hit, i'm just loving those Nurgle miniatures and Khorne Deamonkin doesn't excist anymore, i'm in a dilemma => do i go Nurgle or keep Khorne?

1/ My fleshound problem if going papa Nurgle:
If i would go the route of Nurgle i can still use the Cultists, Hellbrute and Possessed but what about the Fleshounds (converted warhounds)...
A full Deathguard army can't use fleshounds. Can i convert the Fleshounds into something Deathguard can use?
Or do i need to go undivided so i can use both the fleshounds en the Nurgle mini's that come in the new starter set?

2/ Plaguebearers:
Do they need to be humanoid looking? Or can you go creative like ... converting some Fleshounds

Thanks in advance for my noobish questions. I know Tau but not Chaos.

Go undivided! then you can throw in cultist troops as side dishes and switch things around as you wish later on.
