HQ:
Typhus
Summoned Greater Daemon

Elites:
4 Terminators; 1 w/Chain fist; LandRaider

Troops:
7 Plague Marines: Plasma, Plasma, Champion Upgrade; Rhino E.Armor
7 Plague Marines: Plasma, Plasma, Champion Upgrade; Rhino E.Armor
7 Plague Marines: Melta, Melta; Rhino E.Armor

Heavy:
Vindicator: Demonic Possession
Vindicator: Demonic Possession

I know there has to be some weak points all over the place in this list? Any suggestions. I prefer to run with Typhus (I know he is expensive).. I kind of went with PlagueMarines because of him.. So any list working around him would be great.

Thanks Looking forward to all responses.

Also, you only have three Champions which the Greater Daemon can Possess. That's pretty risky, even if they are all Champions of Nurgle. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407623.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407623.page GMT 1750 DeathGuard (New to CSM)
But i maybe wrong, i only fight against them not with them.

if you can find the points, go for 10 bikers with mark of nurgle, unstoppable]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407624.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407624.page GMT 1750 DeathGuard (New to CSM)
Vindicators have a Demolisher Cannon, not a Battle Cannon.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407625.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407625.page GMT Re:1750 DeathGuard (New to CSM)

You think 2 Champions will be risky before the greater daemon pops out? On Average he should pop out around turn 3.. I think it will take time before someone will chew through 2 squads of Plague Marines.. Most of the time, they wont see enemy contact until turn 3.. unless folks are DSing.

On a Side note; I already own 2 Soul Grinders.. you think people will gripe Im running my SGs as Defilers? Actually I dont like Defilers Models, but the SGs are Tight!

Looking forward to responses.

My First run this list they had Fists.. But i thought what if a GD possesses them? That would be a waste of 25 points.. Then i thought well I could give just 1 of them fists. Then I would sub consciously limit what Champion my GD will possess.. i want him to be somewhat where I need him, not be thinking "Damn I just wasted that fist, but I needed that GD is best in that area"..

You feel me?

Taking Soul Grinders as Defilers seems fine so long as you trade the Twin-Linked Heavy Flamethrower and the Reaper Autocannon for extra Close Combat Arms. In that configuration the Soul Grinder is most WYSIWYG like the Defiler.

As for the Champions, it really doesn't take that long to chew through seven Plague Marines if you're using the right equipment (Plasma Cannons, Starcannons, Plasma Rifles, etc). Still, it looks like a handy army, though fast-moving Eldar might run circles around you. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407653.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/407653.page GMT Re:1750 DeathGuard (New to CSM)

haha, you see I threw that back vindicator in there; I have the model so I wanna try to use it, or I will feel dirty wasting 30$.. However, I managed to squeeze another Champion in for an additional option for the greater daemon. I plan to play this list Very Aggressive, and try to put the heat on early; the only unit that wouldnt be soo aggressive will be the defiler, Ill keep him walking and shooting Ord, while hanging back.

Looking forward to your responses;

I woud take out land raider and typhus, switch typhus with demon prince mark of nurgle and nugles rot or gift of chaos. replace the land raider with another plague marines squad,take out the greater demon and spend the points on 1 more termy and a rhion for the extra squad.

I would go with something like this:

HQ

demon prince
mon,nurgle's rot,wings.
165

Elites

5 terminators
mark of nurgle,5 combi-meltas.
225

Troops

7 Plague marines
2x plasma,champ,power weapon.

7 Plague marines
2x plasma,champ,power weapon.

7 Plague marines
2x melta,champ,powerfist.

7 plague marines
2x melta,champ,powerfist.

Heavy support

vindicator
demonic possesion
145

vindicator
demonic possesion
145

Rhino

Rhino

Rhino

Rhino

i think thats about right

Just what i'd do.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/409717.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/220278/409717.page GMT
