Hey guys wanted to get some thoughts on this list. Jeske probably hates it, but still.

HQ:
Typhus: solid HQ, tough warlord (yeah his trait sucks but oh well)

Sorcerer, Terminator Armour, 2x additional mastery: A mastery level 3 sorcerer with 3 rolls on telepathy....because invisible terminators and puppet master riptides are hilarious.

Elites:

6x Terminators, MoN, 5x Combi plasma, Heavy flamer, 6x Axes: This is my lord retinue, can deploy flexibly iin a pinch, is cheap, packs a punch in CC and murders things within 12

3x Terminators, MoN, 3x Combi plasma, 3x Axes: first termicide kill-team, have found that people don't like having MoN terminators in their backfield after they have had plasma shot into their vulnerable units.

3x Terminators, MoN, 3x Combi plasma, 3x Axes: Redundancy is a must for this kind of unit, at the best of times I hit 22 targets at the worst I hit one with 12 plasma rounds.

Troops:

20x PLague Zombies

20x Plague Zombies

10x Cultists, 8x autoguns, heavy stubber

10x Cultists, 8x CCW+Pistol, Flamer

(Thoughts on scoring: While it seems initially week it operates on the understanding that in 3 of the missions scoring either doesn't matter or is boosted by my FA and HS options and in 2 of the other 3 there is a single objective each side. so killing my "scoring" isn't as easy as it first appears.)

Fast attack:

Baledrake

Baledrake

Heavy Support:
2x2 Obliterators, MoN, VotlW

2x2 Obliterators, MoN, VotlW

and thats 1840, have 10 pts but not sure where to put it.

Looks fun to me but terminators Deep Striking in have to be wary of Riptides else they will die to the intercepting str 9 ap 2 blast of cheesiness.

I don't hate it i like the plague zombies typhus is a good investment along with the sorcerer. i would say if possible maybe slim down to 3 troops and make one of them some plague marines? i know wound wise your going from 20 down to 5+ but on a t5 model with feel no pain i think they will last a lot longer then the cultist will that and you would have a strong unit to guard your backfield keep them on foot to save points if you like and their squad size should keep them unharmed.
