Always been tzeentch but they have really gone down hill :( so now I wish to switch to nurgle but not sure how I would do this I have tried with the units below as a sort of test game and I must say about 75% of them lived all 6 turns because of the FNP and the fact first turn was night fighting too so yah for high cover save :D
The models I currently have are.
1 Daemon prince of nurgle
1 Herald Of Nurgle
7 plague drones of nurgle With Instrument (it is a bell and a sword so can be used as a normal Plaguebearer)/banner/Character model
20 plaguebearers With Instrument/banner/Character model
Now the reason I love giving the plague drone the icon is because of there speed to get to where they need to go on turn 1. If you deep strike nurgle plaguebearers they don't need to scatter and that is why I gave the plaguebearers a instrument so they can call in another unit without the need to roll for reserve.
My plan I would love to do is each unit of plague bearers is about 14 to keep it fluffy and just have them come in via deep strike around the drones sad thing is against blast templates there going get nuked but still amusing to see about 2 units of 14 just show up all with a herald with FNP
314 points for Plague Drones (7) with Plaguebringer with Icon of Chaos
Now due to they are Jetpack Cavalry how far do they move and or assault?
70 points for Herald of Nurgle with Locus of Fecundity
152 points for Plaguebearers (13) with Plagueridden with Plague Banner and instrument of chaos
70 points for Herald of Nurgle with Locus of Fecundity
152 points for Plaguebearers (13) with Plagueridden with Plague Banner and instrument of chaos
So far I am 758 points Anyone got advice beyond this? At the moment I believe i am lacking anti air so I might need to get a soul grinder trying to make a 1500 point list.
