Pretty lame title, I know, but as of right now, most of the upcoming CSM info has been released to the public. Just in case you guys have been living under a rock the last couple of days, check it out here.
So what's the point of his post? Well, I just wanted to think outloud and explore some options I have as a Death Guard player. Now that I know the Plague Marines in the codex will be 24ppm, gain Plague Knives (4+ Poison) and keep everything else (-1 Ld I think, but gain the option to upgrade to Veteran), I think it's time to develop some lists. Keep in mind that one of the most intriguing things int he upcoming codex is the fact that Typhus will be able to make Cultists Zombies. I don't know the exact wording on the zombies yet, but if they count as scoring, things are going to be pretty disgusting. They keep basic Cultist stats but gain FNP, Fearless and Slow and Purposeful.
Hmm.. what kind of army should I field?
Let's see..
For larger armies, I think I'll go with this:
Typhus w/ 7x Terminators, Mark of Nurgle, CbPlasma
Full unit of Cultist Zombies
3x-4x 7-man units of Death Guard, Plasma Guns, Power Fists
Epidemis, 7x Plaguebearers
1x 7-man unit of Havoc with ACs, manning a ADL/Quad-Gun, Mark of Nurgle
2x unit of Oblits, Mark of Nurgle (yes, they can take Marks!)
I don't like the new dragon looking dog mechanics, so the only new models I'll probably pick up is the plastic Raptors. What do you guys think?
