I want to hear about Dave's experience with the 6-man DST brick with a Lord of Contagion!

good recap!

I ran a similar list at an RTT a couple days ago, except I ran 2 MBH and 1 flamer drone. No spawn but brought poxwalkers and nurglings instead. Also LoV instead of LoC. Went 2-1 only losing to Forrest Phanton (no. 2 space wolves player in the world)

Did Dave say he used both the rampagers melee weapons into the monolith at the start

Say how does someone get on the discord there

I miss bolter plague Marines. Special weapon squads dont fit DG as well as running them stock. Hopefully with the codex Pm are actually good and not have to patch them with free wargear.

anyone got the link to the discord channel please?

Mate, thank you so much for this series and the fundamentals one. I came back to 40k after playing CSM in the 5th edition and I always loved the plague marines, so DG was an easy choice. How lucky that there is a top DG player putting out such high quality in-depth content for free!! Playing mostly combat patrol now, deep striking Typhus with 20 poxwalkers is funny and I haven’t lost to another box yet, also thanks to all your tips :D Imagine grenade was in combat patrol. But fuck are they hard to paint well!

The best battle report I’ve seen on KZfaq by far. Thank you

Locustar is me. So dropping 3rd Rhino and 2nd 10 man and chars for 3 more dst, 10 cultists, 3 nurg, a beast, and a 2nd drone? Thanks for the suggestions, I'll give it a shot with more action monkeys.

This podcast made me do push into doing my next tournament with death guard! Next weekend be fun!

Is there a heavy blightlord build (20 plus)... i got many of em and i wonder if such a thing is possible or it worth doing. They are so cheap and tuff... but so slow.

Might have misunderstood, was Dave talking about running recover assets fixed? That got patched out day 1 in the PN handbook.

Just a heads up, if you pin the one you left off on both you guys and everyone else can see how far you've gotten!

Alright get this, x4 terminator characters, x30 blightlords, x12 Deathshroud, x2 bloat drones, x10 poxwalkers, x10 cultists

Congrats buddy. Thx for posting!

Great recap. Love listening to your tactics.

Hearing every time that Templars have 5+/6+ Feel no pains makes me feel sad. I wish we had this rule again.

Thoughts on match ups death guard going into imperial knights? of course he has rex amongst other of small types

Love those recaps so much, man! super helpful!

Great example on heroic intervention to mitigate damage!

Great info tips and tricks as always Aiden! You’ve made me a better player ❤

Great review.

Can you guys come up with a scale of 1-10 on how good each death guard unit/model is for each one? With what they synergize best with? I am a brand new death guard collector/player and have a ton of second hand stuff and the combat patrol. I dont know the game very well, nor do I truly understand what is good/bad as far as playing.. other than plague doctor is a joke and plague burst crawlers have just taken a big hit.. which sucks because i just got my 3 set completed. Anyway, I am asking because until I truly understand the game from playing it, I would very much like a rating system from you experienced folks on what is good vs bad and what is the most valuable things to pick for my games. TLDR version: I am derpy Nurgling, and want easy pickings guide for general play until I get good enough/knowledgeable enough for competitive

Awesome!

Layout 7 is wierrd (game 2). I know AoW talked about "lining" the walls and stopping charges on both sides being more than 1" away with the new rules to basically make a cold war in the middle

Love these videos

Wait… no plague bus? What blasphemy is this?!

Would you go back to 3 PBCs? Or have you settled on 2?

submitted in the discord

If we take a 5-man PM squad, what would be the best way to run them? I am so use to running two 10 man pm squads that I feel lost with a 5 man. Also, I have one drone with fleshmower. If I was to take two more, which ones would be ideal?

Going to test out a nasty feeling list 3 putrifiers 1 blightspawn 2 tallyman 3x10 plague marines 2 rhinos 1 land raider Lord of contagion 1x3 Deathshrouds 3 brigands

I feel like you are underestimating the amount of damage a 5 man blightlord unit with a Lord of Contagion does. The rerolls to hit gets you a lot of lethal hits at effective ap -3 with the contagion. With the Flail and the Lord of Contagion, that's a lot of damage that will take out almost any infantry unit and most vehicles. Them coming out of a Land Raider is a solid way to deliver them. Against a T10 2+ save vehicle, the unit does almost 15 wounds on average. Also the MBHs are a fast and durable action monkey in Nexus. Their durability helps them survive the turn.

Brilliant video Aidan!! After watching the first example video I have a question if I may? You rolled a 10 on the charge with the cultists and went round the front custodies to base the ones at the back at the back. I have been playing ‘you have to end your charge to the closest model’ or does this only apply to the pile in? Many thanks dude I’ve learnt so much from your channel already

So thoughts 2 war dogs or knight despoiler?

Carl forgive me 🤦🏼‍♂️ I put my anti infantry ATC list instead of my Morty pressure list 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Do you need cultist and plague marines with Rhinos? They feel like they fill a similar rule. Are Deathshroud dead?

Big Thanks for the Rating of my List (Trollonidas)! Sadly i couldnt be live watching you guys. I somehow always roll bad on Lascannons, so i dont use them... normally the plague heavy bolter also deal some damage to a tough target, thanks to lethal hits. Tallyman is enemy dependent, if i can solo him at home i will. If i have to screen my backfield i attach a 5 PM unit to him and let them stand on home, so they can also punch back. Another thought is, changing the BoN for a DG Sorceror, so if i dont have to mission play, i have a once per game deepstrike blast :)

Kirby 😂 geroff me chair

10/10 lads

Ive had some reasonable success eith blightlords, ten termies are fun man, ten man with lord of contagion actually does damage (just not 390 points worth 😂) But i agree, they are a one use missile as a ten man they will occasionally win you the game, and not actually very good as a 5. But ultimately probably not worth it 😅

So sad that I missed it. Seeing my list from the jump.

Love your work, but it’s really hard to find how to get onto your Discord

Thanks Aidan. Do you think daemons have much of a place now? Wonder if Rotigus or a GUO might work well with Morty in the pressure list?

I actually have been testing a 50 plague marine horde build with 3 plod squads and 3 bloat drones for utility (2 fleshmowers and 1 flamer to protect home objective). It actually worked pretty well and outside of some tactical blunders on my part, it works very well and applies a lot of pressure onto your opponent and overloads them with targets they have to clear. It's a learning curve for me since I"m not used to playing pressure lists, but I think it's absolutely viable and a list that can kill everything on the board.

Very good tips! Doesn't just apply to Deathguard but these basic principles on how to build a Pariah Nexus force can be applied to every other army as well! Much appreciated!

Good review!

Would be good to see these latest episodes on Spotify so one can listen in the car.

What do we think of blightlords now? Maybe a lord of viriluence in a list with multiple rhinos and small blast weapons? Esp if yiyr playing 3 MBH.
