Aspiringchaoschampion Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Hey guys so i was planning a small allied detachment of Nurgle daemons to my nurgle themed marine list and I was comparing these 2 Kugath and the regular unclean one now I know the generic GuO is better (hes almost always my Warlord for my Daemons) but i was wondering is there any point to Kugath his only real unique abilities is his warlord trait his ability to heal nurglings and the ability to throw a poisoned large blast. so is there ever any point to taking this guy Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307291-kugath-is-there-any-point-to-this-guy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozo69pd Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 That is his purpose, heal nurglings while marching up (the nurglings can give him cover as an intervening model for a nice cover save too) and do a crappy shot while marching. Which if you take away psychic powers is more than GUO usually do... but pretty much my GUO just sit on a point and summon spam.

Shubniggurath Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 He's not worth it, IMO. You're pretty much always better off with a GUO with mastery lvl 3 and 2 rewards. He'll march up the table unmolested (I stopped putting him in reserve after he failed to come in before turn 4 for a few games...). He's not terrible, but there's not many named characters in our codex that is worth taking over a regular HQ.

BetterOffShred Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 GUO better every time as Shubniggurath stated. Give him max ML and 2 greater gifts, and he's basically unstoppable. My fatty usually does pretty well in most games, soaking up all kinds of fire and then crushes in CC. -Brett Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307291-kugath-is-there-any-point-to-this-guy/#findComment-4037943 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwarsh41 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I always bring 2 units of PB with instruments when I have a GUO in my army. All 3 units in reserves, and it gives my GUO essentially 3 rolls for reserves. PB also have icon, so two chances for a no scatter within 12". I've looked at Kugath, but I just can't see him doing any better. I think I would rather take Mammon, the FW T7 daemon prince with the poison flamer if I wanted nurgle Character.
