Ironstorm missile pod RF battlecannon. Heavy stubber Reaper chainsword This is my first attempt at a 2k death guard list currently sitting at 1695 points. Strategy is pretty self explanatory typhus, nercosis and blightbringers buff the poxies as they close with the enemy. Termies go after heavy hitters, knight kills everything in between. Thinking about dropping a unit of poxwalkers Maybe add some plague marines or more termies Looking for C&C Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/337642-returning-players-1st-stab-at-2k-dg/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekai Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Seems solid enough. I would consider getting rid of the Blightbringers; I have not been impressed with their abilities. You can slightly speed up your poxwalkers, but the zombies are mainly there to screen your (also slow) characters. If you scrap 2 Blightbringers, you can add a blight drone. You still have a few more points, so another drone might be in order for two total. With your remaining points You could add to your terminator unit, or you could get rid of some of their toys so you could squeeze in one more drone. 3x 2d6 auto-hitting flamer attacks is nothing to sniff at, and something tells me their anti-vehicle weaponry will be turned on your knight, so your drones should be able to get nice and close. Necrosius seems like a solid pick. He isn't a great fit for my warband, but having two psyker powers and three (!?) deny the witch attempts is very cool. Between him and Typhus your psychic phase is very strong.

Reapers Due Posted August 4, 2017 Author Share Posted August 4, 2017 Thank you for the suggestions I'll have to add some drones to my to buy list. After I get the knight and walkers. Think some dreads would work in the mean time? Also could a mod kindly move this thread to list discussion forum?
