Yeah that does come to a whopping 2079 points of Nurgle I've suddenly acquired. And like all good addictions I cannot stop there. I really should round this out to 3k. So asking you what is best way to round out my humble offering to Papa? I'm thinking 20 more Plaguebearers as a start. But what after that? Like should I get a Blight-hauler and/or Plagueburst just to have one everything so to speak or focus on making it a bit more competitive with 3 x Crawler and/or Morty?
 

Honestly according to what you already have the first things I'd add at such a point level would be a GUO and Mortarion. If there's a place for big center pieces in an army then it's definitely at those points if not earlier. ^^

 

Your army is also extremely infantry heavy so some vehicles would probably make sense. DG Drones and the T8 tank but also Rhinos for the Plague Marines.

I'm not a huge fan of the GUO model and I hate how nerfed Rhinos have become in this edition. Building and converting is my favorite part of the hobby and so I'm don't want to go with models I wouldn't end up playing with. Essentially wasting time I could have spent on some thing like my current center piece. Thank you for the suggestions though.

edit - I should also note that I don't play in a soup meta. So more competitive is a relative term.
