Special Officer Doofy Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Here is the final version of my list. The Cerberus has done fine work against a mixture of opponents and earned it's place despite being suboptimal competitively. I can also use the Chaos Familiar stratagem to swap out for Death Hex or Prescience on the Prince if necessary. Command points are in short supply but most units are self reliant anyway. Any final advice before I submit the list? Death Guard Spearhead Daemon Prince, Wings, Malefic Talon, Fugaris' Helm, Arch Contaminator, Gift of Contagion Plagueburst Crawler, 2 Plaguespitters, Heavy Slugger Plagueburst Crawler, 2 Plaguespitters, Heavy Slugger Plagueburst Crawler, 2 Plaguespitters, Heavy Slugger Hellforged Deredeo, Butcher Cannon Array, Heavy Bolters, Missile Launchers Hellforged Deredeo, Butcher Cannon Array, Heavy Bolters, Missile Launchers Nurgle Daemon Patrol Poxbringer, Miasma of Pestilence 29 Plaguebearers, Banner, Icon 3 Nurgling Swarms Chaos Space Marines Lord of War Iron Warriors Hellforged Cerberus Heavy Destroyer You'll have to let us know how it does. My only concern is you only have two Troops and ones really squishy but if that's just enough to snake by then the rest of your points are well invested in some crunch!

Wolf Lord Loki Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Yes. As death guard you only have access to the Nurgle familiar from your strategems which leaves you locked in to the Contagion spells. While your Daemon Prince can use a heretic astartes strategem you surely need a heretic astartes sorcerer or access them?

Arufel87 Posted June 29, 2019 Author Share Posted June 29, 2019 No I only need a CSM detachment to unlock the stratagems which in this case is fulfilled by the Cerberus. The Death Guard stratagem is called chaos familiar of Nurgle. The strat in the CSM book stipulates a heretic astartes psyker which the death guard daemon prince clearly is. This is how people end up with warptime on Morty by the way.

Wolf Lord Loki Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Ahhh I see. Fair enough then Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356643-death-guardnurgle-daemons-itc-2k-feedback-required/page/2/#findComment-5339114 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arufel87 Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 So the tournament is finished and I ended up winning 2 losing 3. The cerberus ended up being overkill against certain opponents and a liability against others. I had enough killing power but not enough durability against hardcore lists. I lost heavily to kataphron spam and imperial soup with krast knight and calladius tanks. Maybe the chaos knights will be the way forwards.
