DG army starting from Conquest

Recommended Posts

So I have my limited collection of newer Death Guard models from Conquest and I'm trying to set myself a goal for New Years - figuring out a small cohesive force that I can finalise, build up, and get painted before all my lovely DG paints go dry!  Your help would be very much appreciated please!

 

I have:

 

Typhus

Tainted Cohort (x2 sets)

Plague Champ

Plaguecaster

Blightbringer

Lord of Contagion

14x Plague Marines

2x Foetid Bloat Drones

2x Plague Burst Crawlers

2x Rhinos

2x Daemon Princes w/wings

 

Ideally I'd like to limit any additional purchases to a minimum (cost wise) since this whole collection was pretty cheap and staying small.  I sadly missed out on the Biologus Putrifier, Foul Blightspawn and Myphitic Blight Haulers (and boy am I kicking myself!), but I've got my eye on auctions if any come up cheap (so I might end up with one of them if recommended).  I'm thinking it'll be wise to grab the next Conquest issue with 10x Poxwalkers to use with Typhus and as chaff etc, but beyond that I was really looking to get a box of Blightlords for a 10-man squad using some of the Cohort models as a sort of anchor or centre piece etc.

 

Many of the lists and recommendations use the vehicles in 3's etc, the only feasible one at this point is adding a third FBD.  The third PBC or trio of Myphitic Blight Haulers are just tipping my budget before grabbing anything else (unless I can unreliably source them through back issues of Conquest?) - so I'm hoping for ways to make a feasible list without them please.

 

Though I have the BRB, I still need to pickup the DG Codex, but maybe something along the lines of:

 

HQ choice of Plaguecaster / Necrosis / Typhus

Daemon Prince of nurgle w/wings

10x Poxwalkers

2x PM unit of 7 (2x BL)

10x Blightlords (2x flails, axes/combis and probably 2x BL?)

2x FBD +spitters

2x PBC +spitters

So I got lucky and managed to pick up the Biologus Pustrifier and Foul Blightspawn along with a 3rd Foetid Bloat Drone for a great price.

 

Has anyone got any good ideas on converting Flails for the ETB / DI DG models - such as from the Marauder Horsemen sets ?
