L30n1d4s Posted December 1, 2024 Share Posted December 1, 2024 (edited) Looking pretty good so far... faster infantry that are harder kill at range (and have a few tricks for improving their own damage output as well): https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-us/articles/gnz6ekx8/grotmas-calendar-day-1-grandfather-nurgle-brings-gifts/ Edited December 1, 2024 by L30n1d4s Tallarn Commander, Dr_Ruminahui and N1SB 2 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384714-new-dg-detachment/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Officer Doofy Posted December 1, 2024 Share Posted December 1, 2024 Fast and hard to hit, just what the Death Guard are known for! Up next are slow and calm World Eaters followed by quiet and humble Emperor's Children. Stay tuned!

HeadlessCross Posted December 1, 2024 Share Posted December 1, 2024 As I already stated in the N&R thread, I think there's some strong play here. However the current Index detachment is still better. That said I look forward to trying things like Blightlords and a LoV with the Assault enhancement or the Plagueveil on a Tallyman just slowly brining in CP.

I read it as the enemy be so busy with flies everywhere that the DG get a bit closer before battle starts and it makes aiming harder.

DemonGSides Posted December 2, 2024 Share Posted December 2, 2024 Yeah I wouldn't call an early scout move "Fast" in any way. They start in a forward position so the distance is shorter. I like the thematic feeling of a sky being so clotted with flies that the regular infantry get stealth cuz of it. VERY Fluffy. The enhancements are all REALLY good and the strats are good too.

Special Officer Doofy Posted December 2, 2024 Share Posted December 2, 2024 With Nurgle's magic and things like "flies" you can hand wave any detachment bonus and say it is fluffy for death guard. I'm not saying I don't like it or it's not fluffy. Was only making a joke.

Armies are only slow if you purposely build them that way because muh fluff. 3rd Edition Necrons are the biggest example of this as they were actually an incredibly fast army if you actually built it correctly instead of 4 blocks of 20 Warriors with no Monolith.

Plaguecaster Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 I wouldn't mind trying out possessed with the detachment even though they are legends as scouts and stealth on them seems nice I probably will try the new detachment out soon but take a few allied daemons in mainly for plaguebearers to sticky objectives as surprised to say it but almost miss it since lose it with this detachment Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384714-new-dg-detachment/#findComment-6081641 Share on other sites More sharing options...
