Whats your plan with the zombies?

Tarpit up the board, camp objectives. They're fearless and FNP, so you need S6 or better shooting to deny them a save. 35 dudes is a lot of dudes, in close combat, you'd probably put the hurt on them, but 35 wounds takes a while to achieve, even if hitting on 3's wounding on 3's.

You could always drop one unit of Zombies and add another pair of Obliterators, another unit of Nurgle Bikes, or a unit of Nurgle Spawn.

Oblits are there to take on Flyers and Vehicles, so might need another pair of those???

i would try going a little lighter on zombies, 25-30 per pack seems plenty to me. and get another heavy choice in there. another two oblits, or even just a AC/LC pred. So many good heavy choices.

I run into the same problems with my list in that even with typhus out there and fist champs in plague squads, any dedicated melee characters/units will rip through your stuff fairly handily. No real answer to TH/SS termies.

You do have a ton of scoring, and not too many easy kill points. I'de be tempted to go sans rhinos, add another unit of oblits, put my plague marines on the ground. cover the board so flyers have a hard time and just shamble forward.
