Havocs x5, Autocannon x4, Mark of Nurgle. 130 pts


1727 points total.

And, why the hell not, let's see how badly this bombs on the Astro Comp Score.

-1 for second elites
-1 for third elites
-1 for forth elites (plague marines native to elites)
-1 for a duplicate heavy support
-1 for more than 300 points of HQ
-1 for each full 100 points of HQ over 300 (only one full increment over)
-1 for less than 300 points of Troops
-1 for less than 200 points of Troops (only half the points of the Plague Marines actually count here)
-1 for more than 300 points of Elites
-1x3 for each full 150 points of Elites over 300 (FoC Swaps only count half points towards this, right?)
-1 for more than 150 points of Dedicated Transports

Grand total of: 7/20 comp score, hard fail! Would have been 6 if not for the fact that all my flier points are in a single model. Possibly even lower depending on if the Land Raider still counts towards Heavy Support even though it is taken as a Dedicated Transport.

as far as killy goes, its actually not a horrible list, i do have ask why you would bother with Typhus if your only taking 11 zombies?

nurgle lord on a bike or even a slanesshi lord on a steed in with those raptors? scoring noise marines ftw?

I think Mike has the right of it. Not a bad list, but you are losing out on taking Typhus just for a handful of plague zombies.


As for the Astro scoring a couple of notes. First you are taking a 1730 list in a comp built for 1500. Also a couple of incorrect deductions.

-1 for second elites
-1 for third elites
-1 for forth elites (plague marines native to elites) does not apply to FOC swaps
-1 for a duplicate heavy support
-1 for more than 300 points of HQ
-1 for each full 100 points of HQ over 300 (only one full increment over)
-1 for less than 300 points of Troops

-1 for more than 300 points of Elites
-1x3 for each full 150 points of Elites over 300 (FoC Swaps only count half points towards this, right?) You only have 234 native to elites plus 87 from half your plague marines equals 321. The land raider and rhino both count as Dedicated Transports since they do not occupy a FOC slot.
-1 for more than 150 points of Dedicated Transports

Your comp works out to 11/20. Still not awesome, but then again if you took out the demon prince and put in a Slaaneshi lord you'd gain another couple of points of elites and some troops back.

But them when would I ever get to field the Daemon Prince? lol

Apotheosis ftw!

There's a reason I'm working on building so many princes, but I would like to get some of them out reliably.

Holy Autocannons!

<3 Autocannons.

Well, if I have that many built, why not field them once in a while?

Good news everybody! I'll have actual Chaos Terminators built in time for the playoffs, so a few of them will be WYSIWYG with axes! Anyone sporting options like Chainfists will simply be assumed to be swords for the purposes of gameplay.
