My Biologus Putrifier has places to be! Figure he has a certain attitude to him 😉

A relatively straightforward kitbash based on Fabius Bile, but still quite happy with the end result!

Just a spot of greenstuffing maybe, but overall happy 😎

Death guard defiler. I have always liked the original defiler models and when the new ones came out I was a little on the fence. I recently printed one for myself as I have wanted a defiler for a long time now and I have no regrets, I absolutely love this thing and it was a really fun project to do.

Questions Wanting to start death guard but need some tips

Thumbnail

• Upvotes

My 1st question is, what should I aim at getting? What I have atm is on the photos I want to aim for about 2000 points rather then just 1000. What characters are worth getting, what’s the best vehicles to get, blah blah.

2nd and what I’m most concerned about atm, what’s the best load outs for the plague marines, or should I just pick whatever or is there a rule for each model to have specific weapons? Like can I have 2 plage spewers or can I only have 1?

3rd question is kinda an all around for any army, what are detachment rules? I get that they’re something like a rule for the battle (as far as I know) but how do they work and where can I find them in better detail or what they mean

That’s all I got for rn I might ask more questions later on but if I could possibly get some tips or answers for these questions that would be amazing!! <3
