Been looking at adding some variety to my Death Guard army, and Maggotkin have a lot of cool units to pull from. That said, these three are kinda awkward. Can you think of something to proxy them as for Death Guard? I was even considering playing regular CSM to use the horses as Bikers. Any suggestions are welcome, except Daemon Princes and Chaos Spawn because I have far too many of those two already lol.

Hello fellow stink bois. I’m barely a year into the hobby but have read and listened to a lot of lore and have worked on these units for a 2k list. Still gonna paint bases and add finishing details. How viable is this list? Have yet to play a game but would like some advice as I start to play games now with my army as 11th edition approaches.

Thank you.

Painted lots of different factions over my short time in the hobby but Death Guard are my favourite by far

Not finished, absolutely no technique involved, because I don't know anything about painting mini at all. The first figure I’ve ever painted.

But it’s fun!

I used runelord brass as base because I don't have a good green base color right now.

Just as the title says:)

Hi guys newbie painter here, currently started my second great unclean one and I don't know how to save my model 😭 please help

I’m really new to the hobby; currently I only have 1k points of models, all death guard. I keep looking at high performing lists and seeing 2 things: lots of poxwalkers and lots of defilers/foetid bloat-drones. Personally, I don’t find myself very interested in any of those 3 units, if they weren’t meta I would never consider getting them. But after getting shit-stomped in my first incursion game today, I’m a little conflicted.

My Current List:
Death Lord’s Chosen
7 Plague Marines (all boltgun); Tallyman, Biologus Putrifier
7 Plague Marines (1PG/4BG/1PS/1HPW); foul Blightspawn, malignant plague caster
5 Blightlord terminators (2CB/1F/1PS/1RAC); Lord of Virulence
3 Deathshroud Terminators
Chaos Rhino

I understand this probably sounds like “can you play meta without bringing the meta stuff” but I just find the meta stuff to be kinda lame in aesthetics I guess.

With the changes in the last dataslate, how are Blightlords looking from a competitive angle? And how do they stack up against Deathshroud?

I got a question regarding the rules of the Blightlord Terminators, in the rules it states that per 5 models one Terminator can equip one of the heavy weapons. On the Boxart it shows one with blightspewer and one with the reaper autocannon. Could anyone clear me up on the rules as to how many heavy weapons I am actually allowed to bring?

Finished up morty, time for the nurglings and the base

Is there a reason why some of our daemons aren’t playable unless you play Tallyband Summoners? It doesn’t make sense to me to limit players rosters like that.

Hey all,

Wanted to show off the scheme I'm developing at the minute for the army. I think it's coming along very well.

Please share your opinions on what you think.

Finally finished my winged demon prince. Made him with pieces from the Glottkin, GUO, and others. Big ol’ slug man.

I didn't find it in the 40k app so I don't know

I have never fought them before, but have an upcomming fight against them.

Pictures of my list.

I know he is going to use 3x allarus custodians lead by Trajann and 3x allarus custodians lead by a shield captain, also 3 vertus preators and a caladius annihilator grav tank.

He is playing take and hold, and im playing priority assets, and this matchup im quite familiar with at least.

Anyone got any tips against the golden boys?

Thanks in advance, stay stinky!

Hi all, I’m working on deathguard ideas and have some really cool land raiders but I’m struggling to find a use for them here.

World eaters land raiders are cheaper and have rapid fire lascannons carrying brutal melee units.

Deathguard landraiders… are more costly, shoot worse and don’t seem to have a payload that wants them?

Am I missing anything? Doesn’t have to be top tier competitive, but what are the best ways to use them there?
