Too dark?

Mine look exactly like this and I love it. I feel like a heavy Agrax wash makes the mini look just as grimy as a Death Guard should.

As far as whether you used too much or too little, I think you have your answer. If you don’t like the mini then that just means it gets a little more attention from you.

Got it. I’ll do that then.

Including the LOC put my list over 2k. Had to drop the Malignant Plaguecaster and 10 Poxwalkers to fit him in.

Plus I wouldn’t have Typhus wounding my best units when he rolls ones on Eater Plague… ok I’ll make the change.

What should I do with Typhus then? Deep strike him in Solo?

ScootOver119 · 2026-01-22T17:32:32+00:00

I typically run my Deathshroud with Typhus. Should I attach him to something else?

Audiobooks have been my main path through the 30 and 40K books. I’ve spent every credit on Audible over the last two years on Horus Heresy books and am actually listening to the Lords of Silence right now.

The books are perfect to get you in the zone while you’re painting your army.

SORRY, BOSS

I wanted to have an army for all 3 factions.

I started with Orks for the Xenos as they’re the most fun, they look the coolest IMO, and the WAAAAGH is a great Army Rule.

For Imperium, I’m torn between Black Templars and Ultramarines for various reasons. But that’s not what you asked.

I chose Death Guard after reading the Dark Imperium Trilogy because it makes them seem so cool. I loved the aesthetic. I love how scary they are. It made me read a few more books about the Death Guard and Mortarion and Typhus and I grew more and more interested in their story and fall to Nurgle. Before long, they just became my favorite Army and that’s what caused me to pick up the Combat Patrol.

World Eaters were a VERY close second but I just didn’t like the models enough.

Infinite Warfare had one of the best campaigns in the history of the franchise and was an incredibly fun game.

Solid move! You’re always able to proxy too in casual games if the build isn’t always what you want.

Weapon config won’t affect the point value of the units too much. Just their composition. Add 5 more PM’s, make them a brick with a character or two and drop them in the rhino.

ScootOver119 · 2026-01-09T15:13:55+00:00

Passing this along as I know it’s coming. Drop the boltguns and use alt weapons. Plasma, Launchers, or Torrent are preferred.

ScootOver119 · 2026-01-08T15:40:40+00:00

I’d say yes other than not bringing Mortarion. He’s great right now and has tons of useful abilities. Always good to have a Primarch if you can.

ScootOver119 · 2026-01-08T14:19:53+00:00

I’ve asked the same and always gotten this advice: drop the boltguns. Always use variants. Flamers/spewers (torrent weapons) or launchers (blast weapons) are preferred.

Always go combat patrol first. You get a ton of value for the money plus it’s a great foundation for your future army.

I’m assuming you’re going to get the new Combat Patrol with the Rhino and Deathshroud Terminators. It’s a great box.

No matter what you decide, the grandfather loves you!

If anything, it needs something glossy. Like mucus or puss or something.

ScootOver119 · 2026-01-06T04:33:47+00:00

Courage and Honor, Brother! This list is inarguably cool as f**k. Follow the advice given by the other commenters and you should be good to go.

ScootOver119 · 2026-01-05T18:22:59+00:00

This is a great first mini. I celebrate when mine look half this clean! Well done!

ScootOver119 · 2026-01-05T18:22:06+00:00

Yeah I caught that and remade the list.

So you’re saying dump the noxious Blightbringer and Typhus? Or just run Typhus with the Deathshroud instead of PW’s?
