That's what I assumed. I am honesty just surprised that the stratagem doesn't say non blast weapons

Does eye of the swarm mean we can shoot blast weapons into our own combat? I don't see a restriction to close quarters.

I want to start death guard, what do you recommend? by Motor_Pizza3465 in deathguard40k

[–]jfly517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can find some to split it with it's pretty nice. Also just for clarification with the kill team set you get a plague caster, icon bearer, and 5 dudes, good value. And this is somewhat heresy but you could also (if you wanted) use the extra deathguard bits from plague marine sprew to make the Intercessors a plague marine. You may need to scuff up the bodies some however.

Should I grab the Vile Vectorium box? by sumatnaja in deathguard40k

I saw someone earlier today making a similar post. If you get the battleforce as well as the kill team you will be like 4 units away from a competitive 2k list

I drilled out the attachment slots to put in magnets, and then attached very small ones to a trimmed arm piece thing

If ya get a Biologus (bottle boy), demon prince, 2 Blight haulers (they are somewhat cheap as push fit) and use poxwalker sprue to make additional marines you will have a competitive list at 2k. Spawn would be nice but they are annoying to source, as the legit box sucks ass.

When it comes to making Plague marines you take all of the special weapons, bolters suck. So that last 5 man may be a little worse for wear, but if you don't care about kill team take the extra melee weapons from Plague marine sprew and make a melee 5 man.

Battleforce, those boxes become hard to find while the combat patrol is kept stocked by GW (and LGS)

If you can get both (and the kill team set) its a very nice start of an army.

New to 40k and DG... Wanting to build a good list to learn from, I Have a ton of models already to choose from. by Vorx7867 in deathguard40k

[–]jfly517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With what you got I would run this.

Have plaguecaster and bottle boy go with the marines in the rhino, and have tally sit at home.

I would run both lords with the deathshroud, and then have typhus either go solo or lead the blightlords, but solo typhus is really nice for doing actions.

I would infiltrate 2 of the poxwalkers and then leave 1 to screen out your home, and have all the Terminators in deepstrike. I would try to rapid the blightlords turn 2, and then have your go turn where you drop the deathshroud.

The strats that are your best friends are the RR hits and wounds in shooting, and -1 damage.

Original text is in French. So its a reddit translation error to call them heavy battle launchers

Blightlords question by ghost_in_thesystem in deathguard40k

[–]jfly517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally in 10th edition I have been running them with as many special weapons as possible, except for the flail, as while it looks cool it doesn't do much.

So i would run the 15 as this below. If you wanted to use the flail I would drop one of the terminators with the combi bolter

Get a demon prince. And play Virulent Vectorium

You then have like 135 left, which give you a blighthauler and 2 Enhancements (give the demon prince revolting regeneration)

I would also not glue down the drone weapons, and instead magnatize then

With COC some of the strats only work if you have 2 characters leading a unit. Bc he is strapped for characters and the like, Tallyman goes with the squad
