Ready for Eternal War

Rot, Glorious Rot!

Yup, I said it.
Here's what I'm currently building to:

1996

HQ:
Typhus = 230

TROOP:
35x Plague Zombies = 150
7x Plague Marines (Rhino, PF, 2x Plasma Gun) = 258
7x Plague Marines (Rhino, PF, 2x Plasma Gun) = 258
7x Plague Marines (Rhino, PF, 2x Plasma Gun) = 258

ELITE:
6x Terminators (MoN, 1x CF, 6x CbM) = 266

HEAVY:
7x Havocs (MoN, 4x Autocannon) = 162
7x Havocs (MoN, 4x Autocannon) = 162
2x Obliterators (MoN) = 152
ADL w/ Quad-Gun = 100

I already have the Plague Marines, but I need my god damn shipment of Terminators to come so I can start converting them into Death Guard.  Anyone got any ideas on what to do with the Autocannons?  I need to make 8 of them for my Havocs and I'm not sure how.

The idea here is simple:  7s everywhere, Havocs behind the ADL with Quad-Gun joined by the Oblits.  The huge unit of 35x Plague Zombies will go somewhere to claim, contest or hold down and objective, and the Plague Marines will just roll up and be badasses.  No Epidemis and Plaguebearers, sorry.  I'll try to stay away from the cheese until DoC get released in the near future.  Who knows what will change?

Now here's a funny question... Typhus' Zombies rule makes it so Cultists can't take any options.. does that mean I can't increase the squad size either.

If I drop the Plague Zombies, I might just take an extra Oblit and add more Terminators!

Having fun with some fun lists


I've been playing a good amount of 40K over Vassal lately and I've having a good time.  The reason why is because the players aren't uber competitive and I'm getting a lot of play with fluffier and more casual armies.  I have no idea what this means.  Does this mean I'm losing my competitive edge?  Or does this mean I'm seeing 40K as more of a fun game than competitive one?  I don't think its neither because I still follow the same min-maxing mentality with every army I build.  Even though most (if not all) of my lists are min-maxed to all hell, they follow a theme.

Check out the lists I've been rolling with lately:

2000
12 kp

HQ:
Swarmlord = 280
+2x Tyrant Guard (Lashwhips) = 130

TROOP:
10x Genestealers (Toxin) = 160
15x Genestealers = 210
11x Termagaunts = 55
+Trevigon (Toxin, Catalyst) = 185
11x Termagaunts = 55
+Trevigon (Toxin, Catalyst) = 185

ELITE:
3x Hive Guard = 150
3x Hive Guard = 150

HEAVY:
Trygon Prime = 240
Trygon = 200
