Player: Harlequin’s Caress, Shuriken Pistol . . Plague Champion: Boltgun, Plague knife, Power fist . Three full units, armed to the teeth with special weapons, present an enormous wall of power armoured wounds to chew through, and thanks to the array of buffs the list brings alongside them, they’re no slouches on the offence either. Admittedly it is still heavy on Terminators, with a full unit of each flavour, but the big story here is how heavy it goes on Plague Marines. 9x Chaos Cultist w/ Autogun . It helps, of course, that a couple of boat-mounted objective squads and the always great Skyweavers round things out, ensuring this army can pressure any part of the board at any time, and giving it a strong counter to Plagueburst Crawlers (who deeply dislike being blasted with mortals and tagged in melee).

This thing is surprisingly nasty – GW tried to make one-use Mortal Wound bombs a thing several times in 8th and never quite managed it, but at an average of 4.67 Mortals when you let this one fly, you’re genuinely in the range where you can just randomly punk out a character in the midst of battle (and rack up good damage in a mirror match more generally).

That’s true against pretty much anything, but once again the kind of grindy games these Death Guard lists want to play feels like one of the places it’ll be especially strong, allowing you to actually risk a strike into the opposing castle or blunt a countercharge and grab the reins of the game by disrupting their scoring plans.

The powerful Lord of Virulence gets a first outing here, with his Master of Destruction aura amping up the launchers, while Tollkeeper returns for another round too.

So, the first thing you want to see out of a new Codex is that at least one top tier build exists. I had a chat with the event organiser, and this list was regularly slamming Despoiled Ground and While We Stand We Fight, because against anything other than the limited crop of spike shooting builds in the metagame (mostly Sisters) this army can be very confident it’ll still have a substantial board presence as the game wraps up. Blightlord Terminator: Blight launcher, Bubotic AxeDeathshroud Terminators [14 PL, 270pts] So, the first thing to know about this list is that it has the distinction of being the only non-Death Guard army to take a win off one of the three DG lists on show here (the other loss being picked up in a mirror match).

As a first winning Death Guard list goes, in many ways this one isn’t hugely surprising. Backspace key is that way.We already talked about the importance of depth, so seeing a completely different Death Guard list round out our trio is very encouraging. If you like Death Guard and don't have any Death Guard that box is a no-brainer (unless you can find the DG half of DI for cheap, which will be less and less a factor as time goes on). Next week looks a little quiet – there’s a four round event in Australia that we’ll be looking at pretty much whatever happens, and a couple of other things where it’s not entirely clear whether they’re still on or not, so I’m actively on the hunt right now!

Plague Marine w/ melee weapons: 2nd Plague knife Bringing a spare Plageucaster also gives it an additional angle that was less readily available to the other two lists, which is taking Psychic Ritual (which Ashley did in one of the games), something that’s going to be very tough to stop for a lot of armies. Backspace key is that way. Blightlord Terminator: Bubotic Axe, Combi-bolterDeathshroud Terminators [8 PL, 155pts]. Blightlord Terminator: Flail of corruption. Once the enemy are at closer range, Virulent Rounds combines with Arch-Contaminator to allow for an extremely unpleasant volley out of the Terminators or one of the Plague Marine units, and thanks to presence of a Biologis Putrifier, The Blightening can be unleashed at point blank range for massive damage (or even in melee), and when the Deathshrouds charge Foul Infusion is going to mean they hit like a garbage truck. It’s easy to look at this list and assume it’s just a tank build, but the sheer number of force multipliers it can stack up on its attacks means it can throw down horrific damage if you let it, and it needs to be treated with extreme care. Player: Harlequin’s Blade, Shuriken Pistol+ Elites +Death Jester [3 PL, 50pts]: Humbling Cruelty . Rather than going all-in on Poxwalkers and Terminators, this list splits the difference, and adding in a Malignant Plaguecaster and Whirlwind Scorpius as well gives this army some very strong board coverage with BUBONIC ASTARTES units for Despoiled Ground. Player: Harlequin’s Blade, Shuriken Pistol .
