Nice to see Morty being taken in all of these lists too. I really think he has great value as a pressure piece provided the rest of the list is built to have enough speed/movement and durability to provide proper threat saturation. I run a list of mostly terminators and vehicles and Morty often gets ignored until it's too late.
The AoW batrep was great, really recommend it! Watching those guys talk through their decisionmaking and take their time to make the best possible play helped me improve my game.
Catching up on the DG meta, been focusing on my Flesh Tearers who I was thinking of bring to LVO. Loving these big Deathshorud list as I took 12 to LVO last year, and 10 blightlords. Love love love Terminus Est style list. Not sure if I am planning to bring Morty or 10 Blightlords again guess that will depend on how Dec goes. I should get that 2nd squad of cultist painted up just need to find a grenade launcher.
Are PBCs just completely in the “DO NOT INCLUDE” list at this point? I would think that it could be incredibly strong at holding the home objective. The mortar can reach most places, so it can still contribute while being hidden, and units like Aquilons aren’t going to want to get anywhere near something that tough that has 2 spitters.
Pbcs come in 3 or 0 dude, they are prevalent in teams lists due to the blunting nature, the damage is prety dog now so you end up going for dorect LOS. They are really good front line tanks in certain match ups with flamers. But the thing is with how 40k is played you just more value out of preds but pbcs are OK (in 3s tho)
This is a really dumb question, and as a newbie to Death Guard, I am going to ask it. If I am running a Great Unclean One in my list, can I use the stratagems from Death Guard on him?
no silly questions, no you can't as he doesnt have the DG keyword. He can however benfit from DG units putting things into contagion range and dropping thier touoghness or characteristics from our sicknesses (-1sv or -1BS/WS)
Thanks for the comment, don't take it this way, we're just showing what options there are around DSTs right now. We dont think this is even the best list right now but with low points costs and the fun of putting them on the table with Morty we are showing it off a bit.
@@deathguarddisgustinglyresilien ya. Personally I hate the look of the bloat drones so probably will never buy them. I have 3 pbc's and 2 blight haulers. No predators either. Is it possible to use what I have with a list using a lot of terminators?
As someone who only has 6 currently I'm wary of buying another 6-12 in case GW realises they've made a horrible mistake with how cheap they are 😂 Loving Morty coming back though and love these vids

He's definitely a SHOOT ME FUCKERS OR DIE model like angron definitely not shit your pants like angron but I've always used him as a distraction

Quentin said on the AOW discord he wants to change the FBD to MBH but the models were not built. So he would have a little shooting
I assumed that would be the change he would likely of made
Stop tempting me! 😂
But interesting no one took a LOV
LoV is extremely good with pbcs. Main reason is DG need to reschedule melee, and LoV would extend charge range substantially with these builds
Appreciate it
This is a really dumb question, and as a newbie to Death Guard, I am going to ask it. If I am running a Great Unclean One in my list, can I use the stratagems from Death Guard on him?
Unfortunately I dint think so, not being a Death Guard Core unit
no silly questions, no you can't as he doesnt have the DG keyword. He can however benfit from DG units putting things into contagion range and dropping thier touoghness or characteristics from our sicknesses (-1sv or -1BS/WS)
@@Deathguarddave @JohnSmith-jxSwm Thanks for the help!
I won't be trying out the 18 anytime soon. Since the pointdrop, DS are sold out everywhere around here...
Are plague marines out completely now?
no not out, this is just what we're thinking if you ARE building around DSTs. DG has a lot of valid lists right now
nobody uses plagueburst crawlers anymore?

The Saltire Games affiliate link no longer seems to work
We're checking thanks
Swag !
how is it -2 to be hit if the negative modifiers can't go beyond -1?
Because 1 (typhus, nurgs) cause a -1 to hit and our sickness can modify the opponents WS/BS characteristic by -1 they are 2 different things so stack.
As someone who only has 6 currently I'm wary of buying another 6-12 in case GW realises they've made a horrible mistake with how cheap they are 😂
Loving Morty coming back though and love these vids
