  • Welcome to Profiles of Decay hosted by our very own Death Guard Dave who has taken it upon himself to make some shorter videos looking into the uses of some of our more looked over units. In this episode Dave looks at the humble shambling hordes of the undead the Poxwalkers! And Dave is convinced we should we start giving them a chance once more on the table!

      Myphitic Blight-Hauler is my favourite little guy, but everyone says it loses out to the Foetid Bloat Drone. Could you shed some light on what makes the MBH good?

    just got home from an RTT, took two 20 man units of pox walkers and they worked incredibly well! went 89 to 70 vs DE round 1, raound 2 was 100 to 34 vs Tsons and game 3 was 100 to 64 vs Nidzilla putting me in first!

    I lve been regularly taking typhus with 20x poxwalkers. Just a fun, cheap unit to run and they actually do so much for their point values. It might not be a beatstick unit but it can pull off some funny and tactical plays

    Not sure if it's good tactic but I have used the Startagem of Go To Ground for a invul of 6+. Just adds another level of resilience to the unit

    I hope they get battleline in the codex. The combat patrol rules also give you enhancements that eother give them deep strike or the ability to automatically add D6 models back into a unit, those would both be great in a detachment.

    • @johnhildenbrand2642
      @johnhildenbrand2642 3 місяці тому

      Battleline would be pushing this army even further into horde style, which is not supposed to be our identity at all, as hilarious as a walking dead zombie themed list would be, I hope they don't go to battleline

    I personally absolitly adore Poxwalker... they saved so much games for me in 9th and also secured my victory in some 10th games so far ... never run a list without at least 20 of them 😅

  • @benja9986
    @benja9986 3 місяці тому

    another fun little thing is that the curse of the walking pox works against everything that isnt a monster or vehicle and not just infantery (witch i thought for so long) so even iff you kill beastss,mounted or swarms you get walkers back.

  • @deepseaminingsyndicate
    @deepseaminingsyndicate 2 місяці тому

    Can anyone explain to me or answer this question.... So im a brand new player as in new new, got the combat patrol for fathers day - With regards to the Typhus rules and you GET poxwalkers on the certain kills described here... If you haven't lost any poxwalkers do you still "Get more" - like does the ability only Regen ones lost? what if you haven't lost any of your pox walkers and take out the opponents cultists or infantry using typhus? If so, would you technically need to have some off the board the board to throw in when you kill and get some more? where do they go are they attached to typhus? again say you have 20 does that mean you now have 21 in that same squad? OR is that you only get ones back if you've lost some so it just replaces?
