Lyraeus Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Ok, to be honest PoxWalkers are awesome but I will need a lot of them . . . I mean, just going up against a Conscripts So am army could easily lead to 60+ of the buggers walking around. Not to mention that they can be buffed by Fabius Bile, gets Rerolls from a Chaos Lord and Typhus makes them S4 and T4. He'll there is even FW Neurosis who lets them Reroll 1's for their Disgustingly Resilient roll. So many fun things. I will need to get a lot of them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purajh Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 This is why I have 80 currently, and plan to make some conversions from ta and other factions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGraham Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Not having to take morale tests is absolutely bonkers. They're so ridiculously tough to get rid of, and can still dish out some substantial hurt. Plus, with objectives being decided by how many models are within 3" of them... *shudder* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threejacks Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 I have 40 built at the moment and will probably make my first build with 2 x 20.Their main job will be to bubble wrap the "Putrid Fortress"(my land raider).I will need to pick up more though as their regrow ability can grow a unit beyond its starting size so I want to have that option if it comes up. Power wise,with 2 attacks each,yes they can be kinda nasty but due to speed and needing to get a fair amount of models into combat against softer targets that they can reliably hurt,,I dont see having 4 or more blobs of 20 strong being a very afficient use of points.

With Fabius you could easily get A3 (bit of luck actually but still, either +S, T, or A) and Typhus works out to 7" (which is an anomaly since 6" is the norm) so you can get S4 T4 Pox Walkers with a Psyker for Gift of Contagion.

Frowbakk Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Finally got my 8th starter box and am looking to trade Nurgle for Primaris. I already posted in the trade section, but figured there might be some interest here as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only add the appropriate models for the army you are facing. That sounds like a blast. Damns you Jim! Damns you Purajh!

Ish Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 I'm thinking they might make excellent mid-field objective campers. Properly buffed, they aren't going to be shifted unless your opponent gives them a lot of attention... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frowbakk Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Perfect time to mention the Bitz Swap on Friday night, to customize your new recruits to Papa Nurgle. Fun! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
