I'm working on a 2500pt list and I could really use some advice. I also need a Lord Level General as my Heroes selection is full. Should I go with a Chaos Lord or a Sorcerer Lord? I have exactly 500pts to spend for the General but I dont have to spend them all. Enough left over to buy a banner or two would be nice. This is a Nurgle army so everything has MoN. Here is what I have so far. Thoughts? Thanks in advance! Exalted Hero 230pts -MoN -Shrieking Blade -Shield -Armor of Fortune -Ironcurse Icon -BSB -Stream of Corruption Exalted Hero 205pts -MoN -Shield -Dawnstone -Book of Secrets: Lore of Death -Blood Curdling Roar Chaos Sorcerer 185pts -MoN -Level 2 Lore of Nurgle -Infernal Puppet -Necrotic Phylactery Heroes 620pts 24.8% Chaos Marauders x30 (6x5) 230pts -MoN -Full Command -Light Armor -Great Weapons Chaos Warriors x16 (Exalted and Sorcerer; 6x3) 316pts -MoN -Full Command -Shields Chaos Warriors x17 (BSB; 6x3) 349pts -MoN -Full Command -Halberds -Shields Core 895pts 35.8% Chaos Knights x10 (5x2) 480pts -MoN -Full Command Special 480pts 19.2% |

I would say Spell familiar and infernal puppet 2 arcane items, don't think you can have them on your sorcerer, unless i missed something with the new rules. Taking a Sorcerer lord would be a good idea, then maybe something fun and rare with your spare points like a hellcannon or a Warshrine depending on how much you have left! |

Good catch, thank you. Switch it out for Necrotic Phylactery for now unless someone can suggest something better? Sorry about that. As much as I would love to take a Hellcannon... I unfortunately do not own one... and wont until they release a plastic kit... I detest GW metal minis.... have since they stopped using lead... but thats another issue... |

Champion of Nurgle

I remember hearing here and there and some places that the chaos lord is not as great as the sorcerer lord. Based on that, I'd say maybe giving the sorcerer a try and boosting your magic? Otherwise, try to build a chaos lord and a sorcerer lord for roughly the same amount of points, this way you can try each of them a few times and see which you want to stick with, meanwhile you can go ahead and build/play with whatever you're planning on doing with the left overs. Ta da! Either way, if you're going for more theme then punch you just have to include a palanquin, no true Nurgle Champion should leave home without it. Maybe buy one for the whole family and have all your units with a fear causer. Dun dun dun. How's that sound? |

The army I've been playing around with is strikingly similar. Edit: I'm dumb. The Ironcurse Icon is an Enchanted Item... The other thing I've learned: A sorcerer lord and a lv2 is really pushing it for the same lore. I have a Sorcerer Lord with a Spell Familiar, MoN and a Lv.2 Sorcerer with Lore of Death. Lore of Death is still very fluffy Nurgle, and I gave it to the Lv.2 as it's easier to make the argument Nurgle hasn't seen fit to bless him yet. Having a Lv.2 and a Lv.4 with the same lore does guarantee you all 6 spells, but, with the potency of the new lores, I'm finding I like the variety a little better. Just some thoughts. Side-note: Huzzah for another Nurglite showing his face around here! By my count, that makes three :) Though I haven't posed a list yet...I should do that. |

Sorry to double post, but you could also switch out the Armour of Fortune for the Talisman of Endurance. The net result is 5 saved points and +1 Armour save. Chaos Armour + Talisman of Endurance is 4+/5++ Armour of Fortune is 5+/5++ I've come across this a few times trying to use Common Magic Armour with warriors, the default Chaos Armour is just better than the Heavy Armour they all have. |
