hello everyone,

I'm not new to fantasy, but I have wanted to start a warrior of chaos army for some time.
Now my first purchase will be a battalion box, one core box set and 2-3 heroes. I am wanting to aim for a fluffy/fun nurgle list. It doesn't need to be competitive as my usual opponents are.my wife and brother, I occasionally play at a local game club, but only occasionally.

So I an torn between two possible lists, excluding magic items

Nurgle chaos lord

Nurgle champion

Nurgle sorceror

20 marauders flails, shields, full command, mark of nurgle, sorc goes here

5 wolves

5 wolves

11 chaos warriors halberds, shields, full command, mark of nurgle, champ goes here

13 chaos warriors halberds, shields full command, mark of nurgle, lord goes here

5 chaos knights, lances, shields, full command, mark of nurgle,


or,

Nurgle chaos lord

Nurgle champion

Nurgle sorceror

36 marauders flails, shields, full command, mark of nurgle, sorc goes here

5 wolves

5 wolves

12 chaos warriors halberds, shields, full command, mark of nurgle, lord and champ go here

5 chaos knights, lances, shields, full command, mark of nurgle,


Do which list is better suited? Which list would be more fun? And do any of you have any other combinations that could probe entertaining

If your looking for a fluffy/"fun" list consider using Festus as your sorcerer and stick him in with the marauders. This gives them poisoned attacks and 5+ regen. For the first build, I like the idea of one unit of warriors going sword and board providing you with a solid anvil.

Also give the war hounds mutant poisons for nurgle goodness.

I think building your Hero as a BSB would be good tactically, and also offer you a good opportunity to make a strongly nurgle themed model. BSBs are great for a nice big surface area to freehand on, or put toether an eye-catching banner to help illustrate the theme or fluff of your army. Slightly larger units of warriors (15-18) might also be a good move, that way they have to lose an entire rank of guys before your attack output gets decreased.
