nurgle advantage?

+1 T.

i really dont care about khorns +1 a as if you have higher T you survive longer and get more attacks anyway.

oh noes!
yea well, blood for the blood god ^^ simpole direct bash n smash 'em strategy ! enemy will never suspect it ^^

nurgle seems pretty cool for the way to go, +1 T is always awesome, and they just take a lot of dmg and kill stuff at the same time. plus, nurgle termies with +1 T and Feel No Pain....grrr go away!!!! lol.

yea khorne got nerfed the chainaxe rule was very good, and theyve taken it away now, its like, instead of smashing you with a giant chainaxe right thrugh your armour, theyve beat it off a rock til the jaggy bits broke and theyre just using blunt force against you now

"slaanesh has +1 initiative (if i`m not mistaken)

To the Codex!"

yea they do, pretty nasty at times.


grrr....iv been about to start a khorne themed armour, got like 50 zerkers etc and my brass scorpion coming...but now thinking of all this, im edging towards uncie Nurg

damn you poll system! damn you cruel world...hellloooo nurse...

what?

dammit, i want to play nurgle now, gonna go sulk and think about what im gonna do with 50 zerkers :S lol

I must say, you should go easy on the double posts there

As for tzeench, i for one am simply bored with him I also feel they could have gone another route with tzeenchian followers

I voted Slaanesh because not everyone can handle higher Initiative

And that matters, how?

If it really matters to you, abandon fluff and buy whatever you can find at a reasonable price

it doesnt really matter about the prices i should say. as you could go and buy a box of normal marines, and some green stuff, roll up a small ball and place it on normal marine chest while thinning it out at the sides and there's a perfectly set bloated plague marine. dont normal marines also get chain swords, so not much diff in chain axes, (specially since no chainaxe rule now **broods**)

personally i think nurgle have it great, and because its nurgle, you can easily create your own demon out of greenstuff without worrying if it will turn out ok, as, since its nurgle...nothings OK anyway lol.

tzeentch are pretty cool, i was really tempted to play them but then all the chaos stuff i got came with K.B's and i thoguht to hell with it ^^

with ahriman at the forefront, nasty guy, and AP3 bolters....ahh!!! g'bye normal marines
although, i hear a 1k sons army would tend to be a little smaller than other CSM but theyre like elites ad cost that little extra ^^

That +1 toughness for nurgle may not sound like much but considering it means bolters wound them on 5's it is so good.

Also the box of 7 is because its Nurgle's favoured number which if I am not mistaken gives an advantage.

I voted Nurgle, and I'll tell ya why: Nurgle loves you.

Khorne would give less than a rat's arse for you. If you die, he says, "What a waste. I could use more blood, and you only managed to take 3245934672347680 skulls before you died. I took the square of that when I was 12. At least you gave yours, too." If you die, it's just another trophy supporting his throne. Another brick in the wall, so to speak.

If you go for Tzeentch, you're a tool. Tzeentch will let you in on his plan, but only your part of it. His grand plan is far too big for you to realise, which means that your head will explode if you figure it out, or you'll just be a tool the rest of your sorry life, which will be quite sorry given that you're a corrupted Space Marine that is technically immortal.

Slaanesh will seduce you and just when you think she's really into you, it turns out it's a he and you have a ball gag in your mouth with no clothes on. And then "it" turns on some crappy music to "heighten your senses" and "take you to infinity and beyond". Once you let it do that, you're emotionally dependent and you'll always want the same except harder, louder, and faster. It's a vicious cycle.

Nurgle is like a kindly Grandfather and the Godfather melded into one. He love you, and he'll take care of you. You are like his child. If someone tries to give you any guff, Papa Nurgle will call in Tony and the rest of the family and they'll shank the person that tried to pick a fight. Papa Nurgle is also non-discriminatory! Don't matter who you are: he will accept you into the fold and give you his gifts of plague and rot. And it's the gift that keeps on giving.

Nurgle would also win a fight between it and the rest of the Chaos gods: after Khorne kills everything, Nurgle takes over and Khorne is unemployed. If Tzeentch tries a sneaky plan, Nurgle don't care: things will just keep on rotting until Tzeentch itself does! And Slaanesh can try and try to whisper it's temptations in the ears of mortals, but if their ears or minds rot away, then Slaanesh has no more power.

In conclusion, while the other Chaos deities may be bullies, weirdos, or sexual harassers, Papa Nrugle will take care of you. All you gotta do for him is spread the word of plague! So please, think of the children. Do it for them. Join Nurgle.

And as an admin, I think I should say that you can only bump a thread at most once every day or so, not after one hour of no one responding. People will vote, fear not. Just give it time.

As you can tell, I really like Nurgle. Sometimes I get a bit excited, especially when there are new people to recruit to the goodly Papa. Glad you enjoyed it.

I hope you enjoy it enough to make a Plauge Marine army...

That's the beauty of it! You don't have to do a lot of coverting if you don't want to, but if you want to later, it's easy to do so!

Yup. It doesn't need to be that extreme at all! Gs sound round bubbles on the face for pustles, and paint the armor to look rusty and the green really sickly and all is good! And, as you get better, you can go back and expand. Nurgle lends itself well to this, but slaaneshi conversions, not so much.
