All in all, they're good. Either +4 melee save with shields or decently killy and still pretty survivable with two weapons. Though be advised that they painfully miss a spear-option, so while sizes of 20 to 30 are encouraged, never go beyond that, as you can never attack in two rows. Keep in mind Coaliation now, so will never technically count as battleine.

	**Nurgle already has good screening and objective sitters in the form of Plaguebearers, and Plague Monks fill the 2" range hammer horde role far better. I'd suggest skipping these. If you really want a goat horde for objective sitting, go with Gors instead. Count as coalition now, so will never be battleline, and lacking the proper keywords get virtually none of the defensive buffs. Is easily the most fragile of the infantry choices.

Biggest change being quite a few (like more than 90%) of your army abilities, spells and enhancments now work off the Maggotkin of Nurgle keyword in stead of just Nurgle. Meaning gone are the days of Fleshy Abundance or Blades of putrifaction. Now if you are brining Chaos Warriors it is because they actually do something innately that you want. Basically all they really provide is a cheaper anvil to bash your opponents on. But keep in mind they lack the keywords to key the army wide ward save and their save rerolls is now just a +1 to saves. So even as an anvil they took some licks. In this army best use for them is cheapish backfield objective holders. Because they do nothing that Blightkings can't already do better.

Same as Chaos Warriors, they can be included but beyond whatever the Nurgle keyword gets you they really get almost no buffs from this army really. No more Fleshy Abundance or BOP to buff up there atttacks. And they have even more crucially lost the run+charge, meaning again the only use you have for these guys is whatever they are already bringing to the table. Namely they are cheap and can get a good charge off, so if you need some squads of cannon-fodder that are somewhat fast, here they are. As their speed can have use in an army that is now almost universally slow.

All in all, these can deal a lot of damage very quickly, especially when getting buffed by a Chaos Sorcerer Lord, but their overall reliance on having a babysitter along really hurts them. Also, it doesn't help that they cost a lot more points than Blightkings for a lot less oomph.

Well they have now gone up to 2 wounds each! making them twice as durable as before and between their Ward and the armies univesal healing they are still hard to shift. Also, they have also become very good targets for Fleshy Abundance pushing them to 3 wounds each. Which is a good idea giving how slow they actually are with really no way to speed them up. But once in combat they should more than survive long enough to rack up the Disease Points. In addition overall their attacks outputs are quite poor. Until you realise that they are meant to be accompiend by a herald. A Poxbringer will help with their iniative abd a Spoilpox Scivener and a Sloppity Bilepiper will greatly boost their damage potential and saves. Honestly they buff them so much if you are going heavy deamon be sure to bring atleast of them.		*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls//aos-warscroll-plaguebearers-of-nurgle-en.pdf Plaguebearers of Nurgle]:''' (Deamon Min10 150pts.)

Their 8" movement sounds promising, but since they are almost the only Nurgle unit with a missile weapon, they will rarely run, so the movement evens out. The missile weapon is rather meh, with only 3+ 3+ no rend and one damage, it adds up as they add one to the characteristic depending on the size of the squad they are shooting at (to a max of seven). So against large squads they can put out a healthy amount of shooting. They can still bring a model back with their banner and have an overall decent attack profile. They are still pretty tough to kill, though nowhere near the same as a Pusgoyle Blightlord (understandably they are much cheaper as well). Now some downsides, the +1 attack from a Scrivener only specifically effects '''Plaugbearer hosts''' now, same with the the Poxbringers attack second ability. Meaning the only herald that really helps these guys is the '''Sloppity Bilepiper'''. Also the loss of the run and charge from the Gnarlmaws really hurts these guys speed overall. While still very good they are not quite the all-rounder, take-all-comers they were before. Still they are relatively fast for Nurgle, and make an excellent missle calvary. Best taken in Droning Guard army to get a -1 to hit against them for one turn. Can really help buff their surviability if you are going for a Plauge Drones focused force.		*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/aos-warscroll-plague-drones-of-nurgle-en.pdf Plague Drones of Nurgle]:''' (Conditional Battline: Droning Gaurd Plague Legion,Daemon Min:3 200pts) Your flyers.

I'd suggest skipping these. If you really want a goat horde for objective sitting, go with Gors instead. Count as coalition now, so will never be battleline, and lacking the proper keywords get virtually none of the defensive buffs. Is easily the most fragile of the infantry choices.
