Maggotkin of Nurgle Rotbringers Tactics

Faction Overview

Rotbringers at the moment appear to be a low tier Warband. they focused on slowness and outlasting to the long game (not good traits in short games based on speed, unless you get staying alive misions).

Pros

• Above avrage tough: Have 25 wound (more forgiving with lucky rolls and crits), and all Toughness 4

Cons

• Slow: move 3" and no good way to get over it.

Abilities Overview

• [Double] Virulent Discharge: Pick a visible enemy fighter within 1" of this fighter and roll a number of dice equal to the value of this ability. For each 4+, allocate 1 damage point to that fighter. (all)
  • Fighter Commentary - bonus damage
• [Double] Venomous Sting: Pick a visible enemy fighter within 1" of this fighter and roll a dice. on a 2+, until the end of the turn, that fighter can't make a move action or disengage action. (Pusgoyle Blightlord)
  • Fighter Commentary
• [Double] Toll the Sonorous Tocsin: Until the end of the battle round, add 1 to the movement characteristic of friendly fighters while they are within 6" of this fighter. (Putrid Blightking with Sonorous Tocsin)
  • Fighter Commentary Let Rotbringers actually move. has a problem that the Sonorous Tocsin dose needs to barely move so other fighters can benefit from at least a 7" move, mabey 8" if you happen to start in a sweet spot. works out better for a Pusgoyle Blightlord as with [Double] Rush will net a 15" move with fly (if you want to stun an enemy, you have to settle with 13", as you can't us 2 abilities during fighters activation).
• [Triple] Blighted Icon: Until the end of the battle round, add 1 to the toughness characteristic of friendly fighters while they are within 6" of this fighter. (Putrid Blightking Icon Bearer)
  • Fighter Commentary
• [Triple] Grandfather's Blessing: Until the end of the battle, round add 1 to the strength characteristic of attack actions that have a range characteristic of 3 or less made by friendly fighters while they are within 6" of this fighter. (Leader)
