General Strike Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 How does he interact with Death Guard armies? Since he has Death Guard and The Tainted, does the rest of my army work the same way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMDR_Welles Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 The Tainted keyword doesnt really exist beyond him anymore. Everything else should work like normal AFAIK. Didnt he get a points increase recently? He isnt the "must have" favorite of the min/max crowd. Personally, I am sick of the Necrosius/Typhus party bus... Especially when in the fluff they utterly hate each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Strike Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 It's a way to get good mileage out of poxwalkers, with them being T4 S4 re-rolling Disgustingly Resilient of one and +1 to hit. But I agree, I just wanted to know how to run him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I agree, I just wanted to know how to run him. Really, now with the points increase, the Necrosius/Typhus Party Bus isnt that great anymore IMHO. Back before the change to Poxwalkers and the stratagems, people abused the crap out of it. Having Typhus babysit the Poxwalkers, is a waste of Typhus now. Hell, with the points drop on Surgeons, he gives the reroll to any DEATH GUARD INFANTRY with Disgustingly resilient, not just Poxwalkers. Better buy, and you arent using a cookiecutter netlist combo that is the Party Bus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokugawa Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 He is okay on his own. The "poxwalker..." line of rule could be read as flavor text, since poxwalkers were nerfed to ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Lord Loki Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I always look at him as a better sorcerer that helps out pox walkers if they are available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulwyf Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I like him regardless of any poxwalker stuff. He is a better sorc and a better fighter. I don't know why they went up on his points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawlers are good, guardsmen are good, Dominus knights are good... Necrosius was niche at best when he was cheaper. Now he is nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyslugger Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I've used him and typhus together....I justify it as Morty kicking A double S and banging their heads together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
