@@Rokkis_Gaming_Lounge Thanks! I've already built them and will start painting them soon. I've been wondering: is it worth running one squad of shooty marined and one squad of melee marines? Also is it worth running a squad of 7 or 10? I built my squad like this: Champion with HPW and Plasma 1x Plasma 1x Blight launcher 1x Spewer Everyone else gets a Plague Boltgun
@0_jules awesome! I believe point-wise you get the best value per model at 7 but a 10-man squad will have more survivability. How you want to run them completely depends on how you want to play them and how they fit into the rest of your army :)
i always forget that we have a Plague Belcher, it looks so much like the Spewer. and the Spewer and the Meltagun in a 5 man is great. i think the melta edges out the Blight Launcher, because Rhinos are almost a must take for the marines. Blight Launcher means you have to shoot at other armies that also would rather shoot at you than be getting into close range against you.
It comes down to how you run the squad right! I take the Meltagun over the Blight Launcher almost every game because of the same reasons you have mentioned. Our Plague Marines have so much fun in close quarter combat!
I think plague knives are pretty good but underrated, yeah they don't have ap but 3 attacks lethal hits and with some combos we can surprise your opponent with ap -2 or -3 and yes this wouldn't be great with a melee build but a range one that's pretty good to me
I just found this video, havent fully watched, but hoping to find out how I should equip my 2x10 plague man unit. I want purely the best shooting army. and who should lead the units?
Hi! For the maximum amount of output at range, I would probably suggest 3x Plasma guns, 2x Blight Launcher, 2x Plague Spewer and 3x Plague Boltgun. Bioligus Putrifier is your best option to lead them as he will give the unit lethal hits on 5+ instead of 6s. The Plague Boltguns don't often do a whole lot but they are ok for chip damage. So you may want to consider using some of the melee options instead of the boltguns. Plague Spewers are great for overwatch. If you have extra points, putting the unit in a Rhino will give them a lot more survivability and help them get around the map. Pretty much all of our special weapons are good so you can't really go wrong with whatever options you choose :)
@@Rokkis_Gaming_Lounge Rokkis, I saw someone else someone other channel., and they gave the same answer as you, so because I believe everything I see on the internet. I will model my PM with your choices. cant wait to roll 5s for lethals
I chose Death Guard to be my first army and picked up a box of Plague Marines.
Found this vid to be super helpful, thanks :)
Welcome to Death Guard! That's a great place to start with them! Have fun with them :)

Working towards 2k Death Guard. Love the content! Very helpful
Thank you! I'm glad you were able to take something away from it :)

That's the thing I love about our weapon options. All of them are pretty viable and you can't really go wrong with whatever you choose :)
@@Rokkis_Gaming_Lounge yeah that's very true :)
Pretty useful. I was a little bit lost with all the options.
There are a lot to choose from and experiment with right!
Do you think mixing the Plague Marine set with the HH MK3 Armour pack would give more load outs/looks?
To be honest, I'm not very familiar with those models. I'll have to check them out!
sounds fun
@@Rokkis_Gaming_Lounge The Death Guard heads look great as well (not the old ones)

First!
Commenting for the algorithm.
Appreciate it 🙏
I also ranked the weapons the same way...
