Roland Rivera: The Glottkin continues his relentless march over the Mortal Realms, as this is yet another podium result for Nurgle’s favorite triplets in the Befouling Host subfaction for an extra jolt of summoning power. This list has a deep lineup of dance partners for the Glottkin – if you’re looking to lock something down, send in some Plaguebearers within the Sloppity Bilepiper aura to make them unable to pile in. If you’re looking to take them out, send in one of the Maggoth Lords and start swinging.

Another great perk to Befouling Host is getting Beasts of Nurgle as Battleline. These guys fill out your Battleline on the cheap, and also make for an efficient screen/disruption piece. This list also doubles down on the cheap disruption department with the inclusion of a unit of Nurglings, which help you generate contagion points and force your opponent to screen them out.

While many players are doubtless aware of this list’s gameplan by now, knowing is only half the battle, and stopping these servants of the Plague God from owning the middle of the board is easier said than done.

Kieren Coates: The list is a classic skaven list that was built by myself, Jordan (warpfire minis), and Keegan (mechrat) – it’s well balanced with a variety of threats

Between two verminlords, 20 PCB’s, hell pit, blizzard and great plagues it can deliver an incredible amount of damage when required – just make sure to not get hit in the good stuff before you can hit your opponent

For matchups, my first round sadly, my opponent had a medical complication the previous evening and was unable to attend.

Round 2 was into Jeremy’s SBGL with heavy recursion and wolves focus, in which a double turn from two verminlords and a hell pit was able to tear right through the centre to reach the soft heroes which underpin the army

My loss to nurgle was to a glottkin slopidy counter melle list from Lazlo – it has been a while since I’ve played into this variant, and mistakes were made.

As a tip for this matchup, it’s very good at pinning your models into place and preventing piles to get most of your models into range – with this in mind in a counter intuitive manner it’s best to lead the charge in with your buffed up verminlords, and have your hell pit and PCB’s waiting in the back for the next turn after the fight has been engaged

The reason for this is if he is able to countercharge into your clanrats, he can place one model just at 2.9 inches from your hammers, combined with slopidy heavily reducing their damage.

However if this is done to the verminlords, with their 3 inch scythe they can still very easily murder what they are put into, rather than only being able to hit with 2-3 PCB’s and being locked out for the game

Lazlo was a great opponent who went on to get 2nd place, only losing to Nathan’s KO in the final round as his list was not designed to fight mass ranged, and I was glad to see him reaching the podium for a strong run.

Round 4 was Jordan’s mixed KotET with a varanguard and belakhor focus, which was an incredibly tight game with myself being pushed down early, I managed to get one sneaky play of censors with death frenzy through a gnawhole to charge the knights, only to double pile around into the varanguard with death frenzies to keep them in check. realising the only way out was a double turn on 3-4 to wipe the board. Playing under the assumption of it being my only out, I hit the double, which sealed the game

My final game was against Tristan and his Ironjaws where I was forced to go first, and set up my defensive lines (death frenzy, dreaded frenzy, mystic shield, flaming weapon) and scored while sitting as far back as possible

On his turn one, he cleared all my clanrats and left my army exposed

Having won priority, I chose to give it to him despite being exposed as I knew as a true ironjaws player, he would be full sending it – however this was a mistake as he should have moved backwards and waited for my defensive buffs to clear

With everything engaged, he chose to fight first with Mawkrusha with destroyer into verminlord warbringer with mystic shield, finest hour, and all-out defence. Sadly for him, he didn’t kill the verminlord, which was essential as it prevented smashing and bashing, which let my plague censors now hit into his pigs and kill all 6 of them.

The other Mawkrusha and pigs killed my hell pit and some less essential pieces, but it now left them exposed on my turn for blizzard, great plagues, frenzies censors and verminlords to clean up – resulting in a bloodbath that effectively called the game
