Hi

The Death Guard mod is, as you know made to bring in a new faction in the Dark Crusade. The Death Guard legion.

Here's their background story.

Directly copied out of my notepad, plan to send it to hivemind when i'm done.

Preposition - House of the Plague - Armoury, houses some research (like (suggestion) Plague Fleas which would incerase HP of all units/chaos Lord)

Hmm... I'm not so sure about all these heavy weapons. Proper Plague Marines only get special weapons (flamers, plasma guns and meltaguns). We can add in Nurgle Havocs to use the big guns instead.

Few inconsistencies/problems -
- 3 terminators is probably 1 too many. The only other race that gets 3 tier 3 elites is Eldar, and a Terminator squad is better than a Warp Spider squad.
- The Great Unclean One should cost 400/400, like other ubers.
- Nurgle Daemon Prince is considerably cheaper than normal Daemon Prince (200/0 and 250/250). Rules- and fluff-wise a marked Daemon Prince is stronger than an Undivided one, so it should probably be more expensive and stronger.
- If I'm reading this correctly, the Nurgle Lord does far less damage than a Terminator and roughly the same (IIRC) as a Tactical Marine. He should be, basically, a tougher Chaos Lord. I see that you've given him Sorcerer powers. Does that mean that you want him to be a mix between caster and fighter?

I see that the Plague Marines have squads of 4-7. Is that not a too small number?

I think not.. actually they are even tougher combatants than regular CSMs so 7PMs shold have the same morale and HP as 10 regulars do...

Then they'd be more or less useless in later stages, where termies or oblits can easily take down individuals.

There is power in numbers.

still there is possibility of upgrading them as tiers are rising so in the beginning you get 4plaguemarines with attributes equal to 10CSM and in the tier 4 you could have 7PMs equal to SM termiesquad...

Shoulda thought of that

yeah, lot of things to balance and to play with.. HP/morale/armor/damage/morale damage/unit building time/reinforcing time/special abilities...

I'm now officially the second-in-command, so I'm gonna work the stuff out.

Suggest people, suggest!

Anyways, I'm gonna open up a thread "Framework" where anything related to it will be discussed.
