AoS 1500 Point vs. Nurgle

[Robert Turney]

Brand new player here and I am in my first slow grow tournament. I need help against a Nurgle player that uses a Great Unclean One with Plague Drones. Can anybody make a list from the following units:

Slaan Starmaster
9 Ripperdactyls
2 Bastillidons
1 Engine of the Gods
1 Old Blood on Carnosaur
1 Saurus Scar Veteran on Carnosaur
1 Troglodon
1 Eternity Warden
80 skinks
16 Saurus Knights
24 Saurus Warriors
5 Chameleon Skinks
3 Kroxigar
1 Astrolith Bearer
1 Saurus Old Blood
1 Skink Star Priest

 

[LizardWizard]

Carnosaurs are awesome. Make his Drones take fear checks and chortle as they run due to your Carno's bloodroar.

 

[Aginor]

Bastiladons also make good damage against demons. And a Starpriest is also quite useful, as Starlight does extra damage.

 

[Aginor]

I would try this, and later transition to a 6 Rippers Shadowstrike for 2k points.

This one allows for some summoning of whatever you like/need.

If your Nurgle opponent runs large units and a Lord of Blights you really cant rely too much on shooting. Like @Aginor mentioned, Summon Starlight is awesome. Few things neuter Putrid Blightkings as effectively as a Skink Starpriest. Saurus banners also help stop demons from rolling that all annoying 1 on their battleshock.
