A pestilense list is hard because they don’t have a lot of stuff that covers each others weaknesses, the plague claw is one of the worst data sheets in our book but it’ll be fun when it goes off. I’d switch the plague furnace with a Verminlord corruptor as you’re bringing a lot of priests if your girlfriend likes them, they’re very thematic and alright as a combat/utility piece

#

Furnace is also good but it makes you want to group up your units and blob up the board with minimal strategy

Thanks a lot
She doesn't love the mini of the corruptor but as I said I could paint it now she's ok with it as she saw the benefits of the rules for her priests

No problem, I’d also like to say in 2K points games the plague furnace is definitely good to use and thematic, so if they ever want to make it into a 2K list it’s definitely a good option. 1k points is a bit limiting especially for pestilens

Yeah it would mean play a castle but I'm pretty sure she wouldn't be able to play with that style
I'm sure charging with Verminlord is more her style
We're thinking about removing 1 Plaguepack and replacing it either with Plagueclaw or Plague Monks

Plaguepack makes more sense with the Verminlord, it has a rule where when a prayer crits it summons a great plague

I had people tell me 3 priests for 1k points is a little much
That 1 can be replaced with either a Plagueclaw or a squad of Plague Monks

Competitively, yeah it’s a bit much but it’ll be very fun
