MY ORIGINAL NURGLE-CENTRIC ARMY LIST VALUE: 2,050 points

Below is the list I used prior to White Dwarf issue 264, which modified the Chaos Marine army list to make it strictly Death Guard.  Despite the selections made, it took me about three months of calculating numbers to get to it, basically because I wanted certain things and would tinker with other squads and items in order to get it.  Even then, I made an error, which prompted me to remove the page and recalculate AGAIN. The army list below is still tournament-legal: it is a Chaos Space Marine army.  The characters are simply Nurgle-worshippers.  (The majority of squads and individuals is still in use under the Death Guard list modifications.) As recommended by Games Workshop, I began with a (roughly) 2,000 point limit, and used the "Standard Mission" organization chart was used..

A NOTE REGARDING MARKS OF CHAOS AND TROOP SELECTION For those that don't play Chaos in 40K, Plague Marines squads are normally Elite chouices.  However, as I took a Chaos Lord bearing the Mark of Nurgle, I can take Plague Marines as Troop choices AND Elite choices.  The other Marks of Chaos, with the exception of the Mark of Chaos Undivided, can do the same with certain squads as well (i.e. a Lord with Khorne's Mark may take Berzerkers as Troops as well as Elites).
