Plague Towers, in Army Forge and the army list downloadable from UK website, appear to be available only as add on to contagion engine formation?? I.e. 4 Contagion Engine and 1 Plague Tower. I presume the intent is that they replace the contagion engines, i.e. similar to overall army list structure to the NetEA list? |

They are also available as an upgrade for the plague marine retinues As an upgrade to Contagion engines they don't replace one ie you would have 4 contagions+1 plague |

Combining Arty with a heavy transport (admittedly one with some long range FP) seems quite bizarre, and 650pts to boot. What's the reasoning? And why no availability as separate formation? |

Bump. Is there any UK person who knows what the idea behind thiis combined arty/transport formation is? As my questions above suggest... I am perplexed. ![]() |

It's adding Artillery to an Artillery formation rather than anythiing else, you have a 7(+D3)BP 45cm Indirect Fire formation. Plus the abillity to absorb Blast Markers if the Plague Tower is at the rear or a better save at the front of the formation. |
