I'm a lil rusty on my rules and don't have my books with me. Lemartes can join a Death Co. Sq without jump packs for a ride in a Stormraven. And can still role with the sq when they get out of the stormraven as long as he doesn't use the Jumppack right?

I don't think he can man. You would be mixing unit types as he is jump infantry. Although there is nothing in the rules to prohibit a mixed squad like this as far as I know but could be wrong.
I believe that IC's can mix unit types like this but he isn't an IC. If my opinion is wrong though and other people think this is actually possible I'll be a happy man as this gives me more options for my own Blood Angels.

Yes indeed you can, and he is not an IC but a squad upgrade.

Wow, that would be a very cheap 4 man unit with the potential of a very made Lemartes running round the table by himself if the rest died and he took a wound.

In fact, you can combine different unit types; but there are several reminders that a unit moves at the rate of its slowest member (so he's forced to walk until he's the only one left)
He also limits what transports the squad can use and he takes up an additional space.

I've never thought of using him in this way before. I generally thought if him as the upgrade, when really I should have been thinking as though the points for the Death Company as an upgrade to him(mandatory none the less).
He can go in one of my two Stormravens. The Black Bird, as the name suggests it's painted black.

Yeah I thought so, knew I'd have to walk him until he is the only one left. Well this should be fun. Planning on taking on 2 Chaos Marine armies 2500 each. My homie is gonna back me up with a space marine 2500 point army of his own.
I'm taking this:

Nice.
I like to bring my landraider Exodus Cruor Est with my Storm Ravens whenever possible.
Seth is very under rated, I've been happy with his performance so far.
One question though. Flamers?
You need to post if you get the win.

Yeah Seth has been good to me.
Flamers are good expecially when buildings and bunkers are involved. SQ Maliki once wiped out over 30 Marines that where chillin in bunkers. Since then I've really liked haveing'em around.
My Dreads have them since they are the old metal ones and it came standard. Got used to haveing those.
Overall I've had alot of luck with'em so I don't tend to shy away from'em.
O and I'll win, I don't tend to lose:D

You just disproved the myth that flamers don't work against marines.

I originially thought that you had to have jump packs to include lemartes then when it was pointed out to me that I didn't need to I was over joyed, and at that moment I swapped all my jump packs for power weapons cue evil laughter...
