I had a look at the Blood Angel book this afternoon and now i'm really tempted to do a list. With the knowledge that Astorath the Grim - that vampire angel with the big axe - allows you to do six squads (that's ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY maximum) of Death Company, I really really wanted to do a full Death Company list.
This list uses 3 HQs, but it's only because it's a first thought. It's essentially a Flesh Tearer list gone crazy.
Gabriel Seth - 160
Death Company Tycho - 175
Astorath the Grim - 220
Chaplain - 100
Chaplain - 100
Sanguinary Priest with Jump Pack - 75
Sanguinary Priest - 50
Sanguinary Priest - 50
8 Death Company in Rhino. 1 with Power Weapon - 225
8 Death Company in Rhino. 1 with Power Weapon - 225
5 Death Company with Jump Packs - 210
All the guys with Jump Packs are in one squad, while the Rhinos are filled with the Footsloggers. It's a fun combat list at heart with Seth's Strength 8 Rending hits and all, but it's just so that I have a chance to get as many Death Company as possible! I'll actually be using Sanguinary Guard as my death company as although Dante allows them to be taken En Masse, they cost 200pts for just five FREAKING guys and you can't have any more than 5 per squad! Even with 6 troops it's just suicidal to take them as actual guard.
My actual Death Company parts will be used essentially as a Flesh Tearer Upgrade Sprue a la Space Wolves :)
Thoughts?
