Hey guys,
So I jumped on the bandwagon as well and decided to start up Blood Angels. I was hoping for a bit of advice on the list and maybe some feedback on how worthwhile some of these units are.
First and foremost, I want to make a fun army that can be competitive. Currently, I have little strategy to the list as it is outside of keeping things close to my chapter banner and Sanguinor for a lot of extra attacks. :)
HQ
- The Sanguinor - 275
Elites
-Sanguinary Guard - 275
w/ Death Masks
Chapter Banner
Power Fist
Infernus Pistol
-Chaplain
-Sanguinary Priest x 2 - 165
1 w/ Power Weapon & Jump Pack (to go with assault squad)
1 w/ Jump Pack (to join sanguinary guard)
Troops
-Tac Marines x 10 - 245
Plasma Gun/M. Melta
Power Weapon on Sgt.
Rhino
-Tac Marines x 10 - 260
Melta gun/M. Launcher
Power Fist on Sgt and Combi-melta
Rhino
-Assault Squad x 10 - 240
Meltagun x 2
Infernus Pistol/Power Weapon
-Death Company x 9 - 290
Power Weapon
Thunder Hammer
Rhino w/ Extra Armour
1,850 points right on. With this list, the things I know I want are the Death Company, the units of Tac Marines, and the Assault Marines. I feel that Blood Angels have a solid selection of troops choice and want to take advantage of that. The chaplain is necessary too. At least the Sang. Priest to join the assault squad is also necessary, but I'm not entirely sold on the sanguinor or the sanguinary guard yet. Mostly, I want them because I think they look amazing. >.< I feel, however, that for their point costs, I'd be better off with Astorath and another unit of Death Company. :S
Anyways, I'm still new to the list so I recognize there may be little focus, but I just like how hard this list can hit if everything aligns. C&C appreciated! Thanks guys!
