Incoming! Blood Angels
This April the Blood Angels will be re-launched with an all-new Codex and range of plastic and metal miniatures. One of the oldest and noblest of all Space Marine Chapters, the Blood Angels have stood fast against the enemies of the Imperium since the Great Crusade and it was their Primarch Sanguinius, who laid down his life to aid the Emperor against Horus in the final hours of the Warmaster’s rebellion. The new Codex explores the background and history of these superhuman warriors like never before, and contains new artwork depicting some of their greatest battles and most powerful champions.
The Blood Angels have always been a powerful close combat army and have been made even deadlier thanks to a range of specialist wargear, the ability to field Assault Squads as Troops choices, and more Dreadnoughts than any other Space Marine Chapter, including a Death Company Dreadnought and the fabled Furioso Dreadnought. The Sons of Sanguinius will be deep striking onto a tabletop near you this April – now’s the time to practice painting red.

As much as the Blood Angels need a real codex, I'm bummed it's not the Dark Eldar, Necrons, or Tau . . . oh well, one more army down.

Sub-army, you mean.

And this sucks. My army is always mistaken for Blood Angels because the "core" color is red... but my color scheme is quite different aside from that. Now everyone will hop on the Blood Angels bandwagon, and people will think even more-so that my army is BA.

Well as much as i disagree with anooootthhhherrr SM codex at least this is one more down till they redo the much needed Necrons, DE, SoB, etc. etc. etc. and make gaming groups a little more competative and varied. if you look at the glass half full view its a win win eventually

Kind of. This leaves only Black Templars as a variant list.

GW seems to always have a Space Marine chapter up its sleeve!

I am going to feel so sorry for my wife in April.

I just spotted this in my email and thought straight away to post it here but you beat me to it Aenir. SO looking forward to April and my gf is away visiting family that month too. Just need a job to pay for all the Blood Angel goodness!

It was always gonna be them. Space Hulk...........

yup, very true. Their codex was very old and did need an update. I'd have prefered necrons or DE but it's encouraging to see the older books getting the attention they need.

True Aldramelech, my local GW manager has been unofficially confirming them for a while, but its nice to have an official date.
