Ymmot's Blood Angels

[Ymmot (M.I.A)]

So here's my no frills Blood Angels, best part about this list?

I already have most of it and it won't cost me any additional money(save buying paint.)

Captain
terminator armor
2 lightning claws

Librarian
terminator armor
blood lance
sanguine sword

10 terminators
heavy flamer
assault cannon
chainfist

chaplain
jump pack

sanguinary priest

tac squad
missile launcher
flamer
powerfist
teleport homer
Razor back

10 assault marines
x2 meltaguns
+powerfist

speeder
multimelta
missile launchers

total 1500


Sanguinary priest rides with half of the tac squad in the Razorback, keeping that squad alive with FNP so the terminators along with HQs can arrive via deep strike next to the teleport homer with out having to worry about scatter.


Captain, Librarian, and Terminators are all from Space Hulk, so I suppose I'll be buying some 40mm bases for them as well...everything else is cobbled together from stuff I already have laying around.


In a month or so when I buy the codex I may buy myself some fancy BA toys, this is what I'm thinking I should get to round my list out to an even 2000 points.

Baal Predator
Heavy bolter sponsons
Dozer blade

10 death company
x4 powerfists
Rhino

[ElegaicRequiem]

Don't forget to move the tac half with the SP along with the termies - keeping them six inches away or less so that you have termies with FNP.

Mmm... Even better than the two wound termies.

2nd idea for 2000 points!

Captain 100
+terminator armor
x2 lightning claws

Librarian
+terminator armor
blood lance
sanguine sword

tac squad
+missile launcher
+flamer
+powerfist
+teleport homer
Razor back

10 assault marines
x2 meltaguns
+powerfist

10 Death Company
x4 powerfists

10 terminators
+heavy flamer
+assault cannon
+chainfist

chaplain

Sanguinary Priest

Sanguinary Priest
+jumppack


Land Raider Crusader


total 2000


DC + Chaplain ride in LR. Priests pass the chalice around. Terminators teleport in one big squad along with both HQs, priest on foot leaves tatical squad and joins terminators...big scary wall of death smashes up anything in the way.

[Ymmot (M.I.A)]

Cut my list down to 1000 points until I get some more funds.

Librarian
+terminator armor with stormbolter
blood lance
sanguine sword

10 assault marines
+powerfist
x2 meltaguns

Tactical Squad
+powerfist
+flamer
+missile launcher
+teleport homer
Rhino

Sanguinary Priest

Chaplain
+jump pack

5 Terminators



first 600 points are almost painted!

I find it helps me to write a list and stick with it when it comes to getting the first part of an army painted.

Not really. Plasma and melta still ignore FNP, as does everything that is AP2 or AP1.

[ElegaicRequiem]

It'll help against the las pistols that seem to regularly kill them, though.

People are just going to accuse all BA players of cheese when the Sanguinary Priests start handing out the FNP, but the short range means template weapons will wreak havoc.

I've found the FC/FNP bubbles to be game winners for me of late, as it's perfect for clearing out and then holding objectives - as well as generally chopping stuff up and sitting back as a light rain patters off the armour.

For the OP's list purposes, a Reclusiarch in TDA might be a better bet for the Termies (edit: than the Captain) - re-rolls to hit on the charge are a wonderful thing (as well as being one of my favourite models).

[Ymmot (M.I.A)]

With out the priest I lose a lot of that BA flavor and the list starts to taste a lot like vanilla...

I think they are essential for the theme I'm going for...

and heck, FNP+Furious Charge...sounds like good times.




Bah, why do they have to have yellow helmets...
