New to 5th Edition and New 5th Edition BA

Hello fellow battle brothers,

As you can see from the topic description I'm a new 5th edition player. I've been playing 40k on and off for about 7 years. I have always loved and collected the Blood Angels and have a basic 1000 pt army to play with friends and what not. Now I love the game very much but really have only played about 5-15 games ever (some of them were with different armies) but the 40k world is my favorite sci-fi world and I read countless novels and whatnot. So far I have.

 

1 Tactical Squad

1 Captain

1 Chaplain

1 Death Company

1 Assault Squad

1 Scout Sniper Squad

1 Baal Predator

1 Furioso Dreadnought

 

I'm new to the forums obviously but I was just wondering what you Sternguard out there have in mind and if you can ease this neophyte along the true path.

Thank you.

You have a strong foundation for an army, and in the end it's simply going to be what you want to play, whether it's mechanised or Jump Infantry based. The Blood Angels have a wide variety of choice and pretty much any play-style can be accommodated.

 

Just for a quick 1000 pt list using the items you listed:

 

 

1x Reclusiarch

--Infernus Pistol

 

Death Company (x7)

--2x Power Weapon

--1x Infernus Pistol

--1x Power Fist

--Rhino

 

Assault Squad (x10)

--2x Meltagun

--Power Fist

 

Scout Squad (x5)

--Sniper Rifles

 

Ball Predator

--Twin-Linked Assault Cannon

 

Librarian Furioso Dreadnought

--Wings of Sanguinius

--Might of Heroes

 

 

1000/1000

 

 

If you have any other questions or whatnot feel free to contact me at AIM: thegrinningman66, msn: the_grinning_man@yahoo.com

 

 

As I said, there are a lot of variations on what you can do and how to play, a better idea of what you wish to accomplish would be best.

You have a fantastic starting point for the army i suggest you look into some heavy hitters. maybe a predator or dev squad you could even go with something like a speeder if cash is a problem it's got some big guns fairly cheap (points and cash). I suggest you accentuate the speed of the army which is one of the greatest assets.
