d503 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I am heading back to China now and staying for about a year, and this is the last chance to get any GW stuff at a decent price. I am also going to put a mental cap on the blood angel/whitescars army now until it is all painted, so I wondered if there are any glaring omissions in your view. HQ: Terminator reclusiarch Jump pack librarian Seth Astrorath Command squad with magnetised jump packs, champion, priest, flamer Bike command squad with champion and power fist marine Korsarro khan on bike ELITE 6 terminators with chain fists, one with a heavy flamer Furioso dread with fragcannon and blood fist with heavy flamer TROOPS Tac squad, flamer, heavy bolter, power weapon, rhino. Tac squad, flamer, heavy bolter, power weapon, rhino. 10 man RAS 10 man RAS 3 bikes, power weapon, MM attack bike (only troops in a vanilla list) 3 bikes, power weapon, MM attack bike (only troops in a vanilla list) 10 scouts, 4 shotguns, power fist FAST 2 land speeders with multimeltas HEAVY Land raider redeemer, multimelta Rifleman dread Multimelta and heavy flamer AOBR dread 10 devastators, 3 missile launchers, lascannon Predator with twin linked lascannon only Storm raven with lascannons and multimelta Whirlwind OTHER Drop pod Razorback with TLLC Couple of spare heavy weapon/special weapon marines to swap about in the tac or devastator squads. I think, 2 meltagun, multimelta, plasma gun, plasma cannon, 2 assault marines with flamers, 1 assault marine ith meltagun. Also a tac sergeant with a power fist and an assault sergeant with lightning claws.

d503 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 I have a few bits left, so I can add a 5 man walking death company with 5 power weapons to the list, but they are neither made nor converted.

AngelOfDeathXIII Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 How much of this is already painted? If you have to paint a lot I'd go for Sanguinary Guard (nice distraction from all the red and gold) if not I'd go for a Land Raider and go all out in converting him. (Or perhaps a battleforce) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224972-rounding-off-the-collection/#findComment-2691813 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.darkness Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 close combate termies to go in the sstorm raven. they make a deadly combination and i always think that close comat termies suit the blood angels. OR you could get more DC. they are just so cool Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224972-rounding-off-the-collection/#findComment-2691814 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those (and the DC) are probably the models I enjoyed painting the most :o Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224972-rounding-off-the-collection/#findComment-2691829 Share on other sites More sharing options...
garfey Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I'd say definitely pick up a box or two of sanguinary guard - use them for characters, honour guard, veterans, squad sgts, or even as sanguinary guard... You are quite light on the elite slots too - another dread? keep the bits and use it as DC (troops i know) or another furioso / libby? Close combat terminators? Sanguinary Priests? (use the SG box for those :o ) Hope this helps, Garf Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224972-rounding-off-the-collection/#findComment-2691831 Share on other sites More sharing options...

d503 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Okay, maybe a squad of sanguinary guard - I'll have to figure out a way to deal with the wings though. To be honest I'm not a fan - they are way too impractical for 40k IMO. Another apothecary on foot would be nice too. That way I have a terminator, bike, jump pack and foot priest. Thanks guys. Some of them are painted, but most are not. Usually I buy a year's worth of 40k (about 1,500 points usually) and then make it a project for the year. It's all made, and the link in my sig is to the project log. The project log is currently waiting for updates on a finished crusader, tac squad and terminator reclusiarch.

d503 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Assault Terminators, with a SP in TDA in a LRC. While I usually use the regular squad with 5 chainfists, (15 chain fists on the charge with a reclusiarch re-roll is my standard way to hug skimmers and other fast-movers) I have 5 AoBR terminators left, so if I bought a close assault box and did some minor surgery, I could have 5 TH/SS and 5 LC terminators. The crusader is a no-no I'm afraid - one land raider is enough and I do love the redeemer so :drool: Baal predator - never liked them. I would much rather take a regular fast predator destructor for 100 points. I know everyone else is crazy about them, but I don't think they are good value for points.
