Jump pack DC are too expensive... If you want DC either go with the super cheap route of a rhino or the more expensive but amazing option of a stormraven and team them up with lemartes and a DC Dread.

actually i use a land raider redeemer for DC transport, although should i buy a second stormraven, a BA battle force, or a dev squad

 

I would say a stormraven or the devs, sack the BA battleforce.

 

I would go for the raven if it's DC you want cos it's the only real way to get lemartes in there and he's potentially lethal + a DC Dreadnaught thrown into the mix will annihilate your opponent.

Depends what you want really.. A second Baal predator is a really good idea as they are great in pairs! Other than that maybe stenguard and a drop pod? That's what I'm planning on getting soon but I think I'm gonna paint them up as death watch and make them counts as stenguard.

i think i'll go with sternguard they're more mobile then devs, although i did read that topic and i was thinking about doing that (death watch).

well i guess this is the new shopping list

 

land raider achilles (games day)

sternguard squad

sanguinary priest

drop pod (maybe, that or use the stormraven)

The best way to build a squad of stengaurd is to use a tactical squad and you can build combi weapons from a bolter and a hand flamer or infernos pistol etc! You can buy metal stenguard models but it's your choice really.

 

What's the land raider achillies?

its a forge world land raider with sponson twin linked multi-meltas and a front mounted thunderfire cannon.

 

Holy :cuss :D

 

Are these LR variants legal?

Only in Apoc or with opponent's permission.

ok guys thanks for all the feed back, however now i have a new problem.

 

yesterday i bought the grey knight codex to start it as a second army (just gonna let that sink in ;) )

while i was there i also bought a box of termies and crowe.

 

now i've decided that my last two purchases (for a while) for my BA army will be sternguard and an achilles

but im not sure on what to do here, i.e. should i buy another box of GK termies or save for the achilles (don't want to pay FW shipping, games day = perfect opportunity)

 

so can you help me?

I thought the achilles couldn't be taken by blood angels? I haven't heard anything since they first came out though.

 

Anyway, I like 10 sternguard, combi melta x8 + meltax2, in a drop pod and break into combat squads when you hit the ground between two heavy tanks (but I am usually playing against I-guard so this is easy).

 

So the plastic components to make a cool stern guard unit and a drop pod are my vote as to what you should get next (or last, or whatever it is you are doing now)
