Ughhhh, got stuck in the warp-stuff of RL for quite some time. What millennium is t?
I'm in desperate need of breaking the painting block I've been experiencing lately and I'm guessing there's no better way then with the sons of Sanguinius. 

Lovely job, Spagunk!

The Year is M(4)2.021, the feast of Sanguinala is almost upon us, and you have ~24 days to complete any 2021 goals you have! 

 

I've been jumping between armies a bit, which has kept things fresh, as well as some one-off paint for the joy of it pieces (which I don't do often enough). Any low hanging fruit you can go back and finish on another model, squad insignia or such?

Hello brothers and sisters,

 

It has been a long time since I've walked these halls. I've been MIA a lot due to fighting the good fight on the COVID fronts. I'm hopefully back for the forseeable future. I've missed you all! I haven't even painted or assembled a Carmine Blade in over a year. BUT! I'm back none-the-less!~

Any advice for someone who started with SWs but is considering a switch to Blood Angels?

right now I have a unit of Assault TDA, 5x incursor/infiltrators, am indomitus captain, an imdomitus LT, a primaris librarian, and 2x Impulsors for my Blood Angels

I play both BAs and SWs. Whiel they are both melee orientated, they have different tricks up their sleaves and play differently enough that I don't feel like they overlap much.

 

I would look to build towards a Battalion to begin with so you will need some more Troops. Infiltrators and Incurors are both solid for BAs with me leaning towards Infiltrators as they can help keep the midfield clear. All of the Troop choices in the codex are solid although Intercessors with Auto Bolt Rifles and a melee weapon on the Serg synergise quiet nicely with our abilities.

 

Then it is a question of what you want for your melee elites. There is a good analysis of the different melee units here: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/372520-best-melee-units/

Congrats on the win! The 3x troops worked for you then? How did Astorath pull his weight? I recall seeing him used in early 8th/9th? But not much since. 

The troops were great. Played them very cagey. And Astorath was an absolute unit. Gave out +1 to hit every turn with mass of doom, and then turned into an absolute wrecking ball t3+ with flat 4 damage, 7 attacks hitting on 2s.

Great seeing you guys again!
Fantastic news on the win Keebs! That's a really nice list and not obvious which is definitely a plus. From what I recall of your exploits, you're a pretty damn good player so I'm not surprised to see you made it work :thumbsup:
