Your Chaplain costs 50 points....

 

So.  Much.  Hate.

 

Edit- Seriously.  Lots and lots of hate.

 

Edit 2- Haaaaaaaaate!

 

Edit 3- See Edits 1 and 2.

 

Edit 4- Maybe now they'll finally be able to sell that ridiculous Chaplain/Command Squad/Razorback bundle?  Also, hate.

 

Typo on my part. He's 90 points.

 

Just to double check here, i read that the Sanguinor is the cost of a Raven - Harrower has him listed as cost of a Land Raider?  Don't think id pay a landraider for his abilities :/  A raven, however! 

 

 

This was my bad too. He's 200 points. Updated the post with a couple more things. Looks like Libby Dreads can take a DP as dedicated.

Also can we double up on Baal strike force?

 

There's no reason you can't. Doubling CADs is a quality of Detachments, not a quality of the CAD. Unless there's some meta-Detachment rule embedded in the BAD that bans it - like how the Allied Detachment says that you can only have one AD per CAD, and the AD's faction is limited and can't contain your Warlord and etc - then nothing's stopping you from going double BAD.

So, wait... if Combined Arms Detachments are now CADs, and Allied Detachments are ADs, and Baal Strike Force Detachments are BAD, does that mean that Hive Fleet Detachments are HAD? What do we call the Dark Eldar one? DAD?

Wow, I've just finished reading through the 20 or so pages since Pascalnz and Duke Danse Macabre started spilling the beans. As others have said, eternally grateful to you guys!

 

Also as others have said, a forum-wide congratulations on being the best Blood Angels community out there. I was appalled by the whining and moaning on some other forums - call yourselves Blood Angels?!

 

I'm extremely excited and positive about the codex and can't wait to get my hands on it. Please don't be late Mr. Postman!!

 

 

Edit:

 

There's a good thread in the Tacticia forum about Gun-slinging VAS. Bolt and Grav are the way to go apparently.

Would you mind posting a link to that?

Looks like BA also get their own Painting Guides with Duncan:

 

 

 

Really like these vids :>

 

...might be a bit off topic though...

 

Edit: Also, seems like the BA are the first ones to actually have FW stuff included in their Tutorial Vids

Quick note, I'm not sure if this is a deal or not, but Blood Angel Tac squads and Sanguinary Priests are selling for cheaper on the GW website. The Priest is $18, while the squad is $26.

Ha, those are the UK prices with a $ instead of a £!!

I think it's a mistake - snap em up before they fix it!

Hm, while nothing really got me excited, some of the rules compiled on the mega leak got me thinking.

I might drop my SM allied detachment in favour of a BA detachment for my SW.

TWC and long ranged support from SW and aggressive JP elements from BA.

If I can manage to find some combination that pleases me more than Grav Cents + Tiggy in a drop pod, then consider me aboard.

As of right now I was thinking MSU tacs in RB as troops, grav bikes in FA, Jump units in Elite.

I prefer the look of that army, but I am not yet sold on it's effectiveness though.

 

Also, one small but vital question. Does the effect of the Blood Chalice and the FnP glove on the Sang Priest only work for units from C:BA or any unit regardless of origin?

While its cool that the Flesh Tearers get some love, the formation screams "CHARGE ALL THE THINGS" which has me wondering why they want 3 tac squads (a minimum of 15 bodies, mind you - all of which can be stuffed in a razor back) and only 1 assault and 1 Vanguad Vet squads.

 

Would have made more sense to have 2 Tac, 2 Assault 1 VV, no?

I get that - if it were blood angels. All that iconography is quite wasted on Flesh Tearers, doncha' think? :p

 

Either way, I somehow need to find the money to : Buy the Codex, 10 Sanguinary Guard, 10-15 DC and some BA HQs...

 

Yay x-mas! :p
