LutherMax Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 If you clicked on this expecting to find a list of the Blood Angels formations so far, I'm sorry. I am actually asking if someone can provide that information as I don't have it, and I think a resource list would be useful for many. I.e. Formation X - WD47 etc. Any kind souls willing to oblige?

tsijben Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Sure, when I get home :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300977-list-of-formations/#findComment-3900060 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 This will indeed be very handy. Can we also get a break of units needed? I'll likely be basing what issues of WD I pick depending on what is needed for each formation. I know the epubs are only $3.99 but when you add that to everything else I've picked up in the past month, well let's just say my wife is getting some new shoes.

LutherMax Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 Thanks for the info TOM but I'm after references for the original formations so I can see all the details, command benefits etc. I think posting those would be against the rules?

Brother apocalyptic Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Those 3 are listed in wd 47. And as you said, against rules to post rules and the kind in the forum Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300977-list-of-formations/#findComment-3900116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I believe you're right. I know for a fact we can't post point costs. We can definitely points where formations can be found and what units are required to meet the requirements for the formation.

LutherMax Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 Thanks for the info all - very useful indeed! Looks like I need a copy of WD47 and Exterminatus... I love the idea of charging from deep strike, not so sure about buying another two Stormravens though!

tsijben Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I'm not sure if I would like to use that. You are paying 1020 points just to be able to Charge after Deep Striking, and you don't even have units to Deep Strike at this point. Three Stormravens/Tactical Squads seems a bit expensive for a trick that I will probably enjoy only once.

LutherMax Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 Yeah I agree with you there. I think I'll try out some of the smaller ones like Angel's Wrath first and see how effective they are attached to a core army.
