Hey guys started building my blood angels force. Wanted a more violent tank heavy army rather then the typical assault marine row.

 

I still wanted it to play and feel like a true blood angels force tho. So fast, lots of assault cannons, and high rate of fire weapons and vehicles.

 

Let me know what you think.

 

I really want to play with the jetbikes also. Tell me what you think.

Blood angels cant have more vehicle "units" then legion astartes. Its a legal list

 

Units that count as legion astartes are preator, chaplain, 2 vets, 1 jetbike squadron equal 5.

 

4 x pred units and 1 leviathan equal 5.

 

So 5 to 5.

 

Dedicated transports dont count against this.

Still not convinced that Sky Slayers are worth taking when you have to pay for the volkite culverins. Shame that they didn't price them like the Sky Hunters.

 

Speaking of... 6 Sky Hunters with 2 culverins is 260 points (you need to save 15 points, right?). You could spend the remaining 30 on adding a Sergeant with a power fist.

 

List looks pretty good though! :)

Unless it specifically says in the Blood Angels rules (which please correct me if I'm wrong), DTs do count as vehicle units. The same way they count as vehicle units for the Dark Angel's Ironwing RoW.

For even more assault cannon shenanigans what about considering dropping the leviathan and replacing it with two elite slot Mortis Contemptors with duel kheres? You'll have points to spare plus some solid anti air if needed.

Could you split up your jet bikes into two squads to fill the Astartes/vehicles ratio?

I like the list but I don't feel that the Levi in a DDP fits with what is otherwise a cool theme.

 

Instead of taking the sky slayer squad why not take a full Command squad instead?

With all those tanks you don't really need more firepower and with two tooled up combat characters you want the squad in combat anyway - give the command squad all power axes, melta bombs (depending on local multi bombing ruling) and combat shields!
