This is my first thought of my new Blood Angles list would be. Comments and criticisms were always welcome.

Looks like you qualify for 4 Death Company. Even without a chaplain to keep them in line... find 20 pts to get them jump packs. 4 FNP/Rending marines is worth fielding.

I would suggest lose the PP on the assault marines and try to get a 2nd rhino for your other tactical marines.

for larger points army of game, should i get more Assault Marines as well as Death Company, or Allied GKT to deal with nasty Daemons?

I would drop the dreadnaught and the terminators. Use these points to field Lemartes or a generic chaplain with a jump pack. You still will have a lot of points left over. Definitely add a rhino for the second tactical squad and jump packs for the DC. Personally I like to field two Baals.

Corbs is much better then a chappy or lemartes... his effect hits everyone.

I have to disagree with the dropping of the termis... they are darned good with the new cyclone rules

The dread I agree with

Dropping The dread I agree with

Remember that the BA CML has only one shot... It's really not that great. Also you cannot take a teleport homer which forces you to spend 50 more points for a drop pod. My vision of any BA army is a highly mobile force and termies don't fit in with that aspect.

here is a revised list:

HQ:

Dante, Lord of the Blood Angles - 200

Elite:

Death Company x4 - 20
Jump Pack
Dreadnough - 125
Dreadnought CCW, Strom Bolter, Multi-melta,
Terminators x5 - 200
Strom Bolter, Power Fist
Sergeant w/ Power Sword, Strom Bolter
Scout x5 - 120

Troops:

Tactical Marine x10 - 270
Bolter, Bolt Pistol, Flag/ Krak Grenades, 1 Flamer, 1 missile launcher
Sergeant w/ Power fist, Bolt pistol
Rhino

Tactical Marine x10 - 245
Bolter, Bolt Pistol, Flag/ Krak Grenades, 1 Flamer, 1 missile launcher
Sergeant w/ Chainsword, Bolt pistol
Rhino

Assault Marine x5 - 170
Bolt pistols, Chainsword,
Sergeant w/ Plasma Pistol, Power sword

Heavy:

Baal Predator - 150
Twin-link Assault Cannon, 2 Heavy Bolters, Strom Bolter,
Hunter-Killer Missile

I still keep Baal Pred, tremies, and scouts for points values and fit on my budgets.

Ball Pred is a BA's signature war marchine that i don't want to drop away from my list because TL Auto cannon always useful when against a horde or heavy armored troops. although it might be a trouble to kill tanks, but it still was a worth taking.

i believe you're right for dropping scouts for more assault marines as a style of this chapter. but on some case those little guys would still useful with sniping the foes down with pinning and rending (thought i didn't eventually buy a battleforce and AOBR packages yet to test how it works).

here a list that revised a little:

You may want to pay for the extra DC since they are just plain awesome. A full unit of 10 is great!

if this is a good idea, i think i would drop Dante for Chaplin and Captain. although Dante was god-like in CC, but it took points heavily but effective on any kind of list. however, without Chaplin to keep DC in line would be trouble.

if a drop scout squad i can add as many walking DC as 9.

you could drop the scouts and the dread for the jump pack DC.

Melta guns in your squads does wonders also

At least include another death company, a unit of 4 isn't really that effective

I prefer to take 2 baal predators, sit them back and have a massive fire base, then again local gamers here love lots of horde armys.... so it may just be me

I still don't see the benefits of the scouts in this? spend the points on a more mobile units , its seems as though the rest of ur army can move so why have these ones stationary?

I think you are limited to one squad of DC. They must have a chaplain or Corbulo to lead them.
