Alright Dakka, I come to you with a problem. I am bored of my Blood Angels. Not the army book, as it is probably my favorite book in any of the game systems I play. No, I can't seem to build any list but one. I have played the same list for a year, and I want a change. The problem is that I can't think of what to change. So here is my proposal: The local GW is having a tounrement at the end of the month. The points limit is 1500. If ONE good person can write me a list, I will take it to this tournement. I will do a battle report on the whole thing. This could be the worst list on the planet, but I will play it. So, what say you, people of Dakkadakka, will you mix up my army.

So I have at my disposal:
The Sanguinor
2 Reclusiarchs, one with a PP and one with a combi-melta
3 Captains, one from AOBR, one with a sb/pf and one with a JP/TH
3 Librarins, two with PP and one in terminator armour with storm bolter
1 Honour Guard squad with a Banner, a blood champion and 2 honor guard with PP/PW
1 Furioso Librarian Dreadnought
5 Terminators (AOBR)
6 Assault Terminators with 3 Hammers and 3 Claws
5 Sternguard
1 Techmarine
3 Priests with Power weapons
1 Tac squad with Plasma gun, Plasma cannon, Power fist and combi-plasma
1 Tac squad with Flamer, Plasma cannon and Powerfist
2 5 man assault squads with Powerfists and melta guns
1 10 man assault squad with two flamers, a power weapon and melta bombs
2 5 man scout squads with sniper rifles and missile launchers. (Camo-cloacks)
2 Razorbacks with with TL-lascannons, storm bolters and dozer blades
1 Razorback with Las-plas and a dozer blade
1 landraider with a stormbolter
1 drop pod with a storm bolter
1 Landspeeder with a multi-melta
1 Baal predator with a TL-assault cannon (and a possible storm bolter)
2 vindicators with siege sheilds
1 Storm raven with TL-assault cannon, TL-MM and Hurricane bolters
3 Devastator squads, one with Lascannons, one with missile launchers and one with heavy bolters. (Sargents have boltguns)
And an unknow amount of Death company (Maybe 8, with mixed equitment)

Even if you don't want to write a whole list, just throw out ideas like "Use all of your scouts" or "Don't use tanks". I want to make a list that is fun, but ultimently it is up to you, the community, to decied what I bring to the 1500 point tournement, and I will do a battle report for the tournement with the list made here.

Get to writing!

Librarian in Terminator Armor, 130
5 Assault Terminators, 3 Hammers, 2 Claws, 215
dedicated Landraider w/ MM, 260
Tactical Squad, Plas Spam, PF, Drop Pod with Beacon, 265
5 Scout Snipers, ML, Cloaks, Homing Beacon, 125
5 Scout Snipers, ML, Cloaks, Homing Beacon, 125
5 Vanguard Veterans, Jump Packs, 165
5 Vanguard Veterans, Jump Packs, 165
1450

It's a Deepstrike list. The Scouts and Tactical Squad lay the ground work. Then you Deepstrike the Landraider and Vanguards (remember, the Sarge comes with a PW). I left you points to change out stuff for Power Fists or whatever you want. I wanted to take Corbulo for his magic dice.

I love it! I will probably end up useing some of the points to get the vanguard vets some Anti-tank options. I actually have a model to use for Corbulo, so that is possible as well. Did you have a pick for the librarians two powers?

For maximum lulz I'd take Blood Boil and either Shield or Rage. I want to take Rage to make him a Chaplain, but Shield would let you Deepstrike the Landraider more aggressively. I suppose you can always pop smoke on the turn you arrive, though.

Corbulo is pretty much impossible to fit. You'd need to strip the Librarian and Tac squads, and you don't quite have the models for that. The points would be better spent on Powerfists on the Vanguard. I'd also like to see more Meltaguns.

too bad it's not 2k points, or I'd recommend the suicidal 11 dreadnaught list

If I had the models, I would.

I love the all deepstrike list, but I am hopeing that more people can post their ideas. Might have the community vote on the list for me to take if there is more than one.

Is this still on? I'm a curious narcissist.

It can be. I was hoping to get more lists posted. I have one I made up which I am very happy with, and your list, which looks fun. I should be posting both lists in a few days to get a vote.

Well for those following, thank you for your input, however due to a recent accident, I don't have access to as many Jump troops as I need for the tournament.

I will still do a Batrep (Hopefully), but I cant run the all drop list.
