Been messing around with the new blood angel formations and i've come up witha list that has lots of bodies, Obj Sec MSU, and a potential Deathstar with lots of alpha strike.


This list focuses on the Alpha or Beta strike. Almost my entire army can DS and either charge or shoot twice the first turn so this list has huge alpha strike potential. The tac marines are all combat squadded for 6 Obj Sec units, the Captain rides around solo acquiring points/smashing things solo/joining up with Dante to form a Death Star. I chose a normal dread as he was 25 pts cheaper/I already had 3 droppods/the double tapping is nice for a shooty dread. His goal is to camp on an objective and snipe things. LMK what you guys think, what would you change?

Drop a few marines and add a 3 man bike squad to the captain, so you'v got a 12 grav shot alpha strike with that squad. Give captain powerfist/stormshield/combi-grav. Give biker sarge combi-grav.

The alone biker seems problematic

I addressed that.

Sorry didn't read your post I am on mobile

Grav bikers are always a good addition.
