As we say at my FLGS, there's always those randoms who show up with blood angels.

BA being over played and over powered is older than television, its just even more prominent now with the new dex.

We're watching you... scum.

In late M41 the Blood Angels went rogue (Note the correct spelling) and invaded Ultramar. Coincidentally the Utramarines were on the other side of the galaxy when this happened and Ultramar was quickly taken.


Sorry but last time I looked blood angels were flawed but not traitor marines

That sarcasm went right over your head, son.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

Ultramarines are for the young noob kids that want to start play warhammer 40k (excluding people who played them for a long time)

owever, if they forgot the paint them and got to know the game a bit more then they will make the BA. (see above)

And there are a few GK armies but In my GW shop there is a good mix of everything, there is atleast an army of each, even sisters of battle!

Also an inquisitor army!!! (basicly GK but no GK in the army lo)

Uh, really? Ultramarines are for noobs and kids, and real men play Blood Angels and Grey Knights?

Sometimes the manager at my local GW store organises a huge apocalypse game that a lot of players go to. I have been to 2, and each time, at least 4 BA armies were present... at a gathering of about 10 players. Last time, 3 of the other armies were GK.... it just gets worse and worse!!!

Blood Angels will replace Ultramarines when there's a dozen "why do we hate BA?"... "do the BA really rock"... "stupid BA!"... "I think the BA are cool"... "I think the BA are dumb" threads on every page of the DakkaDakka forum.
