So, I wanted to try something a little different with my blood angels for some friendly games this weekend, and came up with the following list. How bad do you think Im going to get beat down ?

HQ:
Mephiston
Gabriel Seth
Honor Guard (plasma guns, bolt pistols) - In Drop Pod with Seth

Troops:
2 Assault Squads, (2 melta per, melta bombs on sgt)

Elites:
Sternguard x10, in drop pod
Furioso with frag cannon and heavy flamer in pod
2x Sanguinary priests with jump packs (with assault squads)

Fast attack
Scout bikers with cluster mines


- One thing to note, my local meta doesnt have tons of vehicles (no leafblowers, woot!) so its not as much of a concern to be super melta heavy

well what armies are you expecting to face?

It will most likely be:
BA player, with Dante, astorath, 3 sang guard and 2 assault squads
Wolf player with 2 Grey hunters, decked out wolf guard, long fangs and thunderwolves
Tau player with 2 fire warrior, 2 kroot, and the rest crisis and broadsides
Eldar player spamming war walkers, jetbike seer council, and dire avengers in serpents, with some fire dragon backup
Chaos player with abbadon and some termies in a land raider, obliterators and vindicators and probably thousand sons

If you plan on deep striking the whole army, thats fine, but be ready to face some serious death from the tau due to your army coming on the table 500 points at a time.

without the reserves this list can be pretty nasty.
