= 2500
2 stormravens contain HG and a lib dread, third raven has meph+lib in TDA and a furioso, so each raven has shield, and a lance/melta combo. 6 MM, 3 of them TL, 5 double melta squads for moar antitank, and 10 flame templates is nice for horde grilling. Can deep strike everything if going second, and the list probably works best that way, but can also deploy if wanted. IMO the list can deal with whatever it ends up facing, but it cant take too much of a beating itself.
C&C appreciated!!

This list needs more troops, with that said, I'd ditch the speeders and the honor guards in order to fill up the assult squads.

Mephiston and librarian are two diffrent units and cant be in the same vehicle since Meph aint a IC.
And does Shield grant vehicles the Obscured status? Because if it doesn't then you're SOL for your ravens cover saves.
I only run 2 stormravens, and i equip them to the teeth with anti tank goodness, and then put small 5 man assault squad, a priest w/ PW, and a librarian w/ Rage and Sword.
Although i know its not the most efficient use, it does a lot of damage on the charge.

The lib can join mephiston so they can go in the same raven
shield gives the ravens a 5+ coversave.
The troops wont probably be targeted that much as they really arent much of a threat, and filling them out wont help the role that they are fulfilling (antitank).

GW BA FAQ
Q: Do vehicles gain a cover save from Shield of
Sanguinius?
A: Yes.
Getting into the semantics of "GW gave the vehicle a cover save it can't use" would be rather slowed.
I would foresee the list doing better against some then others. If your DS alpha strike with the ravens didn't go well, you could be in a world of hurt against some armies. Also, as stubby pointed out, meph is illegally configured and DS in melta/multi-melta range will put you typically in range of enemy hoods so don't bank on your psy stuff.
Libby can not join Meph, can't join units consisting of only every one model.. aka meph

BRB pg 48
"In order to join a unit, an independant character simply has to move so that he is within the 2" coherency distance of a friendly unit."
Blood Angels codex, pg 82
Mephiston, Lord of Death
Unit composition:
1 (Unique)
No Independant Character special rule.
Why cant the Libby join meph? Meph isnt a character or MC, therefore he is a unit. Cant an IC join a unit that has lost all of its models except 1?

Same page 48 BRB first paragraph 2nd sentence "They canot however, join vehicle squadrons and units that always consist of a single model.
Meph is a loner, sorry.
You can join a unit of only one model if it ever has the ability to be more then one model in the unit. Lone survivor meets that req.

2500 is a pretty big game and if you roll and get objectives your going to need a few more than just 5 guys holding one. One well place template and your in trouble. I do like the triple storm raven though. Blood Angels strength lies in the assault.
