Hi guys.

New BA Player here, just getting serious.

Just purchased a fair old amount of stuff. Think is, no idea what to do with it.

I have two Command Squads.

Three sanguinary guards

A storm Raven

A terminator librarian

Two baal predators

I am 100% lost on how to build these things. I have enough jump packs to give all the honour guards Jump packs as well, and I've built up one Sanguinar Priest with a power ace and a jump pack so far.

Main questions: What do I do in terms of Banners?
What guns do I give the Sanguinary guard? Do I give them death masks?
What do I do for the sponsons for the Baal preds


Halp.

Hello

I have no idea

Bye

In regards to death masks, Do what you please, same with the sanguinary guard guns, and the Baal pred sponsors, you choose, after all there your models, do you plan on gaming with them or just modeling/painting?

I wanna play with them. I am a painter at heart, but I want them to be playable, not just look cool. And playable well, at that

Have fun.

Well then I would suggest getting the codex and making a list - to determine what sponsors etc. or just learn to magnetise them.

Is that three packs of Sanguinary guard or just three models?The Sanguinary is a five man squad. This should be posted in general forum not the intro forum if you want more help.

It's three boxes of Sanguinary Guard.

Sorry, I'll post there right now! Thanks!

Heyo! I am a long time Blood Angels player and may I say the best thing to do especially for your predators and your gunship is to magnetize them! I did it and I'm super happy I did. Actually the gunship all the guns fit quite snugly so you should be able to switch them out without much trouble. I did however magnetize the hurricane bolters. If you want to know how best to do this let me know and I can find the tutorial I used. It's very useful. As far as the Sanguinary guard go, You might as well use death masks if you think they look cool, you can always not pay for them in the game if you don't want to use them. As long as your opponent knows if you paid for them or not, the death masks don't affect wysiwyg like a different weapon might. As far as weapons go... it's trickier. You can always magnetize them too if you want though! One thing you definitely will want though is at least one power fist in each squad! Anyways, PM me if you have more questions!
