Not sure if I should change up the Libby's powers, and I have him with the JP so he can jump around the board and be mobile. I also keep the one assault squad with the JP's with the Libby and they protect him and just kill gak. The backs go steam ahead and capture objectives and the the Scouts sit back or outflank. I also use the termies with the priest as a hammer to beat the crap out of heavy hitters.



We are winged salvation, but we are a terrible, final salvation, and our wings embrace the horizon with fire. We are the Blood Angels. To confront us is to die, and death is my remit, my reality, my unbounded domain. I have known death, and defeated it, claimed it as my own. To my cost, to my strength, death is my one gift to bestow, and I am nothing if not generous.

Couple of rules of thumb for listhammering:

- Never mix armor types in squads. If you're going to run a priest with a terminator squad, then find the points to put the priest in terminator armor.

- Blood Angels librarians actually only have one power, plus Shield of Sanguinius. Yes, it's just that good.

- Vehicles equipped with flamers are just plain Doing It Wrong™. Assault cannons are pretty much the best weapon in the entire space marine armory (at everything but popping AV12, ironically enough). Spam them whenever possible, but not at the cost of las/plas razorbacks.

- Pick one. Mechanized or foot. Mixing the two rarely, if ever, works. Target saturation is key to giving your opponent a hard time. To put it bluntly, if you have 3 tanks on the table, you'll have 3 steaming piles of wreckage by the end of turn 1, or turn 2 at the absolute latest. If you drop 12 tanks on the table, then you're on the right track (yes, it can be done. 6 MSU las/plas 'backs + 3 "naked" Baals + 3 "naked" predators will give just about anyone a heartattack).

- A sergeant in motion outranks an officer who doesn't know what the is going on.
- An ordnance specialist at a flat run outranks everybody.
- I'm not Jesus, but I can turn water into Kool-Aid.

I agree with Chesh on target saturation.

You can switch from 10 JP assault marine into 9 assault marine in a Rhino so the priest can be there and give FNP bubble to the Rhino and the two Razorbacks.

Librarian can take a Terminator Armour and Stormshield to join the Terminator squad in the Redeemer.

That way you have everybody meched up and a single priest can give the assault squad in Rhino + the Terminators in LR FNP bubble and furious charge.
