Hello people, I started collecting Space Marines way back in 1993 and still building my collection Don't know if it's getting out of hand!
Any way if any one is interested here is a list of my ever growing Dark Angel Army

Dark Angel 3rd Company

Inner Circle

Grand Master Azrael
Ezekiel Grand Master of Librarians
Asmodai Interrogator Chaplian
Brother Bethor

Death Wing

2 Terminator Squads

Full battle company

1 Captain
1 Chaplain
1 Standard Barer
1 Tech marine
1 Medic

Command Squad has a Predator for support

3rd Company Squads

Tactical Squad 1 with a Rhino For Transport.
Tactical Squad 2 with a Rhino For Transport.
Tactical Squad 3
Tactical Squad 4
Tactical Squad 5
Tactical Squad 6

Assault Squad 7 with Jump Packs and a Razorback for support
Assault Squad 8 with Jump Packs

Devastator Squad 9 with 4 Heavy weapons and a Whirlwind for support
Devastator Squad 10 with 4 Heavy Weapons and a Whirlwind for support

I want to get enough rhinos for the rest of the four Tactical and the two Devastator squads and another Razorback for the Assault Squad support.
Now this may seem greedy and maybe a bit over the top. Any thoughts on my Army List?

Here is the bad news: If you want to use your DA codex, you only have 1 choice: a Deathwing builds (lots of Deathwings). If you are ok with using the generic Space Marine codex, I am sure we can put together a list for you.

Since for 6th edition, psychic power is the win, I am thinking of the following:

Ezekiel - count-as Epistolary librarian
Force Sword, Bolt Pistol, Epistolary, Null Zone, The Avenger

Grand Master Azrael - count-as Captain
Combi-plasma, Artificer Armour, Hellfire Rounds, Relic Blade

A Command Squad
- Company Champion
- Standard Bearer
- Apothecary
- 2x Veterans

Elites
10-man Terminator Squad (whichever is the variant that you have models for)
10-man Sternguard squad w/ Rhino transport (2x Heavy Flamer 4x Combi-melta)

Troops
- 10-man Tactical w/ Combi-plasma, Plasmagun, Lascannon
- 10-man Tactical w/ Combi-melta, Meltagun, ML
- 10-man Tactical w/ Combi-melta, Meltagun, ML

Fast Attack
10-man Assault Squad, 2 plasma pistols, 1 power weapon, meltabomb.

Heavy Support
Devastator - 1x Lascannon, 3x ML
Devastator - 1x Lascannon, 3x ML
Predator - Autocannon Lascannon sponsons

I wouldn't get more Rhinos. With 6th edition, weak transports are no longer king.

I've had a lot of success using hybrid builds with the DA codex. It doesn't all have to be Deathwing. If you come at the game with decent strategy and avoid point sinks, the DA codex is still pretty good.

It's only real disadvantage is that things are expensive enough that each point needs to count, unlike with C:SM where you can throw points away thanks to cheap models.

OP, that's a nice list of models - are you planning on using them for gaming?

As someone else said the best build right now is DW with some raven wing thrown in. Good news is that we should be having a new codex coming out soon enough to give us a much needed update.


All that said, still, impressive collection!
