So, I'm gonna get 2 DA forces from the starter, and was doing a list with the actual codex, because the next one maybe is a little bit far, and I don't want my models sit in my desk.
I only have 1 question really, and having in sight the models that I'll get.
1.- Plasma everywhere? I mean, tac squad with 1 plasma rifle, 1 plasma cannon, 1 plasma gun, and bolters, bikes with plasma? Terminators with what?
2.- It's good to mix Belial and Sammael?
3.- What would you do?

There's a thread in news and rumors that will tell you exactly what's in the box set.
You don't need belial to make terminators troops.
Wait for the codex before deciding.

I thought you needed Belial to make DW troops. Sorry for my lack of knowledge, but how do you do it otherwise?

Currently, you do. But what Juraigamer is saying is that in the new's and rumors forum, they're saying you won't need him soon.

Is it still just a rumour?
At the moment are the guys in the set are subpar. You'll have to wait for the new codex.
The best unit with set up is the ravenwing bikers, which seem to be identical to the ones in the ravenwing boxset.
Got out buy a few ravenwing boxsets, this will make you happier. Though ravenwing is tricky and not the most competitive army.

To make a basic DA army though, those units in the starter are good, you can't go wrong with them. It'll keep you versatile.
From personal experience, I wouldn't count on the Assault Cannon to... be helpful at all. I've put mine back in a little baggy with my other bitz and kited my DW with CML all the way.
And for some reason, I prefer my bikers with meltaguns.

130 Belial SS/TH
250 chain fist, assault cannon
235 CML split DV and assault terminator models.
50 put banner and apothecary in there somewhere. Command box.
110 5 marines with plasma gun, meltabombs
80 lasback
115 5 marines with meltagun, power sword
80 lasback
Use command models to get the melta gun and serg.
135 3 bikers with plasma gun.
75 typhoon+MM
75 typhoon+MM
That would be my attempt. The HQs are lack lustre I am afraid. This uses assault terminator box set and command squad box set and 2 landspeeders, also it assumes being able to make Belial somehow.
