Hi there ive got 2 armies both using the vannila dex.

They are themed to a certain extent. But im just worried theyll play to similar...

List one is blood ravens which includes:

2 librareans. 1 terminator.

2 units of 5 terms

2 units of 10 scouts with homers

3 units of tactical msrines with homers (just incase)

I also have 2 vindicators and a basic predator and a dready.

The 2nd list is dark angels and untill the new book comes out theyre using vannilla dex.

The army consist of the contents of 2 dark vengeance boxes (the dark angel stuff) and a stormtalon.

So thats:

A lib

A captain on bike with a bike command squad. (2 plasmas)

2 tactical squads with a plasma- pistol, gun and cannon in each.

10 terms.
Storm talon.

And ill also have another lib 2 masters on foot and 2 limited chaplins...

What would you recomend to difinitivly make sure these 2 armies dont play the same every game?

More bikes and assault troops in the DA list. Unless GW throws a curve ball at us (and they sometimes do), Ravening wing with support should be pretty nasty.

That storm talon and the Terms should have good synergy with the bikes (good ole fast and slow).

For a minimal amount of $, you should be able to add a scoring squad or two of bikes (by the stand alone bikes off ebay from DV), pick up a squad or two of assault marines, and you'll have a pretty solid list.

Well, differentiating the Dark Angels won't be a problem in a few months. Just wait it out.

Yea i was thinking just waiting it out but thanks for the advice... Without buying more theres not a major easy way to do it atm...
