Long time lurker and first time posting so here is an army list I am working on. Please correct me if I have misread any rules, for I am human. =)
Total: 1847
Primary: 972
HQ:
Sammael (Sableclaw)
Troops:
2x RAS(6 strong w/ 2plasma, Sgt's w/ melta bombs and MM attack bike)
Fast:
2x typhoon's w/ HB
2x tornado's double HF
Allied: 875
HQ:
Blood Angel Librarian on bike w/PAxe, Powers will be Blood Lance, and Fear of the Darkness
Elite:
Sanguinary Priest w/ JP
Troops:
2x 10man Assault Squads sgt's w/ PAxe/SS, and melta bombs
Heavy:
Stormraven w/ TLMM/TLAssault Cannon, and Extra armor

The whole idea of this list is the "rodeo" style of play. Using the Ravenwing bikes to provide a wall for the Blood angels to move up behind them and then assaulting over the top of them to get into close combat. The flamer speeders are a unit deletion squad, the attack bikes may or may not outflank depending on the situation. I choose the Sableclaw variant of Sammy to keep a overall shooty feel to the army to soften things up before I can get the blood angels to do what they do best. I feel that this isnt the most tournament savvy list but I have a lot of fun playing this style of list and will continue to refine my strategies. I am a long time Blood Angel player and my assault squads don't have "assault" weapons for a reason I have had better luck with them being bare-bones with the sgt having upgrades. Advice/Opinions more then welcome. Thanks.

Good list with a strong theme. Tough I do think that you could benefit more from Libby by giving him JP and Shield of Sang to help the Assault Squads.

I still think that at least one squad should have special weapons because I see almost no harm on having flamers in CC-squad. (It's just awesome when my IG friend charges on squad with 2 flamers, forgets wall of fire and loses 5 guys before fight). And meltas help you to bring down vehicles or soften some terminators before assault.

Always take special weapons in BA ASM squads.

Certainly use shield of sanguinius on your libby for this list.
