Hello everyone. So yes, just started to collect Blood Angels and this is my whole army:
-5 terminators
-6 space marines
(that's all, just started 2 days ago).
So what should I buy next?
Assault squad, more marines or what?
THANKS FOR ANSWER!!

Assault marines are the center piece to the BA army

When in doubt get Mephiston out!

Yeah, more Marines first. Up to you to decide what flavor. You'll need a commander, as well.

From there, I'd go with a transport, and then a Dread. It really depends on what you want to do with the army. Are you looking to play mostly friendly games? Then get what appeals to you to play and paint.

Do you have to win to have fun? Look at the 'competitive' builds in this forum. People will tell you that the Blood Angles are not competitive right now - but that only matters if you are planning on playing tournaments. If you are playing for fun - collect whatever fires your imagination. Personally, they are still among my favorite armies.

I am starting to play Blood Angels now, I've been trawling and using this forum for months

What I've found is, Librarians, Sanguinary Priests and 10 man Assault squads...

Still debating support choices though. The top contenders are Predators, Stormravens and Multimelta BIkes though...

Assault Marines for your troops choices, and then a Librarian for your commander is the best way to get started

If you are going to use jump marines, and not mech, I'd add in some drop pods with fragnoughts and sternguards. You need something to keep Eldar and Tau at least kinda entertained. And as always, MM attack bikes, for anti-tank.
