I am building a Dark Angels army. I am trying to create the ideal 500 point build using Belial to get a terminator squad as troops. I created a few slightly different lists, and I'd like some feedback on which one I should finish first. This probably isn't the most ideal tactic, but I am more interested in fielding interesting armies as opposed to min-maxed.

Army 1 (500 pts):
HQ: Belial (190)
Troop: Deathwing Terminator Squad with assault cannon: (240 pts)
Troop: Tactical Squad (70 pts)

Army 2 (500 pts):
HQ: Belial (190)
Troop: Deathwing Terminator Squad with assault cannon and heavy flamer: (250 pts)
Troop: Scout Squad (60 pts)

Army 3 (500 pts):
HQ: Belial (190)
Troop: Deathwing Terminator Squad with cyclone missile launcher and chain fist: (250 pts)
Troop: Scout Squad (60 pts)

There aren't many variations here, but it's just the three that seem most interesting to me. I am trying to focus on the terminators here. Any advice? Thanks.

List 2 is illegal, might have been a typo but only one heavy weapon is permitted on 5 man squads.
For 500 points its too early to tell, but a Greenwing is a fun list to play with,Once you get higher points level ideally youll have 2-3 termie squads(depending on size)
maybe some knight squads and 20-30 marines with points left to spare as you go higher in game level.
