Using this one in a small tourney this weekend, let me know what you guys think.

HQ: Sammael 200 pts
Ezekiel 145 pts
Ravenwing command squad x5, 1x grenade launcher 1x ravenwing company banner

Elite: Deathwing Knights x7
Land raider crusader w deathwing vehicle, and multi-melta

Troops:
Ravenwing attack squad x6 2x multimelta
Land speeder typhoon
Attack bike with multi melta
Ravenwing attack squad x6 2x multimelta
Ravenwing attack squad x4 2x multimelta
Scout squad 5x sniper rifles

Heavy:
Devestator squad x6 4x missile launcher

I feel like I have a good amount of syergy, and options with this list. The devestators, and snipers can sit in the backfield with the land speeder while the rest move up and try to assualt with everything having toughness 5 The only place I'll struggle is with flyers, but that is to be expected with dark angels, I want to prepare for what I can. Also I'm only using models I have and I'm using all my bikes so can't bring anymore. Anyway please tell me what you think.

Looks solid. Consider dropping the spare dev for a perfidious relic for the knights. I assume zeke is going with them?

The most important rule of 40K-Page XVII of the 6th edition rulebook, the figure at the top right of the page. "Shake hands with your opponent and thank them for a good battle and fun experience." Then go out for a beer.

Yes ezekiel will be in the land raider with the knights, he gives off a 6" bubble of +1 weapon strength to my bikers from the land raider hull, and I attach sammael to a standard 6 man squad to give skilled ride so I can hide in terrain with at least 2 bike squads, and hopefully hide the others from LOS if I don't have first turn. I'll most likely outflank with the attack bike, and smaller squad so as not to give an easy first blood. Psyke are powers would likely be 1 from telepathy, 1 from divination.

I like this list. What I would do though is I would consider leaving all of the bikes that dont have skilled rider off the table. Make them shoot at your bikes in cover and the land raider. Outflanking those other squads can be devistating. Coming on to finish off tanks or infantry or grabbing objectives on turns 3/4 to hopefully hang on until the end of the game can grab you a victory. People rag the da book but it has done well for me. It isnt top tier but if you use it right you can grab the W over top tier lists.

If you think you are going to struggle with anti-air then consider getting yourself an ageis. If you drop the single landspeeder that gives you 75 points right there. Everyone will say that the quad gun is better then the las cannon but if its las or nothing its better then nothing. You have 4 missile shots with the devistators and you have plenty of melta on the table to handle tanks. The las cannon only needs one shot to take down a flyer, its the flyer spam that will kill you. You have most things covered in this list. The bikes pour out a good amount of bolter shells, black knights have your ap2, dw knights can handle any kind of mc, you have a very powerful psyker, the devs can be anti armor and anti horde, and you have a decent scout unit that can hide on an objective well.

I don't have an Aegis, but the store I play at has a few in the terrain cabinet, so I was considering using one, maybe keeping it up about 12 inches from the edge of my deployment so I have somewhere to hide my bikes after a scout move. I also have a darkshroud that may, or may not be here by the time of the tournament, so I could probably squeeze that in with the removal of the land speeder typhoon. I was thinking about using that perfidious relic of the unforgiven you mentioned earlier too Namiel, with that I'd be getting a 4+ or 3+ deny the witch depending on the opposing psyker level, a 3+ deny the witch is a powerful weapon. Anyway, let me know what you think between the aegis, the darkshroud, and what I currently have set up.
