Altough I usually play at 1500 points nowadays, I decided to share this list.
It's an old list of mine which I altered a bit. It's pretty similar to a list in certain BA vs. IG thread here so that's why I tought of it.

Simply put, I wanted to use some models that have been collecting dust for way too long now.

Here we go:

Librarian - 100p
I'll propably go with Divination

Furioso Dreadnought - 170p
Frag Cannon, Heavy flamer
Drop Pod

Brother Corbulo - 105p

Assault Squad- 120p
Razorback

Assault Squad - 120p
Razorback

Assault Squad - 125p
Razorback; Melta bombs

Bike Squad - 125p
2x Plasma Guns, Melta bombs

Predator - 135p
Autocannon, Lascannon sponsons

So what do you think? How would this fare in a game?
Also I planned to take this to 1500 point game by adding Imperial Knight and maybe some bikers. How about that?

Any and all opinions are welcome!

you can use Imperial Knight on WH40k? it's not only for Escalation?

This looks fun. Are you planning on putting Corb and the libby in seperate squads? How are the Razorbacks set up (Lascannon/HB/Las-plas)??

I like it. Although corbs seems a bit of a waste in a 5 man assault squad.

Thanks for input!

Yeah, as far as I know you can use it in regular 40k games.

Razorbacks have either HB or HF because they are cheapest options. Corbulo and Librarian were meant to lead different units close to each other.

Yeah, I just auto-include Corbulo nowadays for some reason.

Dropping Corbulo would earn me the points to uprgade the weapons on RB's, but I'm not sure if it's worth it as they would only be bigger targets to the enemy.

I hope you don't plan on winning a lot with BA, they're very low-tier and I had to switch to SM to make the most out of my PA marines.

Yeah, I've been playing Blood Angels for a year and a half now so I definitely understand that they have troubles.
When I truly want to win I play my Eldar or Space Wolves, but I still try to make BA useful and effective and nowadays I win something like 2/3 games in our gaming group against armies like Tau, Eldar, Grey Knights and Space Marines.
