As BAs, any reason for not taking a death company? Seems like you're leaving off one of the "sexy" units for the army.

I'd also say that trading a scout squad and some of those unspent points for a second assault squad with plasmas and Meltabombs would be good, so that one can serve as the chaplain's bodyguards while the other hit and runs on armor.

He is taking death company... they're part and parcel for the chaplain. Why else do you think he costs 210 points with no super special goodies, aside from the jump pack?

Ah, yes. I was looking at the entries and not the points costs - but why aren't they listed? Ah, well.

If you wanted to do something intresting, if you give the chaplin one lightning claw he can reroll his wounds and the enemy gets no armor save, plus on the charge he can reroll his misses. Its the equivelent of giving a regular character 2 lightning claws, for the price of one. Usually it does some damage, I run the master of sanctity w/jump pack and lightning claw, with the death company. Generally it destroys MEQ squads. Just a thought.

Considder also, 2 baal preditors with heavy bolter spontoons make lethal short range veichles, because they can move 6 in and still fire all of their weapons.
