I'm a big BA player, and I'm interested in picking up some of the Imperial Armour books, but I want to start with getting the ones that have most of the BA fluff & units in first.

Any idea which of the books are best i.e. have most BA stuff in them so I can start there?

Muchos Appreciated

I can't remember off the top of the head if ANY of the Imperial Armour books have Blood Angels. Certainly no squads or Characters. The best you can do is Imperial Armour Apocalypse with the Blood Angels Contemptor but that is an outdated model and would need some tinkering with to make sense in the current codex.

IA-2 has the general Space Marine stuff and you'll get more use out of that. Something like 90% of the units can be used for BA, including the Sicaran tank that fits in very well with the army.

I too find the lack of Blood Angel specific stuff on Forgeworld a little bit disappointing. I'm really looking forward to when they get round to doing the Heresy era Blood Angel's.

Theres Malakim Phoros which is an HQ choice for blood angels. Its from IA9 i think. You can also get his rules here http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/C/Charcterupdate.pdf

Yeah, IA2 is probably your best bet. None of the IA books really feature the BA that much (although the HH will get to them eventually) but IA2 at least has plenty of units that the BA can make use of.
