-----[Updated]-----

Hey all, me and my bro are going to a doubles tournament in a couple of months and I wanted to post our list for any feedback you guys may have.

Our lists:

I have a choice between two BAngel lists as well. Which do you guys think is better?

---BAngels---
741pts

HQ
- Chaplain w/ Inferno Pistol and JP
ELITE
- 7x DC w/ 3x Power Weapons, 1x Power Fist and JP's
TROOP
- 10x Tac Squad w/ MM/M in a Drop Pod
- 10x Tac Squad w/ HF/F in a Rhino

---BAngels Alternative---
747pts

HQ
- Chaplain w/ Inferno Pistol and JP
ELITE
- 7x DC w/ 2x power weapons, 1x power fist and JP's
TROOP
- 5x Scouts w/ Sniper Rifles, a Heavy Bolter and Camo Cloaks
- 5x Scouts w/ Sniper Rifles, a Heavy Bolter and Camo Cloaks
FAST ATTACK
- 5x Bikes w/ 2x Melta
- 5x Bikes w/ 2x Grav

---Imperial Fists---
750pts

HQ
- Librarian (ML 1)
TROOP
- 10x Tac Sqaud w/ Grav Cannon/Grav gun in a Rhino
- 9x Tac Squad w/ Melta, Sgt. w/ Combi-Melta in a Rhino (working on changing this to plasma)

Aquila Kill Team
- Terminator w/ Thunder Hammer/Storm Shield
- Vet w/ Bolter/Storm Shield
- 2x Vets w/ Bolters/Shotguns
- 2x Vets w/ Frag Cannons
- Watch Sergeant w/ Bolter/Shotgun
- All in a Drop Pod

My bro's Librarian will go in with the 9 man tac squad and my Chaplain will obviously go with the DC. We want it to be kinda competitive but mostly fun and fluffy. I know the BAngel supplement is due out any time but my list idea will probably stay roughly the same with only minor tweaks based on the leaks that have come out, and obviously any good suggestions you guys have will alter it.

Cheers

At my desk

For the Angels:
If you have the model for it, I'd put the Melta-equipped tactical squad in a Drop Pod. You gain 10 points because BA Rhinos have Fast, and the Drop Pod allows you to drop them anywhere. Chaplain's Inferno Pistol is a little out of place, the DC have no shooting capability and if your Chaplain is going to be assaulting with them, so why does he need a shooting weapon? I don't know what you'd do with fifteen points and maybe you're buying to to fit the model. I don't know, just stood out a bit to me.

For the Fists:
Grav-equipped Tactical Squad looks fine to me, and allows your doubles to punch above your weight if you encounter anything nasty. Another Melta-equipped Tactical Squad in a Rhino seems a little out of place, perhaps you like Melta weapons, but I think some ranged power would help you along.

For the Kill Team:
I don't know much about DW, so someone else can probably give you better insight. Terminator is a CC tank, nice. Shielded veteran will be good to take wounds and absorb high AP fire. Veterans with Bolters are cheap and nice for ablative wounds if you need them so. Frag Cannons wreck all things in range, nice. Sergeant is keeping the cost down, good too. Dropping them anywhere on the table with the Pod is nice too, seeing as they are so close-range oriented.

Overall I like it though. Looks fun to play.

3000pts Blood Angels (4th Company) - 2000pts Skitarii (Voss Prime) - 2500pts Imperial Knights (Unnamed House) - 1000pts Imperial Guard (Household Retainers)

2000pts Free Peoples (Edlynd Fusiliers) - 2000pts Kharadron Overlords (Barak Zilfin) - 500pts Ironweld Arsenal (Edlynd Ironwork Federation) - 1000pts Duardin (Grongrok Powderheads)

Wargaming's no fun when you have a plan!

Thanks for the advice, really helpful. And I'm glad you like it overall

I need to buy a second transport whether it be a rhino or drop pod anyway, so I shall put the melta team in a drop pod. That's a good idea.
With the saved 10pts, and the 9 I still have to spend, I'll probably get a 3rd power weapon for the DC.
The reason I've given the Chaplain the inferno pistol is because they're going to have a DC chaplain who costs the extra points and comes with one, for extra special rules for the DC he rides with. I'd not have it otherwise, because I agree that they're over priced. (If this special chaplain isn't HQ though, I'll probably drop the pistol, and instead of getting a 3rd power weapon in the DC, I'll probably get an 8th member)

And with the Fists, my bro is gunna swap out the meltas for plasma if he can find the points.

Thanks again dude
