Yeah, Battlescribe is pretty good but should always be taken with a grain of salt. Sounds like they made a mistake.

Blood Angels Assault Marines use to get special permission to have melta guns, but they can't right now due to borrowing the SM entry.

I presume that when their codex drops it might be an option again.

Hell, I'm not that bothered by the Stormraven. Why? Because, as it stands right now, it's "limited use".When it's shoehorned in to the Codex: Space Marines, then yeah. I'll be irked.

Yeah, they've updated the wargear costs for vanilla Marines but not for DA, BA, etc. too (things like 12 pt. Power Fists, for example). Hopefully the folks making the Battlescribe data fix it soon.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/7/24, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~16000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Imperial Knights: ~2300 | Leagues of Votann: ~1300 | Tyranids: ~3400 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000 | Kruleboyz: ~3500 | Lumineth Realm-Lords: ~700

Everyone here apparently can't read FAQ's, Blood angels had special weapons added to their options for assault marines squads in one of those

There is a sticky thread in you make da call.

Also the warhammer community website has the most current FAQs(but the normal GW site is behind by 1)

This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.
Stop looking for buzz words and start reading the whole sentences.

Company veterans are superior to assault squads. You can equip each company veteran with JP (only BA), pistols, combi weapons, melee weapons, stormshield. You cant equip any assault squad with all these options.
