-For what you're trying to achieve, I'd drop the tactical squad for another handful of intercessors and perhaps a power sword on them. You're doubling your staying power on objectives, and while losing the LC, you can easily make that back up with a power fist or two on the guard.
-Furthermore, I'd probably give the priest a jump pack instead for the deepstrike flexibility.
-Also, touney people might get a bit uppity about being 2 points over, so as a courtesy make sure you're under 1000. Rejiging with the above suggestions will give you room to move.

Another consideration with the multi-wound models is potentially picking up a librarian? He's about 127 points all kitted out with a jump pack. You could definitely just trade the tac squad in, as the 4+ shield and rage would be very nice. I'm not putting this as a recommendation as I haven't played it as of yet.


I'm not going to comment on spamming sang guard, because a) I haven't seen it in action and b) it's the core concept of your list. Please do let us know how you go, personally I'm very curious. I love the models, the concept and the rules, however they're just too expensive. (Those fething encarmine swords)

Sanguinary ancient, I'd take one instead of the third sanguard squad or the intercessors. Rerolling wound rolls is fantastic and with the sanguard only having 2 base attacks each rerolling 1s is super helpful especially when those swords are only s4(5 with the priest). My experience with sanguard has been very lacklustre, they just don't do enough for their points. The libby and priest can help get some more mileage out of them but with no invuln a 2+ save just isn't what it used to be. I'm really hoping that the codex (when It does eventually drop) will give ba some real love, but until then I'm probably going to start looking at guard allies because reasons.

Also, give your priest a hammer if you can afford the points, hammers hitting on 3s are nice

The ancient can reroll failed hit rolls, if he is within 6" of a warlord. The guards can reroll failed hit rolls when there is a warlord within 6". No rerolling failed wound rolls.

The blood angels chapter banner- All friendly blood angels within 6 inches of a blood angels chapter banner do not need to take morale tests, and re-roll wound rolls of one in the fight phase.
