Don't where else to get the answer to this, not had much luck with google.

I was under the impression Blood Angels could take Assault Marines as a Troop Choice.... is this no longer the case in 8th?

Almost certainly not, although I don't have the codex. They haven't been troop choices in marine armies for a few editions now, if they ever were.

You love the T-Rex. Its both a hero and a Villain in the first two movies. It is the "king" of dinosaurs. Its the best. You love your T-rex.
Then comes along the frakking Spinosaurus who kills the T-rex, and the movie says "LOVE THIS NOW! HE IS BETTER" But...in your heart, you love the T-rex, who shouldn't have lost to no stupid Spinosaurus. So you hate the movie. And refuse to love the Spinosaurus because it is a hamfisted attempt at taking what you loved, making it TREX +++ and trying to sell you it.

Why would they? Core of blood angels are tactical marines.

As far as i know the core of BA now is heavily based on primaris marines. Leviathan took care of most non primaris ones.

Where the only difference is that Assault Squads are not objective secured.

fair enough! ... I guess you're right, it doesn't make too much difference apart from objective secured... I've just always been under the impression they could go in a troop slot...somehow

Don't worry, it's not just you...a lot of that kind of stuff has fallen by the wayside. I don't think Farsight can take crisis suits as troops, either.
