Between Blood Angels and Space Wolves who does a better all Dreadnought list at 1500 and 2000, and what would you use? I like both but don’t know which one works better at lots of dreads.

Dark Angel.

I know, you lose the Libby and the Wulfen, but the Dreadnought Mortis with the built-in reroll of the DA (and the Dreadnought Chaplain as HQ) have served me very well during all the 8th edition.

If you are having a hard time choosing, there is the option of allying it up and bringing detachments from each chapter.

If your not looking to go forge world then i would say blood angels. Space wolves have 1 hq thats a dreadnought, but its a charecter so that means max 1 detachment. That limits you dreadfully.

If you are using forgeworld then i like salamanders. Reroll 1 failed hit and 1 failed wound per dread is nice.

I like the dark angels but doesn’t blood angles and space wolves have more options for Dreadnought armies?

Blood Angels, Space Wolves max out at two HQ Dreads and Bjorn got crippled by the Space Wolves’ own codex.

Orks, with a BIg Mek in mega armour or Ghaz as the boss. Land, dreads, Meka dreads, naughts and stompa. Plenty of dreadnaught action.
