“Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls.
The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does.
That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."

Bloodletters really need to be in deepstrike. They're really fragile and too slow to footslog. You could run them in 20s to save CP. Either 3 units of 20 or two and 10 to fill the battalion.
Bloodcrushers might work in this list because you have so many bigger threats with the bloodthirsters, they have a chance of making it to combat. I prefer to run daemon princes usually as they can be hidden from shooting and behind terrain.

Thanks for the advice. I had completely overlooked the deep striking thing. I’ll change them to 3 units of 20. Would it be worth the CP to deep strike the crushers too or just run them up the board?

No problem  Hard to say, you have to keep half of your points on the board, and since you've 3 bloodthirsters I think you have to keep them deployed to go above 750 points anyway.
Plus I think they'll get left alone in favour of shooting you BTs so they might not need it!

Ah fair enough. With a movement of 8” I suppose they shouldn’t take too long to get into the action
