DC Intercessors are in the Blood Angel's Codex, but not in the supplement from the Death Company Box, and not in the Munitorum Field Manual and not in the GW app.
Are they still a legal unit? Where can I find the correct points values for them?
For the Emperor!

Thanks!
So the Death Company is just made up of all the raging Blood Angels, primaris and first born?
It is just one thing?

Yes.
Well, 5 things actually:
Death Company Marines
Death Company Marines with bolt rifles
Death Company Marines with jump packs
Death Company Captain
Death Company Captain with Jump Pack
All right there in the BA section of the Munitorium file, the Codex, & the app.

Thanks. I guess I got some older or guides by accident.

Yeah, the firstborn DC are all Legends now. Their datasheets are still available in the BA Faction pack, IIRC
Current 10th edition rules are trying to eliminate firstborn/primaris distinction altogether. It is speculated that firstborns will be completely removed from 11th edition coming this summer.. Which might be either great or terrible for firstborn marine players, depending on how its all handled

Honestly, if there's no Tactical Squad in their next codex, then my current Tactical Squads just get to become Intercessors.

If that happens all my 1st born simply become short Primaris.

This is the correct choice.
