Having never played Dark Eldar...I am not very sure. Personally the list looks like a glass hammer. As to the marine list... I would drop the MM and give the tactical squad a combi-melta. That way they can move and shoot in the rhino. Preferably I would pod the dread, but that really doesn't look feasible.

Don;t have the points for it, not willing to drop dozer blades because if i do and i lose a match because the tank got immoblized moving flat out ill never forgive myself

If i drop the power weapon i could give the tactical sergeant a combi-melta, and the other assault squad melta bombs

Not enough points to switch the MM out for a combi-melta? Ummm yes you do...I mean unless you are not moving the rhino so you can shoot the MM...but then the dozer really isn't needed if you plan on that...

The D.E list is tight, so I'd leave that alone.

The B.A list isn't that good. Power weapons shouldn't be on melta units as you do not want your anti tank units engaging infantry. Dozer blades aren't needed, unless loads and loads of terrain. Single Dreadnought and Predator is trouble for those units, double or nothing. Tactical Squad isn't the best choice in a B.A army, Assault Marines are better every way and Scouts can claim objectives.

Actually looking at my codex for Blood Angels it says my tactical squad gets a MM for free at 10 strong and a combi-melta for the sergeant is XX points

Yes I know a third assualt squad is better however we don't have the models to make one since his army is already finished (and at armies on parade til the day before the tournament) and he built with 'nilla marines in mind though he uses FW in his lists for that and it isnt allowed in the tournament. So we don't have another Predator and we have another furioso dread however its not a librarian would fall behind and force the D.E list to change.

Editted Blood Angels

Best thing to do is post in the thread what cannot be changed etc instead of people making suggestions and saying you cannot change. Seems a waste of time to me.

Though it seemed like a waste to you, what you suggested to me actually went into my list as now the librarian assault squad has a power weapon and a flamer and the other squad has a melta, and yes i should have said that the tactical squad is there cause i had no other choice though it is temptig to try and mephiston in there at their expense
