So I'm a current chaos player. My list is more shoot since Khorne Lists aren't really viable at the moment. But I want to to a close combat army and BLood Angels seem fun to me. The store I play at plays 2000 points. Can you help me build a mean 2000 point Blood Angels List please? Thanks in advance. All feedback appreciated.

I like the Furioso Librarian and furioso dreadnoughts. Death Company, and the unit that can assault the turn it deploys from reserves, storm ravens, etc.

Well, first things first. Going all assault marines will land you alot of dead marines. I being a heavy assault player can vouch that all assault is dumb.

What are your must have models?
Are you wanting high mech or a mix of troops and mech?

If you do like the dc think about doing a Lemartes deathstar with like 5-8 Dc and a dc dread.

Ideally blood angels work best with a Librarian and a few priests.

A more of a mech list
Hq: libby with sword and shield powers

Elites: 2-3 priests

Trps; 3x 5 man units of assault marines 3x razorbacks
Trps: 2x tactical squads.
Trps: lemartes, 5 deathco and dread

Fast attack: 2xbaal pred

Heavy support 2x storm ravens.

Trps 10x tact heavy bolter and flamer-170
Droppod-35
Trps 10x tact heavy bolter and flamer-170
Droppod-35
Trps 10x assault marines. 2xmeltas 1pf-235
Trps 10x assault marines 2xmeltas. 1pf-235

HS: dev squad 4x ml-130
HS: dev squad 4x plascannons-150

I like it. I was planning on running the assaults and death company, and two storm ravens.

I also really like the furiosos, vanguard veterans, and assault terminators. Is there anything fun while simultaneously mean I can do with them? None of these are a must.The idea of deep striking a land raider full of assault termites just makes me laugh. Furioso are just mean. Vanguards are the squad that can assault out of reserves right?

I'm also having trouble picking how to arm my guys. A lot of the things I want to run need to have each individuals weapons assigned. That isn't something I'm used to. How should I load them out?

I'd like to run something similar to this. But I'm sure it isn't a sound list. But I'm not tied to this list. Help me fix this or suggest another idea. Thanks in advance.

Not enough scoring units and they are in to small of teams. Jumpers need to be in groups of 10. Take 2x metlas n power fist. Priests needs packs as well to keep up with jumpers. Drop furioso libby. And Rec is a terrible hq choice imo for ba.

Get rid of all DC units. They are also awful.
