Sanguinary Guard, Sanguinary Priest, Lemartes and Sanguinary Ancient make use of the Jump Pack Assault. The DC make their move with Forlorn Fury, to smash faces in turn 1. The sanguinary Guard is also most likely to get into combat with Descent of Angels. If one of the characters didn't get in to combat, just leave a trail of DC/SG to get the bonus of the characters. Also the Librarian will go there with his Wings of Sanguinius and buff the DC with Unleash Rage (giving them a total of 40 attacks with ap-3 and 20 with ap 0). With all buffs, the meleeunits are hitting on 3+ rerolling, wounding most of the time on 2+ (badest it can get is 4+ for units with T6 or more) reroling 1s und have ap-3, which should cripple or destroy allmost everything they can face (even Baneblades and Knights) in one go.
The Captain is chillin like a villin behind the Ballpreds and in 6" to the Devastors, to gave them all the reroll for hit rolls. The Missile Launcher is for the 100% hit with d3 mortal wounds on a flyer with Flakk Missile and Signum.
The Scouts go grabing objectives and sniping some characters or important stuff. The Furioso is there to defend against deepstriking units or (if there are none) to walk the field, guning down some mass units and grapple some vehicles.

I realy like the list and even it isn't the most powerfull list in all of 40k, it should be able to maintain a good spot in tournaments.
If you have some advise or suggestions, please let me know.

Go down to 6 powerswords (you'll never really need that many unless your charging a Land Raider). With the extra 24 points get 2 more marines in the Dev squad so its harder to remove your heavy weapons.

Also, you should probably only take 2 sniper squads and make one of them pistol/chainsword. If you have to put the squad up front to prevent a deep charge the snipers are a detriment to them.

Very strong list though. Puts nids in a rough spot with both the Bangles and DA coming out. Nidzilla is better againgst Bangels, but crumples againgst DA. Hoard crumples to BA and beats DA. Hard counters are fun...........

Maybe cutting the snipers from one squad, one power sword on a DC and a Storm Bolter from a Baalpred to buy 2 Marines (13pts each).
I realy don't like to remove as much of the power swords, but will see how it works in my next game next week ^^

You get so many attacks your only gonna really need the powerswords againgst 2+ armor. Chainswords will be fine againgst 80% of the enemy units.


With BA's chapter trait and character buffs, having more bodies and attacks is the way to go.
