I understand that the Angry Marines aren't canon, but I was wondering. For those of you who played as them or against them before, how well did they do against a typical 40k tabletop army? I understand that they're extremely deadly in melee, so I was curious about their capabilities.

Space Wolves or Blood Angels have the suitable close combat buffs. You could use a Phobos Captain to represent their special Commissar. Give him the Master of the Vanguard Warlord trait to represent him spurring the Angry Marines to new levels of rage.

Always world eaters, with anything daemonic replaced with just rage related things.

Plus Khorne Berserkers as troops are suitable to represent the rank and file of the angry marines!

Agree with this. Tactical Squad Angry Marines just feels wrong, Berserkers all the way!

And obviously Kharn as your Warlord.

Black templars, because only sissys use guns.
