Also, I have a few questions (as in, why it was done this way). Take it as whining if you like, it just seems odd to me that this list is setup this way. I know BA are supposed to be Non-Codex and hence "different". But that doesn't explain the reasoning behind these particular decisions. If indeed they were intentional.

Elites BA's seem to be elite "slot starved" vs. Codex SM
1. Scouts count as elites (seems strange, scouts are green "in-training" Marines.
2. Terminators are only available in 5 man squads. Codex can have anywhere from 5-10. Seems odd that other chapters can deploy 30 Terminators in a standard force list. BA can only do 15 (let alone if one desires scouts).

Scouts:
2. Why don't BA scouts have the option for camo cloaks or scout bikes?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/435981.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/435981.page GMT Questons about Blood Angels List (5th ed.)
In a nutshell:
No other codex except the PDF
Has some crap options (or lack of) because BA and DA were used as training wheels before the Dev team graduated to riding without them (I.E. New SM codex)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/436138.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/436138.page GMT Questons about Blood Angels List (5th ed.)

DE haven't gotten a new codex since 3rd edtion and pretty much half the stuff in the codex has no effect due to 5th edtion rules changes. Be happy to have a PDF. You could have space wolves like me and be useing a codex that is going on like 9 1/2 years old with no recent PDF. At least it all works with 5th edtion.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/436377.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/436377.page GMT Questons about Blood Angels List (5th ed.) ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/436379.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222042/436379.page GMT Questons about Blood Angels List (5th ed.)
