So some reasons i picked what i picked. Furiosos are there to come in turn one and drop down in their faces and kill some stuff then draw most of the turn one (or if i go second turn two fire) basically their to help the troops to move up into combat. DC is their to hopefully drop in turn to and cause chaos in the back of his army. I decided boys over toys and didn't give them many upgrades other then a hand flamer cause i needed to spend some left over points. Vindicators are their to take out infantry units hopefully some terminators or something with a 2+ armor save. Attack bikes will use LOS and hide behind the vindicators as they advance and then get close and pop something AV or put some hurt on a MC. That's the list its competitive so their is a lot of the same stuff. So let me know what you like and/or don't like.e

It looks really good. Attack Bikes could do better in a single squad as they are now weak and will give away free First Blood/killpoint. I also think that giving some gear to your Assault Sgt's would be good. Just a simple PW will boost assaults nicely. And DC will benefit far more of a single PS/TH than Hand Flamer (speaking of which, where did you get those points. The squad should cost like 150 points). Oh, and they _need_ a transport.

I kind of don't get the point of the smalles RAS. Droppping them would allow boosting your squads by giving a RB or Drop Pod for DC and a Sanguinary Priest to keep your army alive.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6438313.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6438313.page GMT blood angels 1850pts C&C welcome LOS. If I go second they will be out of LOS. And I should be able to get first blood with 2 vindicators and those nasty plates. In the cost of the death company the drop pod is included I just forgot to type it. :( and I know adding gear is never a bad thing (well pending on how much of it lol) but by not getting it I was able to get 6 more marines and I'd rather have those 18 more attacks then a few stronger ones. So that's just the reasoning behind the units mentionedb by Trigger Happy Baal and after I explained their purposes alittle more do you still feel they should be changed?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6439249.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6439249.page GMT blood angels 1850pts C&C welcome AA is. Drop the DC and the extra assault squad, grab a Stormraven, and drop a Furioso dread to get SP's.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6439561.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6439561.page GMT Re:blood angels 1850pts C&C welcome JPs and DC. Razorbacks have their use but razorspam got weaker in 6th with HP its not hard for a razorback to get glanced to death and then you have assault marines without JP and that's just bad lol. and the DC should do what they were put in the game to do and that's to make people scared when the land behind their army within assault range. draw all the fire and then everything gets to move up or the leave them alone and they eat stuff.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6439766.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6439766.page GMT blood angels 1850pts C&C welcome DC is necessarily bad.
And while I prefer RB frenziness, the multiple 10-man assault squads do work, but they need Priests. Seriously, they are worth it.

And just prepare for the AB's to suck in kill point game.

P.S. The name is soomemafia.

i under stand there is a lot of stuff that kills assault marines but their is just as much stuff that kills Razorbacks, and if i only have 5 guys in a razorback and it pops then i have 5 marines on foot and that's the end of that squad. Not necessarily. If you give the marines meltas, they can walk over and pop a tank. also, if you take at leawst 4 razorbacks, they won't be able to pop them all for at least 3 turns, including your other tanks.
so i know that 10 marines with JP don't have the most damage and wont last very long on their own. but using cover and LOS they should survive long enough to meet something in combat. I thought the same thing until I ran 30 assault marines myself, and they do die, even with a SP. You probably will be able to get to combat, but only one squad, you kill that squad, then you lose your last ASM squad.
not to mention with 2 dreadnoughts landing in front of their army on turn one it should provide just about a whole turn of marines not getting shot at. That is 2 dreadnoughts.... I don't think it's going to take the whole army to kill them.

And I've found that Assault Squads of ten guys die pretty quickly unless you have both Libby with Shield and Priest.
Even then tey'll die. Not on the first two turns maybe, but there will be little assaulting left.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6445092.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6445092.page GMT blood angels 1850pts C&C welcome DC are pretty bad, but the situation in general is bad. BA scoring troops cost way too much and do way too little. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6445109.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573470/6445109.page GMT
