Divination should do with him.

And I vote for the 2nd list.
Mephiston is awesome and you barely need the Storm Shields on ASM Sergeants.
And that makes them a bit pricy for my taste (still 1/3 chance of failing and failing means dying).

If you take Mephiston, my advice is this:
Roll once on Divination, if you get something awesome (misfortune or forewarning basically) keep it and throw again. If you get something lame (f.e. perfect timing, useless for him) take Presience.
After that roll the rest on Biomancy. The chance for T9 S9, Eternal Warrior and IWND and other goodies on Mephiston is simply awesome.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6756845.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6756845.page GMT Which 1500 point Blood Angels looks better to you?

Do you always have a ride for Mephiston? I have issues with him getting into combat early enough (or find cover) when he doesn't have a 12" move.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6759736.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6759736.page GMT Which 1500 point Blood Angels looks better to you? His codex powers are also nice, mainly because of the JP move. The RBR powers, are better however in most cases.
If you use them, you either walk him up to the field with Assault Marines moving ahead as a meatshield (or you can move him behind a LR), or you can buy LR/Rhino/RB for him as a dedicated transport. Flat Out the first turn and assault as quickly as possible.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6762867.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6762867.page GMT Which 1500 point Blood Angels looks better to you? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763242.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763242.page GMT Which 1500 point Blood Angels looks better to you?
Unless you have a transport for Mephy, keep his codex powers. Walking and fleet-running alone the whole game won't do much good, even if you ARE str 9 T 9 EW rerolls to hit FNP and it will not die. Just use wings and keep up near a priest for his FNP, while using ASM's for intervening model cover.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763316.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763316.page GMT Which 1500 point Blood Angels looks better to you? AT fire. Although plasma kills both Meph and rhino hulls, so I'm not sure how good even that is anymore. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763629.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763629.page GMT Which 1500 point Blood Angels looks better to you? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763823.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/591545/6763823.page GMT
