http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net DA force and was wondering about allies/a 2nd army and narrowed my choice down to either Blood angels or space wolves as i like how they look and also allie wise the would compliment my DA force as DA is best at shooting and BA and SW are good at assult but the problem i have is which one to go for.

i am thinking blood angels as they look very cool and also i can get a £60 battle force box set thingy that looks like a good p,ace to start off with although i do like the look of space wolves so if somebody could explain to me the pros and cons of both that would be great.

(P.S noob question - with WS, BS, ect can somebody explain them as well as i am new-ish to the game that would also help)

2. i am on a budget this christmas of around £100 so what would be the best way to start an army off?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313791.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313791.page GMT WS to them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313813.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313813.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/671643.page

But, if you're starting out to the point of not even knowing BS and WS, I'm not sure you should go in with another army. I doubt you're using the full weight of Dark Angels and to be entirely honest, Dark Angels are better than Blood Angels and Space Wolves. I'd say stick to your guns and expand one of the three wings more. Ravenwing is pretty friggin scary on the table.

But, to answer the questions, BS is shooting skill, WS is chance to hit in Assault. Both are pretty much going to be the same for all of the armies apart from Characters. That's how Marines work. Space Wolves do a Champions of Fenris Detachment to give certain units WS5 so you're hitting standard troops on 3+, but Blood Angels have the Baal Detachment to give them Initiative 5 on the charge so they're striking first most times before they can take damage back. Means less casualties most times IF you do things right.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313821.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313821.page GMT WS and BS or lower]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313826.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313826.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313871.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673071/8313871.page GMT
