Command:
-DC chaplain

Core:
-Death company strike force:
1 DC chaplain
5 man DC squad with PW and jump packs
5 man DC squad with PW and jump packs
10 man DC squad with PW (no jump packs)

Aux:
-Lucifer armoured task force:
1 techmarine no upgrades
3 Baal predators with flamestorm cannons, heavy flamers and storm bolters
1 Land raider Redeemer with multimelta
-Rapid assault force
5 man assault squad with 2 meltas in a drop pod
5 man assault squad with 2 meltas in a drop pod
5 man assault squad with 2 meltas in a drop pod

The plan for this list is basically put my 10 man DC squad and techmarine in the land raider, the command DC chaplain (my warlord) in a 5 man DC squad and the other DC chaplain in another 5 man DC squad.
Ideally i would want to have first turn so everything in my army can move up fast thanks to the scout rule and fast tanks, overwhelm my enemy and try to burn/melta/assault everything in sight with support from my two drop podding assault squads for some tank hunting.
The main weakness of this list is that i dont have anything to deal with flyers but thats ok xd]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8914256.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8914256.page GMT [1850] - blood angels - Lost brotherhood http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8914284.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8914284.page GMT [1850] - blood angels - Lost brotherhood DC formation's 6" move stack with the tank formations scout move?

The tax of the extra chaplain and techmarne hurts. I'm gonna try this list out but probably drop the assault squads and Baal sponson upgrades in hopes of fielding a tank or two more, or adding more DC bodies. Might also slim the land raider squad down to field another jumpy squad.

I was also considering removing the sponsons and strom bolters from the Baal preds to make it a 1750 point list
thanks for the advice!

As would I. I'm thinking of building almost the exact same list actually. Seems really fun to play ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8916938.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8916938.page GMT Re:[1850] - blood angels - Lost brotherhood
I prefer the volume of shots the Baal HB sponsons bring (likewise LR Crusader), but apart from that it's pretty similar (can't decide whether dakka or flamer tanks make better use of the formation bonuses. It's only a 10 point swing either way)

While Scout would prevent a first turn assault, the 10 DC / LR combo can deploy 12", redeploy 6", move 6", disembark 6" and still charge, so they might be able to catch something first turn.

I'm also reading it as needing the Baals as 3 separate units (rather than a squadron of three), so no rerolling wounds. Happy to be corrected on that though!

It does mean you end up lighter on melta, so you, erm, might get stuck punching tanks.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8916982.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/703033/8916982.page GMT
