I just put the finishing touches on my first list, which I’ve been honing for a couple months now, and was wondering if anyone could offer some feedback ^.^

The army is Blood Angels, and it is a battle forged army, battalion detachment so I should start with 8 CP, unless I missed something. I took some ideas from the BA army on the channel, I hope that’s okay! The goal was 1250 points. The chaplain will by my warlord and I think either Soulwarden or Speed of the Primarch will be his warlord trait! (I’ll be playing mostly Eldar, so Soulwarden might come in handy :0)

181 + 91 = 272 + 65 = 337 + 72 = 409 + 69 = 478 + 235 = 713 + 188 = 901 + 358 = 1259

Hey Gwen. This looks like a really varied list, fun, and would be a great base for a larger army. There are a couple of units that Blood Angels have access to that are really fun to play and still competitive - Sanguinary Guard, Death Company, Slamguinius (the smash captain that SS82 uses), Sanguinary Ancient, The Sanguinor, Mephiston and a couple of other character options and dreadnoughts. Most would agree that Sanguinary Guard, combined with the ancient and the Sanguinor is the most fun and competitive synergy we have available as Blood Angels players. I would suggest trying to get that in to this list to give it a really good, fluffy feel to it whilst also making it stronger :-) you're looking at about 315 points for 5 SG and the ancient, a further 170 if you add the Sanguinor. Terminators aren't super competitive at the moment, but they are fun and everyone is hoping they get a points reduction in the upcoming Chapter Approved! That comes out in December, so not long to wait. There is a great Facebook page for Blood Angels collectors, some people are super competitive, some a bit moany, but 95% are just really cool and love the hobby and the army :-)
