The...Do you think that will make your points back? The shock factor is there, a bunch of 2+ armor dudes who just drop in with meltas, power weapons and Power Fists.. but is it worth the points invested? The squad will probably have meltas, Dante himself, a Priest, so that's 225+250(generous squad)+75 for a total of ~550. What is it going to shoot/kill that's going to make its points back before everyone will focus enough wounds on it to kill 7 models? I like the guy, but he needs a bigger squad, cover/build/BLoS to jump into, and an opponent who doesn't know it's coming (and thus deploy for it). Oh, and no Tau.HEROhttp://lkhero.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-65713631732297627992013-08-04T10:16:29.578-07:002013-08-04T10:16:29.578-07:00What do you think about Dante?

I mean while I love Mephiston you have to admit, deepstriking with Dante with a squad of (troop choice) sanguinary guard, and a priest with a pack, with no scatter can make an enemy army have to turn their whole army around to deal with this new threat on the field while you jump in and cleave their back line to shreds.rtknightnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-15170531383295228212011-10-27T09:32:31.994-07:002011-10-27T09:32:31.994-07:00Power Fist and Heavy Bolter.Power Fist and Heavy Bolter.HEROhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16578445512892020612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-82809629847467158732011-10-26T18:07:54.638-07:002011-10-26T18:07:54.638-07:00what is a PF/Infernus and HBwhat is a PF/Infernus and HBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-5791538349254518122011-06-13T09:10:48.617-07:002011-06-13T09:10:48.617-07:00Corbulo, on the other hand, is worth two Priests i...Corbulo, on the other hand, is worth two Priests in himself.

I agree with your assessment that a lot of posts from the more popular forums can be a turn-off, but a few of them hold some merit.<br /><br />As it stands right now, my list looks like this:<br /><br />2000<br />14 kp<br /><br />HQ:<br />Mephiston = 250<br /><br />TROOP:<br />10x ASM (PF/Infernus, 2x Meltaguns) = 250<br />10x ASM (PF/Infernus, 2x Meltaguns) = 250<br />5x ASM (RB TLAC, PW, Meltagun) = 180<br />5x ASM (RB TLAC, PW, Meltagun) = 180<br /><br />ELITE:<br />Corbulo = 105<br />Sanguinary Priest = 50<br /><br />FA:<br />Baal Predator (TLAC/HB) = 145<br />Baal Predator (TLAC/HB) = 145<br />Baal Predator (TLAC/HB) = 145<br /><br />HEAVY:<br />Vindicator (DB) = 150<br />Vindicator (DB) = 150<br /><br />Mephiston is still leading the charge, but I took out the 2x Rhinos carrying the ASM for flying ASM instead. They reduced the kp count of my army and allow me to engage in CC much faster. They will fly behind the 2x Vindicators/2x TLAC Razorbacks pushing up, getting the sweet bonus of that FNP bubble.<br /><br />Mephiston, since he's a lovely 250 points even, can be replaced with 2x 125 point Librarians with Jump Packs, and they'll go into the two ASM squads.<br /><br />Thanks again.

I don't really feel like it captures the whole blood angel 'theme' as a whole, but it might do well. I'm not personally a fan of Vindicators, but I guess to each their own.<br /><br />Anyways, I saw your posts on the 'Blood Angel Tactica' at Warseer, and though I'm annoyed by 90% of the posts that go on there, yours usually made sense. Your blog posts here seem well-reasoned and I rarely see that in any 40k blog. So, well done!<br /><br />If you want other perspectives on 40k that aren't the (mostly retarded) people at Warseer or Dakka, feel free to visit my blog too. <br />www.rumorsofheresy.blogspot.com<br /><br />Or don't: do whatever, lol.
