A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Prediction before reading the article - soupped up meele dreadnought in a drop pod, thunderhammer HQ and a sanguinary priest. Haven't played since 8th and haven't played Blood Angels at all, let's see how I do.

Edit: in article 3x intercessor squad, death company, dread and Mephiston. Close, but not quite

Hah. Same. I only ever saw Blood Angels from the other end of the table. :D

The article seems to be for beginners who want to start with Blood Angels. That looks like a solid starting point for them with pretty much every edition. Only thing I find a bit weird is taking the Close Combat Intercessor Squads and equipping the Death Company with Bolters.
