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
- Keep it civil.
- No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
- 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.
- No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Long time Blood Angel player here. I would NEVER suggest that army as a starting point. There's no jump packs at all and very little synergy between the units. Assault Ints are decent for going after objectives, but there are much better options for that role. And Bolter DC are the least popular DC unit by far. The list is a joke.
You'd get much better mileage from Mephy, 2x Jump Assault Intercessor squads, 2 squads of Jump DC, Astorath, and maybe Lemartes. Round it out with a Ballistus or a Baal Predator and your opponent will know what facing Blood Angels feels like.
