This is true. My friend plays BT and besides teh Space Wolves, nothing can beat them in terms of fluff.

However, rules-wise, and equipment wise, the Blood Angels and the Dark Angels are much better armies.

My suggestion would be to use codex BA or DA (or even SM with traits) to make a decent list and paint them black templars colors...

Righteous can work both ways... I've had it used against me... but at the time I played a much more static list, against mobile lists (read: Tau, lots of SM, many Eldar lists, any list with a few fast units) it can really mess you up...

Still, like everyone said, they are a really cool army. If you don't use the BT codex, you won't get the Emperor's Champion, which is perhaps their best bonus... he is a SCARY MONSTER...

So ya, that's my opinion on the BT.

I like Chaos much better.
