Default One last time...

Keep in mind when reading this, a few things...

One is I am facing off against wolfpack most regularly..

So I need a nice rounded force... Two, I wanted the army to accurately reflect my Chapters fluff rather than be powergame/winner set up.. So if some squads (especially elites and HQ) seem off... Take that into consideration.

Thirdly, I had intended to make my own traits. But they are a BA successor... With a twist of course, but you've no reason to know that! So I decided to use the BA codex.

Another is the fact that I am using the SM Battle Co. to build this force.. I'm already getting 6 tactical squads.. So I intend to use them. With combat squads, the devs will split in half, and the half w/ out the sarge will shoto about in the razorback, the half with will be stop gap and counter assault units!

I also already have a SWEET Blood Angels Chapter banner, so I decided to use their new Codex. This was also under rather unqiue motivational suggestions from our own wolfpack, so I finally hammered the list out...

Total... I'll need.. only 25 over the battle company amount for assault marines (mainly for honor guard, veteran assault, and Death Co.), 15 termies (10 shooty, 5 Assault), a dread(furioso d-c), three landspeeders, three vindicators, a bike squad, and two whirlwinds! Oh, and 5+ drop pods!!!

Now, onto the list! Please, Stitch, though I may not take all your suggestions, do your usual take and chew up/spit out/rip apart.. I rather appreciate the honesty, and sometimes it helps to know where my fluffy gaming aspects will give me trouble, so i'm aware of weaknesses!!

Here is the question on these... The unit entry says you may purchase extra Death Company @ +X pts. each as long as the number of models in the uni does not exceed 10... Does that mean the Entire squad is capped at ten? Because it says no where about a squad cap, it only says you may PURCHASE... So, if they are freely generated DC.. Do I keep them even if they exceed 10?
