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..

you might recognise the Mortales Praetor as the Mortales Praetorians are a renegade chapter of the Order of Knights Penitent.

I thoguht so.. Sorry for the name steal! I was lookign for something relating to death, and guarding/warding/watching.. My latin is rusty and I can only think of Death Guardians.. Which is really to close to Death Guard... Any suggestions as to the name?

@Wakim: Yeah, only one.. I may add two.. But BA spawned forces aren't famed for dreads (near death USUALLY results in black rage)... These are a sucessor. I suppose I could always pop one more in. I'm really waiting on the FW apoc book there though.. The 'Force of the Ancients' sounds tasty..

BTW... In the Apoc book, it shows the Battle Co. data sheet pic as having everything in Rhinos.. But the actual composition says nothing about it.. Just that you need tactical squads.. So... do I have to use the rhinos/razorbacks for the command squad/rhinos.... Or could I not?

Regarding the thing about the death company (in italics).
IF you BUY any of them (points wise) they cant go above 10.
IF you dont buy any and they are all free from the squads you can have as many as you like, You may purchase the jump packs without affeccting the unit number. This is explained in the FAQ in the back of the downloadable codex Blood Angels.

I think you could get away without the Rhino's/Razorback's but dont you get 9 chassis with the battle company box, if you bought it dont let them go to waste.

The death company can have jump packs, this doesnt affect the unit size. However if you buy any death company the unit limit becomes 10, if you do not purchase any death company there is no unit limit. therefore if you have 15 tactical squads you get 15 death Company, but if you have 6 tactical squads and buy 4 death company thats it you cant have any more.
This is on the FAQ at the back of the downloadable codex.

i would suggest Attack bikes! i love em sooo useful for 50pts but if you havnt got money for 6000pts of attack bikes (I WANT THIS!) then go for the assault troops.

Actually, the chasis will be used. One of them will be converted into a razorback for the devs. Another will be sused to convert a pred. And I have vague plans of converting my vindicators from the others. That'd use enough I think to hit the number they give me.. I'll probably fill in the rest with something tasty.. Maybe a predator assassin squad or something..

balls did i type that twice damnit >.<

I still say 6000pts of attack bikes is the way to go! Use a linebreaker squadron and the pred assassin squadron, also while your at it bring more guns than the other guy hope for trees as terrain and use anti plant barrage.

i have used this when i was allied with a tank company SOOOOO effective but then again i was just charging so i took all the shots. i had 1 squad left after that game and it was a termie squad ooo the fun.

Anyways good luck.

Well, the only thing I'd say is to take the power sword off the sergeant in the Dev squad because if they get into combat, you're in trouble anyway... I'd also get a Predator Annihilator or two. Or, like you said, go for the assassin squad (but then you have to shoot at one target until it's dead! not that that would be a problem with 9 lascannons...), but I guess you do have that linebreaker squadron...

Other than that, it looks awesome! I would help more, but I know very little about Apoc.

I'm not a fan of annihilators... So.. never mind that data sheet... They just seem over priced for a big bullet magnet... Devs do the job better, imho. Then again, i'm usually an infantry man over rhinos and tanks any day.

Death is Mortius or something like that in Latin... Guard is Custode, Custodis... so its a bit to close to the Custodes... but I'm sure there are similar words... my latin is possibly worse than yours though...

As for something involving death... Guardians of Death? Keepers of the Dead? Masters of the Crypt? Just some ideas.

Not bad... My Latin is also Pre-Church Latin for the most part (pre 1-200 AD) so, it's no surprising some of it MAY sound off.

As for the terminators.. Good ideas.. Good ideas..

Still a good language. Just.. The church had the funny idea to make up and add words to Latin, that to one who grew up speaking it, made no sense... But to someone who grew up speaking and thereby thinking Greek/Hebrew,it did. Latin is one of those rare languages that is so radically different structure wise that to truly be fluent in it requires you to pretty much be able to change your entire thought process.

i would have to say excellent composition. remember that you can never have enough lightning claws on the vets, you may want to take all of your assualters as vets...but getting that many lightning claws may be hazardous. Baals make very good anti tank and infantry, but they need lots of lascannon support. i agree drop any excess power weapons unless you are searching for points. also you may want a small contingent of Techmarines for the number of vehicles. (a baneblade converted to the blood thirsty might of sanguinus may also be a good investment if you plan on fighting titans and such.

There will be now, after some advice, the addition of a techmarine, and here is now my question...

After my Chapter's internal schism and war, all that remains is a few squads of scouts, and the first company... Should I take all veteran assault marines, or no?
