...and wants to start with a 1000 points army (which he plans to expand later). He mainly wants to do it because of the hobby aspect, so he wants to strictly only use models he really likes. He's chosen Blood Angels and asked me to put together an effective and fun to play 1000 points army. He pointed out he liked the Sanguinor, Astorath, the Sanguinary Guard, Death Company, Assault Marines, Stern- and Vanguard Vets, Furioso Dread and the Lord Executioner Models.
After asking him, he said he was kinda fine with the Baal Pred, Scouts and Drop Pod. He hates Land Speeders, Rhinos, Bikes, Trikes and isn't too fond of regular Marines and the Land Raider. Haven't asked his opinion on Terminators.
I think I'll suggest the following to him:
*************** 1 HQ ***************
Librarian
- Jump Pack
- 1 x Bolt Pistol
- 1 x Force Axe
- Shield of Sanguinius, plus something offensive. Blood Lance or Sword, propably.
- - - > 125 Punkte
(use the Model of Astorath - why not? There's no jumper Librarian model to my knowledge, and Astorath looks very Blood Angels-y and has a nice Axe too)
*************** 2 Elite ***************
Sanguinary Priest
- Jump Pack
- - - > 75
Furioso-Dreadnought
- Paired Blood Claws
- Heavy Flamer & Melta
+ - Drop Pod
- - - > 170
*************** 3 Troops ***************
Assault Squad
10 Assault Marines
- Jump Packs
- 9 x CCW
- 7 x Bolt Pistol
- 2 x Melta
+ Sergeant
- 1 x Bolt Pistol
- 1 x Power Claw
- - - > 225
Scout Squad (something cheap to sit at home)
5 Scouts
- 3 x Sniper Rifles
- Missile Launcher
+ Sergeant
- 1 x Bolt Pistol
- 1 x Sniper Rifle
- - - > 85
Death Company
5 Death Company
- 1 x Thunder Hammer
- Jump Pack
- - - > 205
*************** 1 Fast Attack ***************
Baal Predator
- Twinlinked Assault Cannon
- - - > 115
1000 Points
Anyone have alternative ideas, given the constraints stated above?
