V2.04 changes:

Split Land Raider upgrade up so you can’t take 4 Land Raider Crusaders (And thus gain 4 spare transport slots).
Adopted the EpicUK Death Company rule.
Fixed Furioso Dreadnought typo.
Restricted Hunters back to 1 per formation.


Cut it to shreds please chaps!

For the increase of the Assault Detachment from the "normal" four to six in the Blood Angel list, are two Assault Marines really worth 100 points?  I realize straight multiplication gives "262.5", but I feel this should be a "round down" to 250 case, not round up to 275...

Or just keep a base 4 units Assault Detachment and allow it to be bulked up to 6 via the Assault Upgrade?

(BTW, Hunter is listed twice for the Assault's upgrades...)

You would need to point out that Death Company with Jump Packs counts as Assault Marines with regards to transport and without Jump Packs as Tacticals.

Fixed.

Note that you can still field a Battle Company by taking:

- Tactical formation with Assault Upgrade
- Tactical formation with Assault Upgrade
- Devestator formation

Tadaa. :)

Hmmm...hmmm....but...hmm...damn!  :laugh:

Ok time to finish my Blood Angels Chapter, 3rd Company Task Force, 3rd Armageddon War as pictured in Imperial Armour 2 :))
Only problem is that this Task Forc eonly has 10 Scouts (2 units in Epic).

But Brother Captain Tycho with Command Squad is ready. At least a start  :laugh:

Oooooh, mechanized Terminators for 450 points? Lovely!

I'm not a fan of the fixed at 6 Assault detachment structure. Now you can't fit two of them in a thunderhawk, you can't fill the space remaining from DC, and they cost more per unit than a standard Assault detachment. Time to pad them out with FA/HS options and try running them on the ground, I guess. I like the addition of dreadnoughts though, a lone attached Furioso can dish out a lot of MW hurt and absorb hits better with his 3+ armor save to boot.

Death Company seems to have become quite a bit more manageable, though my opponent never took the effort to bait them properly.

Am I missing something, or is the Baal Predator worse in a lot of ways and merely equal in some to Land Raider Redeemer despite costing the same? Is it because of additional capacity in Landing Craft? I'd a lot rather take Baal Preds over Redeemers to pad out my ground formations for fluff purposes, and yet it's pretty silly to do that as it is.

Don't care about the bikes change, I don't have any (let alone five) attack bikes and never used them.

Never used Storms so far either, though it looked a bit underpriced before so I have no beef with this. At least the name was fixed  :)) Didn't Sniper upgrade cost +50 before?

Why were the double Hunters dropped so fast? They're not an overly imposing AA vehicle in my experience.

Anyway, the Flesh Tearers are getting ready to cause some carnage again :)

How that cheap? Terminators + Crusaders are total of 350+175 = 525 points.

Nope, Terminators + Land Raiders = 350 + 50 + 50

Also I seem to be operating at the assumption that "2x Furioso's Power Fist" gives 2 extra attacks with MW per unit. Is it incorrect?

Terminators don't get Heavy Support. They get Land Raider upgrade which allows 2 crusaders for 50 points each.
