We finally got some points for the new 40K Blood Angels army – so lets see just mean of a Herohammer “Boys From Baal” list we can make!.

Goatboy here and thankfully we finally got some points for the new Blood Angels army.  It feels like forever since we got the rules, complained about all the arms we had to break off models, and how much of an edge lord Mephiston actually wise.  This time around I started doing some basic list ideas before we got the points and thought – let’s add all the special character into one list and see what we can do with the Boys From Baal.

Right now I have built out two Death Company squads and I am just waiting on my Sanginuor to come in, the new combat Patrol, and my desire to paint more Marine bodies.  Every time I build a new Marine list I always think – man I should have really stuck going hardcore into the Space Goat theme or making everything Chaos.  I went to far into this Primaris build and have to stick to it. The age of Counts As armies is just not the same with so many different index, detachments, and books available.  Thus my Marine army is an actual Marine army even though its colors are not the normal “Blood Angel” colors. Here’s the list:

“Boys From Baal” Army List Thoughts

This is full of all the things I want to play and mostly have painted.  This is probably the important thing.  Sure I could throw in some Baal Predators and giggle at the name like a twelve-year old but then I would have to get some, paint some, and just play things that don’t smash things in close combat.  I have almost all of this painted except for Sanguinor and the Sanguinary Guard (Combat Patrol pending).  I get the feeling the Dreadnoughts will make me sad and I will end up looking at other options but for right now this feels right.  At the very least in my gold black heart it feels right.

For Sanguinius!
