Did some games with the testlist and found out some things:
- Librarian dreads die like any other dread
- Highly mobile foes evade you if you can't get the drop on them with pods
- 2 scoring units are sometimes not enough
- FNP sucks if your opponent has 8 plasmaguns and always hits 7/8 shots
- Frag cannons are severely underestimated
So, based on that, here is the revised list. Also it's really 1750 points now.
Librarian - Shield of Sanguinius, The Sanguine Sword
- - - > 100 points
*************** 2 Elite ***************
Furioso-Dreadnought - Frag cannon, heavy flamer, droppod
- - - > 170 points
Furioso-Dreadnought - Frag cannon, heavy flamer, droppod
- - - > 170 points
*************** 6 Troops ***************
Assault Squad - 1 meltagun, 1 sergeant with infernuspistol, powerweapon, droppod
- - - > 140 points
Assault Squad - 1 meltagun, 1 sergeant with infernuspistol, powerweapon, droppod
- - - > 140 points
Deathcompany - 10 deathcompanists, 2 powerfists, 4 boltguns, droppod
- - - > 285 points
Deathcompany-Dreadnought - 2 bloodclaws, droppod
- - - > 160 points
Deathcompany-Dreadnought - 2 bloodclaws, droppod
- - - > 160 points
Assault Squad - 1 meltaguns, 1 sergeant with powerweapon, jumppacks
- - - > 125 points
*************** 2 support ***************
Dreadnought - Bloodfist, heavy flamer, multi-melta droppod
- - - > 150 points
Dreadnought - Bloodfist, heavy flamer, multi-melta, droppod
- - - > 150 points
Total points Blood Angels : 1750
For 1850 points the jumppack squad gets 5 more marines with another meltagun.
Why the frag cannons? Well, 2 shots, possibly multiple autohits, ignore cover, most units wounded on 2+, threat to heavily armored foes and tanks up to AV14 with rending and it's FREE. What's not to like. The dreadnought still got his bloodfist and is as durable as an librarian dreadnought but 50 points cheaper.
I just have to figure out how to convert the frag cannons. I guess I could use the leftover seismic hammers or hurricane bolters from my deathcompany/ironclad dreadnoughts. Haven't found any viable conversions for them on the net until now.
