Cant wait to try this thing on board

Not heretics i swear

Pretty happy I have done as much as I can with the build(eBay was definitely my friend here) now to strip and repaint.

As title, I've not seen it specifically mentioned but maybe it's really obvious to more experienced players or something. Does the update fully overwrite the previous version of the rule that called for a character to be with the unit?

I've not got around to playing 11th yet but I gather that besides the above, the ability works as before, except the -1 to hit with ranged weapon comes by way of a BS modifier from Stealth's Benefit of Cover, meaning it no longer stacks with actual cover?

With the new rules update, the only Purge the Foe Detachments the Dark Angels have access to are Lion's Blade Task Force and 1st Company Task Force. 1st Company Task Force is renowned as quite possibly the weakest Detachment Space Marines have access to, so it's not much of an option.

What do people think of Lion's Blade Task Force, though? Its Detachment rule is pretty situational, but it's 2 DP so you can combine it with a lot of other Detachments with varying degrees of synergy.

Librarius Conclave and Vengeful Hosts both buff certain Deathwing units, Fulguris Task Force and Darkflight Pursuit both buff Ravenwing speeders, and Dark Age Arsenal and Interrogation Conclave have the potential to buff both Deathwing and Ravenwing. The only 1 DP Detachment that doesn't synergise with it to some extent is Subversion Assets.

What are people's thoughts about the best Detachment to combine with it?

And still completely useless.

He will be useless until he is something more than, "a decent beat stick with fights first (a useless ability)."

The rest of the buffs we got are awesome, though! I almost wanna buy ravenwing models, but I'm fairly certain the refresh is coming this edition, so I'm gonna hold out for that.

hi :), finally completed my first bladeguard veteran, hope yall like it, if you have any tips/feedback feel free to share them. i made other posts during my wip of this model and put them under the "painting" flair. now that is finished i tought to post him under the "showcase" (?) im not a big reddit user i hope this is how flairs work haha.

edit: damn i hate socials compressing my photos, i put a lot of work with my camera for them to look sharp then when i post they are so damn grainy haha :/

Hello gamers! I haven't played a lot of warhammer games and I've never actually played a 2k game yet. Most of my experience so far with the game has just been the hobby side. I'm also new to Dark Angels. I really only know the stuff I've been seeing lately which is the Librarian stuff and I have a couple of the new librarians, land speeders and a couple librarians in terminator armor.

Any advice would be great! I still think the rules for librarius just seem so good even with the nerfs lol

Anywho, here's the list, thanks in advance for looking!

Finally got the time to go and paint my Dark Angels! Started with some intercessors, next I’ll probably do a dreadnought as a treat/break from doing many small units.

Need to go back and clean up some flash I missed during assembly, but I took a spare BGV body and combined some spare Sternguard, ICC, and Intercessor bits (plus a spare DW Shoulder) and made my own Azrael proxy to be more authentic to my chapter

Seeing that Ravenwing Command Squad drops in point and are moved to being support i feel that Company of Hunters are insane powerful.

2x Chaplain, RWCmd, 6 Black Knights

1xSamael, RWCmd, 6 Black Knight

At rapid fire, thats almost 90 plasma shot (most at devW) and over 90 attack (most with +1 to wound) and movement to deliver it. Currently trying it out against Sisters.

Hello,

I need some advice please.

I don't know if i keep the flashy green or if I lower it like on the arms?

Any advise?

Thank you!

And finally the squad is done! I magnetized the arm on this one so I can someday get him a plasma cannon.

Let me know any C&C.

Working up this Land Raider Crusader in addition to a Lancer right now. Kind of digging the big models right now. I’m pretty happy with the DW color scheme, just need to figure out the final details, decals, and how I want to handle the weathering and chipping.

Lore wise, I guess the guy up top wouldn’t really be a tech marine, but what’re ya gonna do?

Hi everyone,

I have a question. I'm fairly new to Warhammer 40,000, but I've already played several Combat Patrol games and now I'd like to expand my Dark Angels army to 1,000 points.

At the moment, I own the following models from the Combat Patrol:

Captain in Gravis Armour
10 Intercessors
5 Hellblasters
3 Bladeguard Veterans

This is the list I'm currently thinking about:

Azrael
Captain in Gravis Armour
Intercessor Squad (5 models)
Bladeguard Veteran Squad (3 models)
Deathwing Knights (5 models)
Gladiator Lancer (or alternatively a Ballistus Dreadnought)
Hellblaster Squad (5 models)
Inner Circle Companions (3 models)

What do you think about this list? Would you change anything, or is there anything that just doesn't work? Since I'm still new, I'd really appreciate any advice or suggestions. Thanks in advance!
