Brother Edward's 
top three 
Blood Angel army lists
 The three lists shown here can be used to defeat any enemy in any scenario, if you know which army to use when - and how to use it!

I. The first list is a "general purpose Blood Angel army", the list has a good mix of units and equipment which are useful against many foes - this list will allow you to do well in most scenarios against most foes (including shooty Eldar, Tau and Imperial Guard if used correctly!). 

II. The second list is a dedicated assault army - it assumes you are playing a mission where you know you get the firt turn (some scenarios give you this). The list has sacrificed anti armor capability for assault strength - it is not for use against troop heavy armies, it is to be used against enemies with weak troops. Using this army well requires a great deal of experience - it is the most challenging selection here. 

III. The third list is a more defensive list specifically made to counter swarm armies - it is ideal when fighting against a numerically superior force, specifically swarm armies who will run at you (nids/orks/some guard)

If you are fighting a defensive battle against mobile shooty Tau or Eldar you should use the first "general purpose" list, and engage the enemy using standard tactics - Blood Angels will not outshoot a shooty army, you must therefore seek to engage them on your own terms - your general purpose list is ideally suited to this. Some may opt to go with a Dedicated Assault army - and this can work, though the lack of anti vehicle weapons may come back to haunt you after you've wiped out their infantry....

Army List II
Dedicated Assault 2000pt Blood Angel Army
by Blood Angel Brother Edward

Greetings brothers!

   General lists are fun, but I admit openly that I really do enjoy making more specialized lists (because around here we usually gear each list to our specific scenario and enemy), so have a peek at this fun army :)  This one is built expressly with assault in mind, I don't usually use terminators - but if you can land them in an assault early with your landraider they can be a constant thorn in your enemy's side as you land the rest of your supporting assaults! So with no further ado, here's a list for your review and enjoyment!
