I,m making a list with two squads of marines in rhinos, 2 assault squads, 2 chaplains, a scout squad and 3 baal preds. Should i take out a squad of assault marines and put in something else or should i keep it the way it is? See Friendly Blood Angels 2000p Advice Appreciated if you want to see my list. It is the last reply.

I would seriously ditch the scots, and try to have the following:

2 chaplains w/ Death company
2 Assault squads
2 marine squads in BA rhinos
3 Baal preds

Perhaps make the assault squads veteren assault squads...
I wouldn't take out the assault squad but I would take out 1 of the chaplains for another squad w/ lascannon or a devastator squad for tank hunting
Personally I think it sounds really cool and like it would do well. Why not give it a try?
I agree with Augustine; it looks fine to me!

Two assault squads are fine, but you should take more tactical squads. A bunch of samll ones will give you a bigger death company.
Assault squads work wonders in a blood angel army, the furious charge really helps!
Although in a 2000pt army I would reccomend the extra assault squad after the 2 chaplains are added. As well as at least two speeders for supporting fire.

Thanks, what do you think of this?

How about 1 Chaplain, 2 Squads of Assault Marines, 2 Squads of Tactical Marines in Rhinos, 1 Squad of Scouts, 3 Landspeeder Tornadoes and 3 Baal Preds. What do you guys think? (2000 points)
Its not bad, but you only have 3 troop squads thats a no-no for BA!
This is because your going to want alot of squads to generate you DC; and trust me, you don't want to lose an assault marine!
Drop one tornado and add in another squad of marines (las-plas, preferably).

Should I take out an assault squad and put in a tactical las-plas and a scout?
Nah, I'd leave it.

Just remember that your 2 Chaplains will fight side by side in a single massive Death Company unit, not 2 smaller units.
