Hello, I'm making a Blood Angels list and I want a lot of help to help me win. I play a fantasy army, and it being my first army, I don't do so well in games. It gets a little boring losing time after time. A couple of tips on my 40k list would help alot. (By the way, should I just create my own chapter instead?)

First, I've made an all tank list, I don't know if that's good or not.

HQ:
MoS w/ artificer armor, jetpack, mask of death, terminator honours, bolt pistol, frag grenades, bionics: 282p

ELITE:
Furioso Dreadnought w/ extra armor, smoke launchers: 103p
Furioso Dreadnought w/ extra armor, smoke launchers: 103p
Furioso Dreadnought w/ extra armor, smoke launchers: 103p

TROOP:
6 Marines: 90p

TRANSPORT:
Blood Angels Razorback w/ extra armor: 90p
Blood Angels Razorback w/ extra armor: 90p
Blood Angels Razorback w/ extra armor: 90p

FAST ATTACK:
3 Landspeeder Tornadoes: 240p
3 Landspeeder Tornadoes: 240p

HEAVY SUPPORT:
Baal Predator w/ extra armor, heavy bolter side-sponsons: 125p
Baal Predator w/ extra armor, heavy bolter side-sponsons: 125p
Baal Predator w/ extra armor, heavy bolter side-sponsons: 125p

Total Amry Value: 1986p
I thought that 9 Assault Cannons, 11 Heavy Bolters and still, a unit of DC is pretty good.

I also recognized the troop advantages to the Blood Angels, what do you think of this list?

HQ:
MoS w/ artificer armor, jetpack, mask of death, terminator honours, bolt pistol, frag grenades, bionics: 282p

TROOP:
10 Marines w/ meltagun, VS w/ power weapon: 175p
10 Marines w/ meltagun, VS w/ power weapon: 175p
10 Blood Angels Scouts w/ VS w/ power fist: 158p

TRANSPORT:
Blood Angels Rhino w/ extra armor, smoke launchers: 73p
Blood Angels Rhino w/ extra armor, smoke launchers: 73p

FAST ATTACK:
10 Assault Marines w/ (2) plasma pistols, VS w/ power fist: 260p
10 Assault Marines w/ (2) plasma pistols, VS w/ power fist: 260p
2 Landspeeder Tornadoes: 160p

HEAVY SUPPORT:
Baal Predator w/ extra armor, heavy bolter side-sponsons: 125p
Baal Predator w/ extra armor, heavy bolter side-sponsons: 125p
Baal Predator w/ extra armor, heavy bolter side-sponsons: 125p

Total Army Value: 1991p
I also thought this was pretty good because it has a fair amount of troops plus good cover fire.

Please help me out here. If you can, tell me which list is better and why. Or if not either of them, give me some suggestions please.

The All-tank list I would rip to shreads in a couple of rounds I assure you. I think you have way to many points in to much low range/AV-tanks.

The other list seems better IMO as it has at least some Marines in it.

I only know Loyalist marines from the other side of the board ,as my opponents that is, but there are a couple of things I might say.

10 Blood Angels Scouts w/ VS w/ power fist: 158p

I would have two smaller squads and drop the vet sarge, give them sniper rifles and Missiles instead.

10 Assault Marines w/ (2) plasma pistols, VS w/ power fist: 260p
10 Assault Marines w/ (2) plasma pistols, VS w/ power fist: 260p

Here I would drop the plasma pistols as they tend to overheat and those Assault Marines are quite expensive. Melta bombs works very well on these guys I know from bitter experience. Meltaguns are also nice, both for Tankhunting and for shooting heavy units before assaulting.

HEAVY SUPPORT:

Three Baals could be a bit overfocusing. I think there are times when yuo want some longranged antitank or something other then the good old Baal. Two are fine but you are a bit weak on the anti-tank (I think).
