Blood Angel Army 2k - One step closer to the BA travel list

I basically make two or three lists a week that I consider packing on a plane and taking across the country.  This is one that I have been somewhat excited about and am looking forward to testing next week.


The idea here is that the Rune Priests use Divination and roll with a couple of assault squads.  The Reclusiarch is here to give me a 3 wound warlord with a cheap power fist, a good special ability and an invulnerable save.

There is a lot of versatility in this list but I mostly see me just surging forward and hoping for the best.  The easy kill points here will need to be sort of protected but I don't see that being too much of a problem.

It sucks that jump packs sort of get the bone AGAIN in this edition by not being able to use some of their special powers if you use them in the movement phase but eh...  Its not that big of a deal and it will be nice in the late game when units are typically closer to each other.

It is very possible that the Storm Raven here isn't needed and that I either need to find points for another raven or scrap it all together and get something else all together.

Hopefully this will tide you guys over a little bit till chaos comes out!!
