Heh, I love Blood Angels kinda for the opposite reason to Dave. I got into Blood Angels back in third edition because of the lore behind them, how they fell into the black rage due to the anguish of their primarch dying, how when they fall to the rage it fills them with such blood lust that the only thing they can see is the traitorous marines fighting against them no matter the foe. The fact that their hatred for chaos marines are so strong that they will never fight against the emperor even if emperor himself would denounce them. I also love how most Blood Angels are artistic and that they probably have the most wondrous chapter-buildings of all the chapters, wielding the most intricate and beautiful banners to war, even though it's seldom seen in Blood Angel armies. And the darkness in it all.. how they drink the blood from their fallen foes after each battle. How they actually have a Grim Reaper (Astorath) that goes to each major battle to slay any Blood Angel that has fallen to far into the Black Rage and collects the ones that are close. How they send out Death Companies to die one last time, not expecting them to survive at all as they rush towards their enemies in the glory of the emperor with no care of pain or death. And Morleo Moriar, the very first Death Company dreadnought, what an awesome character to field in battle, now long gone in history. It's all from my memories, going back years.. much has changed since I started playing, new characters, new units, new lore. But I still love Blood Angels and I'm currently near 25k points.
Hi, I'm thinking of starting to play 40K and the Blood Angels seem really cool to me. What's a good starting unit for a beginner with nothing? I only ask since you seen to when what's what. Any help is appreciated.
@@noahmullane7585 Hey there, I've yet to play much in 9th edition so giving advice on your starting purchase seems a bit wrong for me. But since you have nothing, best thing would be getting a HQ that you like idea of and two troop choices, even though I'm not a big fan of primaris marines from the lore side of things, they are a good choice. I'm afraid that Blood Angels are not a very high tier army so I wouldn't gripe over trying to get the best units, instead get what you think is cool. Any unit is useful in its own situation after all. Or if you really want to try to get the best models, google for Blood Angel tournament lists and see what people are using. :)
@@Dwaggiemorph Thanks for the advice, I would have never thought to look at tournament list. While I want something cool, I do want something that could reasonable win. Don't want so much losing that I stop before I even begin.
@@noahmullane7585 I can understand that, there's one more advice I would like to give in that case. Even if you copy a tournament list, the army will only preform as well as the player commanding it, so practice, learn your units strengths and weaknesses and when you think you know everything about your army, just remember that it's only part of what you need to be a good player. :) The rules, your army and the opponents army are the three big fundamentals to learn.
I’ve been collecting blood angels for 20 plus years. Since second edition. I love them. I have several squads of the very old beaky marines from way back. Did I mention I love blood angels.
Yay! So glad to see Dave back! I have been collecting Blood angels for 4-5 years now and my first and fav army. Dave spot on nailed everything good about BA there. I could talk about them for hours they are just the perfect balance of chaos, awesomeness and.... gah I love them...... For Sanguinius!
I like how they are designated as the "And then things got worse" chapter. I just hate their Taxi cab colors! But lorewise, there's just something about those characters that are noble, but things never work out for them
You guys really need to do more videos like this. Where you show a army and talk about the lore a bit and why you like it. Very awesome job. Well done !
Dave pretty much hit my love of Blood Angels on the mark. They were my first intro into 40K lore, and I loved the idea of these demi-god beings fighting a constant temptation to give into their nature, but instead prevailing and becoming champions for humanity.
Dave: Fights like Khorne, looks like a White Scar (before he cut his hair) talks like a son of Sanguinius. Also Dave try the Sang Guard as some cheaper terminator-types. Might help you.
Why do I love Blood Angels? Blood Angels were my first army. I love them more and more as I read the lore behind them. They are some of the nobelist warriors in service to Humanity and still maintain a sense of humility. Sadly they aren't as great on the table as they once were but I still enjoy playing them non the less.
I'm kinda new and I've been building my blood angels army. I'm confused as to how having models from other armies work. I know it's something to do with keywords but I don't know what. Or even if they do have anything to do with keywords. If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.
169th! Blood Angels are my favorite chapter. My Reasons are that they are FAST, they have something that seperates them from other chapters, and they are just really cool.
So WHY ARE the blood angels red? Fashion? The hue of their favorite beverage? The red dusts of Baal? The mournful color of its ruddy sun? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY???
I don't get in these showcases why you would need 100 tac marines or 80 assault marines BUT ITS BLOOD ANGELS SO SCREW YA NEED MORE! AND MORE ANGERY BOIS!
The sons of sanguinius are the best loyalists because of their aesthetic and playstyle for me. They're also the closest to slaanesh that I think loyalists can get
Dave, about "what to add to this army", have you ever thought about a super-heavy tank, or vehicle of some sort? There are tons (pun intended) of them for Horus Heresy, and I think many of them have rules in 40k as well now.
Why do I love sob? Because Celestine and sanguinius are a perfect match. They both has angel wings. I want them to get married. Listen, if I want to have midnight tea parties with sanguinius and Celestine I $&+?ing will.
My favourite part of my blood angel army is the ranged units. Seriously, most of the time when I use assault units they get shredded in close combat, I don't get why. A vast majority of the times I fought Tau they rekt my in close combat. So, in my experience, the most effective lists I've had is using a lot of devastators, heavy weapons, tanksa nd such supported by sanguinary noviets/priests, lieutenants and captains with a few assault unit distraction carnifexes.
I'm not joking. My rolling always seems to get really shitty when in close combat, there's also another time when 3 grots took out a 5 man vanguard veteran squad in close combat. I think I should just start playing Imperial Fists
God, I wish we could take the Assult Marines as troops, or why cant the "Upgraded/superior" Primaris use jump packs. 9th Killed the identity of Blood Angels.
Have you found the missing 3 Angels yet? I like them because their Primarch was at the Battle of Terra. Their Primarch isn't an administrator. They aren't blue. Rage. Blood. Attack. Charge... Remember kids, always remind that Ultramarine player that their Primarch wasn't with the Emperor at the Battle of Terra. It's good for your soul.

Glad to see Dave back! Channel isn't the same with out him!
I’ve been collecting blood angels for 20 plus years. Since second edition. I love them. I have several squads of the very old beaky marines from way back. Did I mention I love blood angels.
I would love to see these fantastic Blood Angels back in action. Please don't forget about them when you are making videos Dave!

Didn't know you had Lamenters, they are awesome my favorite chapter.
Nathan the poor guys just cant catch a break though
They were originally Adam's from greenleaf terrain if I'm not mistaken. They purchased them from him.
i wouldn't call them a chapter haha
I like how they are designated as the "And then things got worse" chapter.
I just hate their Taxi cab colors! But lorewise, there's just something about those characters that are noble, but things never work out for them
Those Lamenters are amazing!!! Way better than mine.
You guys really need to do more videos like this. Where you show a army and talk about the lore a bit and why you like it. Very awesome job. Well done !
Can you guys do a miniwargaming apcolypse , where you guys play a game with all your 40k armies
Literally when I saw this I screamed out loud “BLOOD ANGELS!” it was a weight off my shoulders
Nice to see Khrone on the table. your chaos army video got me collecting chaos. so many tanks
Missed you Dave! Great to see you back making videos.
Dave pretty much hit my love of Blood Angels on the mark. They were my first intro into 40K lore, and I loved the idea of these demi-god beings fighting a constant temptation to give into their nature, but instead prevailing and becoming champions for humanity.
What a wonderful collection.
Dave: Fights like Khorne, looks like a White Scar (before he cut his hair) talks like a son of Sanguinius.
Also Dave try the Sang Guard as some cheaper terminator-types. Might help you.
Hey is that you at 2:22?
Lmao Sam, well played
I wish dave and the others would to a campain together again. Dave helped convince me on my chaos army and i miss his old life of a wargamer series
Yay Dave is back. I can't wait to see his why I love chaos space marines video
I see through your disguise, Ka'Bandha!!! 😁😁😈😈
I am going to start collecting blood angels.
Why do I love Blood Angels? Blood Angels were my first army. I love them more and more as I read the lore behind them. They are some of the nobelist warriors in service to Humanity and still maintain a sense of humility. Sadly they aren't as great on the table as they once were but I still enjoy playing them non the less.
Do a "why I love chaos" video please Dave . why? Well here's why...bloodforthebloodgod!!!!
I approve
I expect it's a lot bigger now heh. I'm starting back from scratch. Night Lords/Chaos. Glory to the Eighth.
Started collecting them around the same time when the new codex at the time came out
Dave!!! I am actually thinking of picking these guys up for 30K and smaller list 40K/Kill Team next year
I'm kinda new and I've been building my blood angels army. I'm confused as to how having models from other armies work. I know it's something to do with keywords but I don't know what. Or even if they do have anything to do with keywords. If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.
Dave!
Ps. I would die if you posted a Matt v Dave Banter Batrep!
I do love the blood angels and am kinda new. Where can I look to see the reason they are red?
Most of what you said is why I enjoy them.
suggestion: use medium dry brush to remove the dust before show case will be a good idea.
Sanguinus was a good boy that's why blood angels are ok with me.
97... Aren't a handful of the BA second company permanently stationed at the monument for the Astral Knights?
169th!
Blood Angels are my favorite chapter.
My Reasons are that they are FAST, they have something that seperates them from other chapters, and they are just really cool.
This is close to half a Chapter me thinks... :D Awesome!!!!!
So WHY ARE the blood angels red? Fashion? The hue of their favorite beverage? The red dusts of Baal? The mournful color of its ruddy sun? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY???
I don't get in these showcases why you would need 100 tac marines or 80 assault marines
BUT ITS BLOOD ANGELS SO SCREW YA NEED MORE! AND MORE ANGERY BOIS!
Wait till they do the chaos one
The sons of sanguinius are the best loyalists because of their aesthetic and playstyle for me. They're also the closest to slaanesh that I think loyalists can get
More games with them please!!
I also gravitated towards corn on the cobb because it's what corn is supposed to be.
Do i see lamenters? Hell yeah man, represent
I got into blood angels cause their lore was interesting and commander Dante’s back story. But my favourite space marine chapter is the flesh tearers.
I love Blood Angels because their armor has nipples, and nipples are sensetive, just like them.
Great collection!
Dave, about "what to add to this army", have you ever thought about a super-heavy tank, or vehicle of some sort? There are tons (pun intended) of them for Horus Heresy, and I think many of them have rules in 40k as well now.
wait there's video of dave drinking blood?
Mr. Creazil Yup
Mr. Creazil type miniwargaming blood and guys on RUclips
Dave my dude, that is an excellent shirt.
Can we PLEASE have a battle of the entire Chaos collection vs the entire Blood Angel collection?
Chainswords from the sky.. nuff said!!!
Imagine if Sanguineous landed on Nuceria and Angron on Baal how it would turn out
Fantastic!!!
no chapter master slamguinius?
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!
SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!!
It was hilarious to watch Mephiston blowing himself with his plasma pistol
More flesh tearers! MORE WROTH!!! RAAAAAAGE!!!
Grab 1:51 3 blood angel heros separate the little blind boxs just for numbers sake
“... and three bikes”
4:52 hey, I'm right here.
we need an update!
in "a year" from now, all firstborn are not allowed in the new edition of 40k. RIP
A collection spanning 7 years you say? For some that’s more than enough for 7 lifetimes
Umm think on your Terminators not doing so well... He seems to be missing his head.
William Henry the one in tank right??. I thought that one of lore.. 😂
The story reminds me of The Day Walker - Blade....
All these BA vs all Matts Tyranids Battle Report and do a narrative game of the Devestation of Baal.
DAVE WOOOO
i love the blood angels me ❤🤟🤘🐯
Now Dave..... tell us why you worship CHAOS!!!
i love blood angels
How the hell do you story 20000 points of blood angels
over 20k points and only 10 Sanguinary guard?
The next one has to be dark angels..... Because I play them.... Or something like that
Lamenters heck yeah
Why don't u have astaroth
Why do I love sob? Because Celestine and sanguinius are a perfect match. They both has angel wings. I want them to get married.
Listen, if I want to have midnight tea parties with sanguinius and Celestine I $&+?ing will.
Chaos in Space Marine form... so Chaos Soace Marines?
only 10 sanguard?
"80 Assault Marines and 20 Vanguard Veterans"
Stop right there. Those numbers should be reversed.
2:22 where's your head at?
Remind me again what you guys actually do?
DAVEEEEEEEE!!!! :D
40,000- 20,527=19,473 points needed well you are still young you will probably live long enough to fulfill sanguinius's dream.
My favourite part of my blood angel army is the ranged units.
Seriously, most of the time when I use assault units they get shredded in close combat, I don't get why. A vast majority of the times I fought Tau they rekt my in close combat.

Mark Creates are you joking? Are you fucking joking???? Why are you joking???!!!
...HOW?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not joking. My rolling always seems to get really shitty when in close combat, there's also another time when 3 grots took out a 5 man vanguard veteran squad in close combat. I think I should just start playing Imperial Fists
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
sweeeeeet!
God, I wish we could take the Assult Marines as troops, or why cant the "Upgraded/superior" Primaris use jump packs.
9th Killed the identity of Blood Angels.
hersey!
Awwww lamantors
But why 20,000? You'd rarely use more than 3000
so you could just about make a FULL chapter eh?
Harlequins next?
Chaos Space Marines, Blue Space Marines, Red Space Marines, Green Space Marines - woah such options!
I’m a big fan but can’t aford a big army
Give me the lamentors omg lol
How much did they all cost ? 5k ?🤣🤣
I don’t like this chapter u can tell what chapter i like
Have you found the missing 3 Angels yet?
I like them because their Primarch was at the Battle of Terra. Their Primarch isn't an administrator. They aren't blue. Rage. Blood. Attack. Charge...
Remember kids, always remind that Ultramarine player that their Primarch wasn't with the Emperor at the Battle of Terra. It's good for your soul.
ill fight you over that lol dont try and taint my army lol
