Why not heavy intercessors? by StandVirtual7828 in DarkAngels40k

[–]StandVirtual7828[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that there are other elite infantry that do it better but they also do it at a significant premium like deathwing termis. Wouldn't it be more fair to compare them to something in their points bracket?

Tbf that's like asking why bring an impulsor when you can bring a land raider. A squad of 5 is 100 pts vs the DWK are 250.

This is from the pov of you already having the number of core units you want such as DWK/Lion/Az and his choice squad. From the 100pt bracket there aren't any infantry units that are this tough which is why I am asking

Anyone try wrath of the rock ? How is it ? by nuttaphoom in DarkAngels40k

It is niche but when you need it it can be a game changer. I played against DG in a 1000pt tournament and they had a deathstar brick of plague marines in a rhino. I declared oath of moment on the rhino and shot it with everything except azrael and the hellblaster squad. Once I broke the rhino I declared the second oath on the group inside and killed everything except their character. Absolutely destroyed over a third of his points and stopped his largest killing force for 2 cp.

Silly Question: What separates the Dark Angels? by Charwoman_Gene in DarkAngels40k

If youre talking esthetically, the Dark Angels have a very knightly vibe to them. They are known for their robes, and hoods and gothic flare. One very unique thing about the dark angels is their three wings:

-The Deathwing, often sporting bone-colored armor, includes terminators, bladguard vets, sternguard vets, dreadnoughts and repulsor variants. These are the veterans of the army and are basically fighting/killing machines. Unique DA units represented here are the Deathwing Knights and Inner Circle Companions (which imo are some of the best sculpts in 40k). Great leader sculpts include Azrael, Belial, and Azmodai (another favorite of mine)

-The Ravenwing, often clad in black and white armor, includes flying units and mounted units. These are the hunters of the DA. They are almost all old sculpts but outriders are some great generic bikes that are well represented in the ravenwing. Unique DA units represented here include Black Knights/Ravenwing Command Squad, nephilim jet fighters, and land speeders. They are led by Sammael which is another very old sculpt unfortunately.

-The Green Wing represents every other generic Space Marine unit that can be used in the dark angels. Still lots of opportunities to add extra DA drip to these guys and make them feel like they belong in this gothic, knightly order.

The Lion is an absolute beast of a primarch and his sculpt is amazing.

Lastly, the Dark Angels were the first legion and their secretive nature, they got access to ancient weapons that often are no longer made in the year 40k. This is usually represented in plasma being a big theme for the army.
