Hey all.
I have been playing WHFB for the last 16 yrs or so but have not played 40k since second ed. Im looking to get re-aquainted by starting a Blood Angels force. This seems to be perfect as my favorite models are dreadnoughts and assault troops and i love the idea of lots of drop pods
My question is a simple one. Is a marine army constructed around these 3 choices competitive? Will i need to take terminators with thunder hammers and storm shields to have a chance as I really dont like these as a unit choice? where would this build really suffer and what would people recommend to ballence it?
I know this is a slighty difficult question as the new codex has not been released and i am assuming things (such as assault troops being scoring units). Just wanted to here the thoughts of an experienced community
