Here I'll list 3 different lists that you could use to build from. It's all about play testing and finding out what you enjoy and what works for you. Here we go. 
List 1
HQ
Librarian (Shield of Sanguinius and Unleash Rage)
Honor guard (4 Plasma guns) in a Rhino
Elite
Sanguinary Priest (Lightning Claw)
Chaplain
Troops
8 man Assault Squad (Meltagun, Power fist) in a Rhino (Search Lights)
10 man Tactical Squad (Meltagun, Combi-melta, Multi Melta) in a Rhino
10 man Tactical Squad (Meltagun, Combi-melta, Multi Melta) in a Rhino
9 man Death Company (Power fist, Power weapon) in a Rhino
Fast Attack
Baal Predator (Twin Linked Assault cannon, Heavy bolter sponsons)
Heavy Support
Predator (Autocannon turret, Lascannon sponsons)
Predator (Autocannon turret, Lascannon sponsons)
1850 Points Mech
This is a list that would be more of an introductory one imo. It brings to the table a lot of the staple things you'd see in a Space marine list with a bit of Blood Angel flare to it. The Librarian and Priest would join the 8 man Assault squad, and the Chaplain would join the Death Company. This offers up a strong close ranged firing base with some rather frightening counter assault elements from the assault squad and death company. The Baal predator is there for harrying actions and just to be annoying in general to draw fire from the rest of your army and the Predators are there to lay down some hurt.
List 2
HQ
Librarian (Jump pack, Shield and Unleash Rage)
Honor Guard (4 Plasmaguns, Jump packs)
Elite
Sanguinary Priest (Lightning Claw, Jump pack)
Sanguinary Priest (Lightning Claw, Jump pack)
Troops
10 man Assault squad (2 Meltaguns, Power fist)
10 man Assault squad (2 Meltaguns, Power fist)
10 man Assault squad (2 Meltaguns, Power fist)
Fast Attack
7 man Vanguard Vet squad (2 Power fists)
10 man Vanguard Vet squad (2 Power fists, Meltabomb)
1850 Descent of Angels
This list is based around an entirely jump pack based force, which lends itself well to flexibility. You have the 30 strong scoring bodies with more then able priest support to keep your entire force with Furious Charge and Feel no Pain. The 10 man squad should combat squad while deploying from reserves so you can have 3 targets instantly tied up when they hit the ground. Takes a bit more finesse to pull off, but can be very rewarding and a lot of fun to play out.
List 3
HQ
Librarian in Terminator Armor (Storm Shield, Shield of Sanguin. and Unleash Rage)
Elite
Sanguinary Priest (Lightning Claw)
5 man Terminator Assault squad (3 LC, 2 TH/SS) in a Landraider Crusader (Multi Melta, Extra Armor)
Troops
5 man Assault squad (Meltagun, Infernus Pistol)
5 man Assault squad (Flamer) in a Razorback (Twin linked Lascannon)
5 man Assault squad (Flamer) in a Razorback (Twin linked Lascannon)
10 man Assault squad (2 Meltaguns, Power fist)
Fast Attack
2 Multi Melta Attack bikes
2 Multi Melta Attack bikes
Heavy Support
Predator (Autocannon turret, Lascannon sponsons)
Predator (Autocannon turret, Lascannon sponsons)
1850 Mixed approach
This list takes elements of each of the previous two lists and centers it around an Assault terminator unit in a Land Raider Crusader. The Razorbacks and Predators will give long ranged fire support on the approach, and meanwhile the jump pack marines will deep strike into advantageous positions to help pop armor and seize objectives, while the Bikes will just be an annoyance in general- and likely pop a vehicle and then get focused on and die, but that's what they are there for.
So there ya go! Some templates for you to perhaps test out and see what units you enjoy and which playstyle particularly suits you. I've had a wonderful time playing each different kind of list, and it's great to just randomly change it up once in awhile to try something new and exciting.
