Sitting around musing over army lists, and came up with a rather silly one that I figured I'd post for fun. Not necessarily a terrible idea, but I'm not really sure how viable it would be. 1850 points Mephiston Sanguinor Honor guard (Jp, 3 Plasmaguns, 1 Melta) Honor guard (Jp, 4 Plasmaguns) 10 man Assault squad (2 flamer, PW) 10 man Assault squad (2 flamer, PW) 10 man Assault squad (2 melta, PW) 10 man Assault squad (2 melta, PW) And that's it. 52 models, the idea would be to start them on the board and blarg across as one big blob of angry red. The Sanguinor does A LOT for this kind of list with his bubble of +1 attack. Thinking about the look on people's faces when I put this on the table makes me giggle.... in a bad way. If I were ever motivated to put together this many JP marines (Would need to put together approximately 20-25 more then I have currently... I think) I would be inclined to try it for fun. So, is this a sign I'm going out of my mind?

welcome to the club of "going out of your mind"
Ever since I originally decided to play blood angels it was my intention to put together an all jump-pack list. I played it under the WD list for them (didn't go so well since it was against Trevor's Termie-bomb) which wasn't as good since they couldn't take meltas then.
I haven't tried it out with the new book yet.

I would say you need a few priests to make them survivable, and maybe a few more meltaguns, but other than that looks like its good to test out

I like this list... although as Thomas said some priests would likely help...
acting like an Ork is always a guarantee to success... well of a sort... at least you get to see models die horribly!!!

Honor guards have priests built in. So that's two 6'' FnP bubbles already. And models dying horribly is what it's all about Shannon.

The 2500 point version for Ard Boyz would add another 2 full Assault squads and a JP chaplain. Is that 71 marines with 3 attacks base (4 for vets) with FNP and Jump packs you say?! ffff plus a plethora of plasma / melta and some big monster HQs.

12 meltaguns is what my response is to them.
