So i thought people did not do enough Blood Angels and i am getting some money for my commission work and such so i decided to make a Pre Heresy Blood Angels army.
I have bought 20 Bezerkers from Jul063 and a captain as well which will go from WE to BA
also have a pre heresy jump squad and just finished a pre heresy iron clad dreadnought which will count as a furiso dread as BA cant have iron clads

now a few questions:
1.BA did not have The Black Rage pre heresy right because Sang is not dead yet
2.Were a all assault pack army fluffy for pre heresy?
3.Would the Baal Pred be around?
4.Were all armour marks in use?

pics coming later tonight

1.BA did not have The Black Rage pre heresy right because Sang is not dead yet

Right.

2.Were a all assault pack army fluffy for pre heresy?

Some Legions used them more than others. It was still a relatively new technology, so while I would say 'no'- that would apply to the Legion as a whole, not a specific army. You could definitely get away with saying that it was a strike force, though.

3.Would the Baal Pred be around?

See: http://z15.invisionfree.com/The_Great_Crus...p?showtopic=883

But yeah, it is.

4.Were all armour marks in use?

For Pre-Heresy, It would be safe to use Mk. I-IV. Mk. V was deployed during the Heresy, and VI was still in development until later in the Heresy. VII/VIII... no.

Looking forward to seeing your pictures. Red is a better color than Purple... but I'm biased.

Glad to see a new Blood Angel army I have a post Heresy one which I am waiting for the new book to be released for so I can finish them, this is meant to be the next one after Nids in January and apparently there are pics of the 3 ups on the net for the models just not tracked them down yet waiting for the link.

A comment on the Black Rage I think the Blood Angels already have the flaw in their Phycie (SP?) before the heresy because if I remember correctly the whole Legion that is fighting on the Daemon world suffer from it when Sanguinius gets injured fighting a Bloodthirster during the Heresy.
