  • Shame about the las-plas confusion. I personally liked the Mark I variant to the jawaback!

  • You should deep strike your dred in a drop pod

  • What would people recomend a chaplain and a predator like the ones in this vid or a reclusiarch and a dakka pred?

  • The mark on the las-plas Mark 1 tank looks like an X-egg from Shugo Chara. <3

  • I see that you are as adept at mixed autocannon + laser cannon on the flank for the predator. ^ ^

    My friends often criticize this mixed but now I no longer feel alone in the world.

  • @TheARBITER57740 Ask your friends how many Grand Tournaments they have won, or even finished in the top three at! :) The auto/las pred is a great buy.

  • @jawaballs They have never won: P. But I totally agree that the mixed auto / laser combination is great. =) And the interressent is that it does not cost very much in point, in any case unless a predator annhilator.

  • I was woundering if for your marines did you paint them the same way as you tanks with the Black then Dragon red army painter?

  • if i could make a commission from i would have this army list

  • Great models jawaballs there so badass do you do painting/conversions for one or two models and If you do how much do they cost?

  • is this good HQ:librarian:125pt -jp -might of heroes -sanguine sword elites: priest:75pt -Jp priest:75pt -Jp Troops: assault squad:225pt -x5 more men -x2 melta guns sarg w/ power fist assault squad:225pt -x5 more men -x2 melta guns sarg w/ power fist each priest joins one squad, librarian joins one of the squads. and its figurative that the might of heroes could take down hordes, with the combination of the power fist and meltas to bomb tanks and rip those nasty big old creature away.
  • dont ya just love the fact in the new blood angels codex that land raiders are dedicated transports

  • how u get priest in terminator armour from? also can i put 2 out of 4 of my hqs in a squad as a sgt and just pay for there power fists and stuff and they dont count as hq then have other 2 as hqs not in squads?

  • @Hortik249 I converted that model from a terminator chaplain. And no, you can only have two HQ choices, no matter where you put them.

  • jawaballs how did you get that space hulk model do you have the whole set of space hulk terminators are they painted and are you willing to sell them :)

  • @destuctir I do have a whole set of space hulk models that I would be willing to paint, but it is not cheap!

  • thats a really nice done land raider

  • how do u have 3 hq

  • @AGDwussy I dont!

  • is the priest only for blood angels and if not how do you get it

  • isnt your armour illegal with 3 hq in your LRC

  • @destuctir There are three indipenedent characters in the land raider, totally legal. You could have limitless ICs attached to a squad.

  • @jawaballs but i know the librarian and chaplain are hq but i thought the priest was too at the time

  • hey jawa about CC terminators what is the best weapons to use lightning or hammer hsield one of my friends uses shiel and 1 claw saying best of both but i got the feeling that isnt aloud so i see you have 4 claws and 1 hammer is that the best configuration for them

  • @destuctir They cant have a shield and claw. I use 4 claws and a shield in my squad. I don't know if that is the best, but I win Grand Tournaments. Does your friend?

  • @jawaballs no his army is illegal in every single way

  • @jawaballs also i have a 5 man terminator assault squad but i use a redeemer so what should i take for 6th space

  • hey jawa great job i am making a 2k army list aswell that is firrerent but i have a assault squad in redeemer so i was wondering what should take the sixth spot for my land raider or should i go for the crusader its just i dont have many points left about 200 maybe 300 max to pick the sixth guy with

  • Comment removed

  • @destuctir 3 hq units is against the rules, getting rid of one of them will allow you to change the combat squad to a tactical. a rhino and lrc isnt realy much in the department of transporting yout troops accross the board. you lack power to take out tanks and should probably take a devastor squad instead of the combat squad that is if you make your list legal!

  • Jawaballs you are my idole you made me want to start a Blood angels army gust one thing You should get sanguinary guard keep up the good work :)

  • how did you convert your Priest termy to have the goblet?

  • Hey Jawa, incredibly good painting as normal, never sent you a msg before but I always enjoy your vids, Blood Angels have been my favourite chapter for 14 years.. Just one little thing about the "Las?Plas" Razorback, the weapon itself is counted as just one weapon, so if you get a weapon destroyed result, both weapons go as they're mounted on the same turret. Same goes to any Razorback weapon be it twin-linked heavy bolter or whatever. Conversions are very cool though, Keep it up.

  • @SassMaestro Thanks man. As far as las/plas, the official errata/faq clears up the issue. They are indeed considered separate weapon systems, so they require two weapon destroyed results to take out. Take a look!

  • @jawaballs .....SWEEET! Was thinking of adding a few into my force, now thanks to you might invest in two! What's your opinion on Land Speeders? Was suprsied not to see any in this force seeing as its a very mechanized one.

  • @SassMaestro watch part 2 he drops the dreadnoguth for 2 land speeders

  • Comment removed

  • how many points u hav in all cuz id like 2 battle u

  • Termy squad with the librarian's shield of sanguinis, feel no pain, and that annoying armor of theirs (not to mention all the offensive buffs the priest and chaplain give)...that squad looks geared to survive! Scary scary stuff. ;)

  • JAWA BABY FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Talk about a easy color scheme

  • should do at battle report on your tau

  • i cant stop watching this vid because ur models r painted so well. ive seen it lie 500 times

  • i have been watching a lot of your videos on youtube and i have to say that you are awesome dude real hot shit with a paint brush ive been in the hobby for about 6-7 yearsmy original army was and still is blood angels and still cant paint as good as you, i really love your work man, really love the tips you give, its a pitty i couldn't get you to paint some stuff for me i live in australia, but i still love your vids and love your painting, its also awesome that you have a family that love you

  • Excellent Painting!!

  • are normal dreadnoughts good for blood angels

    Multi-Melta And PowerFist?

  • have you thought about swapping the terminators for death company with power weapons. just a thought, do you have any comments on the switch as i am building an army similar to yours just with death company instead of terminators.

  • @staticbatch No, DC with PW cost 35 points. Termy cost 40. But both have Furious Charge and Feel no pain with the priest in there, and the termies have 2+/5+ saves. Big difference after wiping out a squad on the charge and facing a turn of shooting!

  • Comment removed

  • @MrHeavyBolter If you take one, you must take packs for the entire squad.

  • hi jawaballs(: i have a few questions:

    In my Blood Angels Army in a DC squad can i have 4 with Jump Packs and 6 With Normal Packs?

    Is it worth buying more rhinos i have 2?

    Anyone answer please(:

  • How do you pain them like that? I'm a good painter and all but I can never make thos shadow n stuff on the figures.... Can you post a vid on how to do that for space marines?

  • how did you make the furioso move like that?

    

  • Just a question about vanilla marines, would 1x land speeder, a couple of rhinos, 1x tac squad and 1x combat plus 2x assaults and a standard commander be a decent army? I plan on adding land speeders, scouts, etc, but just wondering if this will do for now.

  • First off love these vids! Just a couple questions 1) Why the landraider crusader? Wouldnt a standard landraider with its laz guns give you a little more bang for your buck? and 2) With your dred, might it not be better to deep strike him into the thick of battle rather than run behind your main force, give your opponent some thing to chew on while you bear down on him?

  • @ssejr01 The LRC has more transport capacity. And almost always, when you drop a single dread into enemy lines it will be destroyed before it does any thing. Too many guys are packing melta guns nowaeayds

  • omg dude if youre going to be doing videos like this please shave your arm....

  • You need to create some conversion videos!

    Some of your models look excellent

  • @screwmanx Hmm, well, I don't really do any conversions, just mix and match kit bashing. Most of my models are MKI and MKII vets. As I create my new infantry i will keep that in mind.

  • where do you get those gothic number decals that he numbered those tanks with??

  • @Emidretrauqe I hand painted those. :) The only decals were the black blood angels symbols.

  • @jawaballs well where did you find that number font? I'd like to use that on my own army at some point <:)

  • @Emidretrauqe It appears on the Space marine transfer sheet that comes in every space marine box set! :)

  • @jawaballs D*: Grey Knights have no box set....

  • @Emidretrauqe I do believe there is an inquisition transfer sheet though! Could be wrong. And they used to have box sets. :)

  • @jawaballs but you know what, I can just buy one for a few dollars online...so thanks for helping me find them!

  • man, he's hongry! (hongry is used when hungry just doesn't suffice!!)

  • ooh i remember the times when that dread was the 'ream the la cream' from your army and when he won the game against that 2K of tau.

  • @bloodmarine111 On occasion he has come up big, but those occasions are too few and far between to warrant him having a spot in my army when every point is crucial every game.

  • Chris wouldnt it be smarter if you had short ranged guns on the razorbacks that are out and about capturing objectives.you can move 12 already and shoot one gun. because your blood angles.but why not go with the assault cannon?

  • @AutarchAndrew because to be effective AC have to get close. I can sit back behind terrain and other tanks and shoot the las cannons, and if I need I can get a little closer and shoot the las and the plas. Plus with the BA tanks, I can sit back much longer, and then charge out when I need to at the end of the game. Las/plas, with 3 killer shots at close range is just as effective vs troops as AC are. But LP are way better vs tanks and at long range.

  • @jawaballs aright then Ill go for the las/plas build.im building a razorback right now hope you dont mind but im going to steal your idea about the las in the back with the light and the plasmaguns on the front.ok

  • @AutarchAndrew That is what building community is all about my man! Have fun.

  • Nice video, nice army

  • And like someone said earlier, it's different from the old triple baal, triple drop pod dreads you used to run.

  • Also, I'm surprised that the assault squads are like...'assault squad lites,' if you get my meaning. It's interesting seeing the bare minimum on squads at this points level.

  • OK - Nova Open is over , so where are the Baal Preds? You're famous for the 3 Baal Pred lists ?

  • @ultradude2468 Same painting method! But a little refined since I have gotten better at it!

  • dude the freehand designs on your land raider are amazing can you do a vid on how you start with one. do you look up a design in the book or make up your own and how yoe go about painting it up. thanks

  • @BaileyBankai Haha every time I put up one of those videos, I get harassed for being conceited, but sure! I will put up a vid talking about the wings.

  • @jawaballs you mean freehand not wings you got confused i think. lol.

    ps i will flame anyone who calls you concieted. your work is great and is amazing that you spend your time, when you have a child. to show us your great work

  • The furioso dread may not have been super helpful, but he looks super good and honestly, thats what Blood Angels are all about :P

    Thanks for the vid Jawaballs.

  • @Jawaballs What place you got with this army list?

  • @Jawaballs what place you got with this army list?

  • hey dude, could you do some vids talking about how to start up a blood angels list. i have been having trouble starting up a list, im currentley doing nids and blood angels sound like a fun army for 1000 points.

  • @MrDreamblade Thats coming up soon as part of this set.

  • nice list and painting mate :o I like your 'surprises' x) also like your painting :) it's a little bright for me :) but that's just personal opinion x)

  • Man, I hate blood angels so damn much, but your army is fraking amaizing man.

  • Like the army grate paint job do you have any painting tips ?

  • @Thestuka1 Watch my videos! My channel is full of em.

  • cool 2,000 point Army!

  • Comment removed

  • anyone who would argue that both the lascannon and plasma guns were destroyed because you can't just remove one is a bit of a douche ;)

    shame about the dread's non-performance. it's so rare to find models that are awesome and also useful.

    Anyhoo, great vid. Thumbs up!

  • they better give black templars an amazing upgrade to crusaders, as it was unique to us! hopefully they give us them realllly really cheap in next update!

  • 5:25 hahaha

  • hey Jawa, very nice army. How did you do the golden chalice for the priest?

  • @daisoke2001 It is an item from Space Hulk. I used a terminator storm shield arm, attached a tactical marine left hand, and just glued it in place.

  • That Furioso could've done with a bit of matte varnish perhaps, he was very shiny.

    Otherwise cool stuff, I'm not a competitive player so I can't comment on list builds really... just a painter :P

  • @Henners1991 Hmm I will have to look at it. I use Valejo Satin Varnish on my models. I sorta like the soft shine.

  • I think this is your first video I really enjoyed and learned a lot from. You explained everything in detail. I myself am trying to build an Iron Warrior army on similar principles, with the necessary chaotic changes of course. Still working the ins and outs.

  • I'm no expert on BAs, but I think the dreadnought is over points if this is a 2k list. Otherwise, it's 2k exactly. Sorry if I'm wrong. :D

  • @ThornVictorious The dread as I play him costs 150 points. The list itself is probably a bit over because I have changed it slightly since the Nova Open. But as I said, it was not an exact number, just "about" 2k points. :)

  • @jawaballs No worries, Jawaballs. Like I said, I am no expert on BAs. I play Codex Marines (the only regular who does anymore at the FLGS), so yeah. I've been inspired by a lot of your work, though. Your army videos and blog are among the few sources I view as credible in regards to how Marines can be played competitively. The tactics do change lots since BA's and Codex are so different now, but it gets me thinking. Props!

  • jawaballs those assault squads look wicked, especially those yellow helmets. they look quite menacing

  • jawaballs could you do a tutorial on how to paint or wright the wording on your tanks im realy finding it hard to do cheers nice paint job on these models once again and congrats on the banner contest once more

  • @urbancobra40k I did some of that on my ustream channel. Look up jawaballs on ustream dot tv.

  • decent army list , although i prefer wolves :D.

    btw where can i buy paint videos about painting tanks?(but grey for space wolves)?

  • @ModelKlaani Yah, cant really compete with some of the SW builds. As far as a tank vid... no clue! I'm pretty sure Army Painter is coming out with a SW grey spray which will make tanks that much easier.

  • hooray!

  • Cool vid Jawaballs! I would love to see some Batreps with those guys in action.

  • @rivethead138 me too

  • hey jawa i have some mixed feelings abuot the vangaurd vets in my blood angels list they have jump packs which makes their heroic intervention very useful but i only have the points space in 1750 for a squad of five, what do you think.

  • @wakcedout drop em. at best they will land, assault a squad and die. They may or may not kill the squad they assault. To make them really effective you have to spend over 200 points on them and I don't see them doing much other than eliminating some small annoying psycher squad or something. Buy an assault squad in razorback with PW, Melta and las/plas instead and use the rest of the points to buy a priest to go with them.

  • @jawaballs thanks for the advice i think i will run them in my pick up games until i can get an assault squad going and looking at the cost points of the five man vangaurd vets compared to the ten man assault squad with jumps packs i think it should be an easy swap although i might have to change the sergeants load out and if it free's up enough points i can put extra armor back on my vehicles.

  • Thanx Jawa. The Beast of war blood angels community and me will be very happy.

    Cheers

    Mitch

  • I didn't mind that you weren't putting out videos, I love them don't get me wrong but you have a jawababy now, its unreasonable for everyone to expect you put out 5 videos or something a week. Also the landraider made me cry with the awesomeness of that paint job! it looked great!!!! keep up the great work man, cheers!

  • The Dread looks mean!!! Great vid!

  • i thought the chaplain reroll ability was only with a deathcompany squad

  • @JakeWithSocks that is re roll to wound, chaplains and the squad they have joined get a reroll to hit on their charge in the assault. if the chaplain is in a death company squad, the squad rerolls to hit and to wound

  • have you done any warmachine jawaballs?

  • oh my goodness. this is one of the most beautiful full armies i have ever seen

  • Your stuff looks great. Too bad I don't do art daily like you do to crank up my skills and get paid to do it ;). Keep it up. Someday I bet this wonderfully painted army will land in somebody's hands after a good payment. :D.... (Actually hoping I could buy it now, haha.... doubtful.)

  • is it just me or is the list a little cheesy?

  • @DrunknStoner In what way?

  • @jawaballs I think Drunknstoner is saying building a list to win is cheesy your supposed to build a list to loose :o

  • @jawaballs just seems like the equivelant to a tau hammer head spam, im just asken cuz i dont know much about marines, at my local gaming club out of like 2 dozen diffrent gamers theres only 2 space marine players.

  • @DrunknStoner Well, this list is made to win tournaments. If you are fairly new to 40k there are two trends of thought about writing lists. Writing a list to win tournaments, or writing a list to play fluffy casual games. In my experience, both have their merit, but they definitely do not go together. A good tournament list takes advantage of redundancy and the codex's unique strengths. In my case, 3 predator tanks and 4 cheap razorback squads. Your gaming club is in the vast minority.

  • @DrunknStoner

    So basically, it's between playing to win or playing for fun. This is a to-win army. Stick with your for-fun army, makes more friends and makes the game more interesting.

  • @mortuus8 True, I would not show up at the game store and play this list against a stranger without a warning that this is my tournament list built to beat face!

  • @jawaballs

    I only avoid those lists because i love my eldar fluff too much.

    Would love to try a fluffy, tournament style wraithguard army though, would take ages to find the right balance though

  • @mortuus8 Ive seen it tried, and tried it myself. The sad fact is that for the cost of a 10 man wraithguard squad with a farseer, i think you can put a squad of assault terminators in a land raider crusader. They do not equate!

  • @jawaballs

    And, alas, my dreams are shot.

  • @DrunknStoner As I understand you are supposed to try and win when you go to tourney.

  • @DrunknStoner Mate, the point of entering tournments is to win. So you need to use and abuse the rules.

  • @DrunknStoner lol its not you man, the whole BA codex is cheese! As is the SW codex, yay for space marines and Boo on everyone else. Hopefully they bring some alien race codex's out soon. I was rather dissapointed with the Tyranid codex.

  • are those regular assault squads in the razorbacks or veterans?

  • @CranberryMuffinmanz Just regular squads. I like using pretty models! When I only have 20 marines in my army I figure why the hell not. :)

  • @jawaballs hell right! i'm rebuilding all my army with death company models as regular marine (both assault and tactical). i love all those blood angels stuff on their body

  • EXCELLENT looking BA army!!

  • ooo u in troble but nice vid do u know if there is anther "paint scheam " that ba can use thx

  • played only one game and have no army can you give me a list of things to buy to im on a buget and i want infantry and close combat

  • I really like your videos but I think you should put the camera down and insted move the models to it, all the movement game me a headache.

  • That Terminator Priest is awesome! Is he a Terminator Chaplain with a head/weapon swap? He looks really cool!

  • @Infernal352 Termy chaplain with a storm shield arm and a tactical marine hand holding the space hulk grail. The other hand is a thunder hammer arm with a blood angels PW hand. Thanks!

  • I have to agree with c2; lasplas is a single weapons system. If it were true that they were two different weapons systems then you it should exclude the option to take a storm bolter. I mean no offence by this, but I believe you are cheese hunting. IMO, since it replaces a single weapons system it must be a single weapons system. If it were two I believe it would have been written as replacing a HB with lascannon and THEN given the option to take a TL plasma gun. I could be wrong though.

  • @GenAhab Not really cheese hunting as it is a very minor difference. Most times razors are destroyed pretty easily. It would not exclude the option to take a storm bolter, since a rhino could actually have two. I simply read it as the codex saying that for 35 points you get a las cannon and a twin linked plasmagun, which is exactly as it is written. I certainly hope that is the way it is because I dont want to remodel my guns! But the first time I encountered the combo, this was how he played.

  • @jawaballs True enough, but even a slight advantage is better than none at all. Also, a rhino may be able to take two, but a razorback cannot. Although I suppose it doesn't really matter.

    Happy hunting.

  • @GenAhab it's not cheese hunting but just poorly written entries as i see it. i wish GW has there rulz boyz cause i used them alot and now there is noone at official channels to ask questions really

  • ok so whats up with twinlink plasma guns lately? ive seen a few armys with them and i havent figured out where you get the rules for them so is it a FW weapon that you can now use? is it a Blood Angel rule? or what? and whats up with the TL heavy flamer razorback? new rules as well ? o.O

  • OK answer me this , how can your Predator move six and fires all of its weapons. It should be able to only fire one.

    ps - Someone sounds cranky ....

  • @mam2087 Fast vehicle.

  • @mam2087 - Blood angel vehicles are all of the fast type, where as codex space marine vehicles are not. BA pay extra for this of coarse in the base cost. Fast vehicles may move 6" and fire all weapons.

  • zomg jawaballs...DRAMA.. but hey keep up they great work man those Blood angels look amazing

  • Furiosos need to be taken in 2+ and in drop pods, or taken in a storm raven to be useful. Dual talons will tear through weaker hordes, and infantry with out S8 power fists. Running them across the table is almost worthless. I say almost because they MIGHT do something late game. For the points you would probably want to take a multi-melta attack bike or two and hide them behind your other tanks until they can swoop out to pop armor.

  • @PartNinja Well said, I agree completely. But Im going speeders instead of bikes this time. Wait til next vid!

  • @jawaballs - keep in mind, the priest bubble works through the sides of a tank. The bikes can receive the FnP bonus while riding along side. Speeders won't get this.

  • Comment removed

  • You should really do a podcast. It would be awesome

  • @TacNifeOnly Fritz and I are planning one.

  • You should have named a land raider Jack. 5 points to who gets that reference.

  • @bigjimswafflehouse

    Jack is his sons name right?

  • I liked the vid but JB technically the Lascannon and Twinlinked plasma gun are a single upgrade, and if you go by the original model on the Mk1 Razorback it is one weapon system. Unless you can link to where that has changed just pointing out that they are one wpn not singled out. if that was the case then instead of a Storm bolter is would add storm bolter entry and a Twin-linked plasmagun entry.

  • @c2ccards Hmm, interesting, but in the entry the upgrade says "Instead of Heavy bolter upgrade to: Lascannon and twin linked plasmagun." I would think that if it were a single weapon system, it would say Lascannon with TL Plasmagun no? The Razor does not come with a storm bolter, not that you said it does. But in this case, with 40ks permissive rules system, if it does not say "as a single weapon system" we have to assume they are separate.

  • @c2ccards Ive got the word out looking for an answer to this. I will post up once it comes in!

  • @jawaballs i agree the rulebook is worded badly but i figure since there is a precidence of a previous model with it model'd with the lascannon and plasmaguns i would presume that the model intent has not changed. As i said just my interpretation and how i read the entry :)

  • @c2ccards I sent an email out to Stelek. I respect his opinion and we will see what he says!

  • @c2ccards Got an answer! In the Space Marine codex it has been FAQd that it is indeed two separate weapon systems. Think that tidies that one up! Phew!
