Starting a new army.

I'm starting a new army for 40k and this blog will the journeys through building, painting, and playing it. I currently have a decently sized Eldar army, and wanted to go with something that plays differently. I finally settled on the Blood Angels codex as I wanted something that was still fast moving, it's hard to play something slow after having played the Eldar, and also pretty hard hitting in close combat. I will mostly be playing jump troops and a couple bigger vehicles in Storm Ravens and Land Raiders. Wanted to avoid the whole Razorback spam as it just didn't look very fun. Here is my starting list for 1500 points that I hope to get painted up this summer. I will then expand it out from there until I have a nice sized army.
