Angel's Keep: A 40K Dark Angels Blog

  Greetings honored battle brethren! Another weekend has gone by, with commanders of the First Legion chapter testing their mettle against foes across the galaxy. From those commanders, heroes have arisen to inspire us to greatness! It is my privilege to bring you tidings of these stalwarts, that we may learn from their examples. I don't know why I felt compelled to lay it on thick, I just did. Anyway, I'm here to tell you about the lists that did well over the weekend. It was a pretty diverse spread. The detachments that successful lists used included Wrath of the Rock, Stormlance, Gladius, and an Ironstorm even popped back up in the ratings. I'm going to review the top four lists, and then list the honorable mentions. Without further ado, let's look at these lists! Our top list this week is a Wrath of the Rock list, played by Tanner Hebert of Rose City Ruffians at Dicing Death IV, a 5-round, 45 player event held in Portland, OR. Tanner went 5-0 and took 2nd place, on...

Greetings, honored battle brethren! Another weekend has come and gone, and once again I'm here to bring you tidings of the Dark Angels legion chapter. We had a solid half dozen lists score X-results, including a dark horse Unforgiven Task Force and an event winning Company of Hunters list! It is my genuine pleasure to report on these lists for you. Our winning Company of Hunters list was played by James Walsh, who seems to be playing with 406 Heretics now. He went 6-0 at Rook's 40k Open 2025, besting 73 players to come out on top.

  Hello honored battle brethren! I'm pleased to report that it was a good weekend for Dark Angels players. We had a generally decent overall win percentage, with a number of lists that did well, including one event winner! I'll review the top five lists, and the ones I don't review will get honorable mentions. Without further ado, let's look at some lists! Our event winning list rose to the top at the Black Crow Gaming's Battle of the RAGNAR GT! OCT event, with 30 players playing 5 rounds. It was won by Alan Percival of Black Crow Gaming, who went 5-0 with his Wrath of the Rock list. You can see Alan's list on BCP, and we will discuss it below. Ten thousand years ago, a Legion of Space Marines was cast into shame for a crime they did not commit. These warriors promptly disappeared into the deepest reaches of the galaxy.
