Dark Angels
Uncover the Secrets of the Dark Angels
The Dark Angels are the legendary First Legion of the Space Marines, recognized as some of the Emperor's most formidable, disciplined, and fiercely loyal defenders. Cloaked in monastic robes and driven by a grim, solemn determination, they harbor a dark and secretive history. On the battlefield, they fight with absolute resolve, combining the traditions of ancient knightly orders with a tragic quest for redemption that makes them one of the most compelling and deep factions in Warhammer 40k.
How Do the Dark Angels Play? (Playstyle Overview)
If you want an incredibly flexible army that effectively lets you play "three distinct styles in one," the Dark Angels are a phenomenal choice. For beginners looking to learn different facets of the game, their tabletop strategy is divided into three legendary formations:
- The Greenwing (Grim Resolve): Your core tactical forces. Dark Angels infantry are notoriously stubborn; their unique rules reward them for holding their ground, allowing your standard Space Marines, heavy weapons squads, and Intercessors to fire with lethal accuracy even under immense pressure.
- The Deathwing (Elite Terminator Assault): If you love heavily armored juggernauts, the Deathwing is for you. This legendary all-Terminator vanguard can teleport directly into the fray, shrugging off devastating enemy fire while crushing opponents in close combat with storm shields, power fists, and plasma cannons.
- The Ravenwing (High-Speed Strike Force): For players who crave momentum, the Ravenwing consists entirely of fast-moving combat bikes, land speeders, and strike aircraft. They cross the battlefield in a flash, utilizing hit-and-run tactics to outmaneuver and disrupt the enemy's backlines.
