From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum

As travel to [[Mars]] has become quite perilous since the formation of the [[Great Rift]], most new Blood Angels [[Techmarines]] are trained on the [[Forge World]] of [[Unverrdt IX]].{{Fn|40b}}
==Tactics==
The Blood Angels are for the most part a [[Codex Chapter]], though formations such as the [[Death Company]] defy the edicts of [[Roboute Guilliman]]. In battle, they are known to favour [[Jumpack]]-equipped Infantry, close combat, and direct assault. The infamous Gunship and [[Drop Pod]]-borne planetary assaults of the Blood Angels are both beautiful and savage to behold. They depart as quickly as they strike, rarely staying behind to oversee a worlds reconstruction and administration unlike the likes of the [[Imperial Fists]].{{Fn|12b}}
Despite their melee-emphasized method of war, the Blood Angels maintain a larger then average pool of armoured vehicles, including some of unique Design. Most notable of these is the [[Baal Predator]].{{Fn|12b}}
