Dark Angels faction overview

The Dark Angels are the First Legion of the Space Marines — secretive, monastic warriors hunting the Fallen across the galaxy. Their distinctive Deathwing terminator company and Ravenwing bike company give the faction a unique elite/fast-attack identity within the broader Adeptus Astartes range.

Buying advice for second-hand collectors

Dark Angels collectors prize the Deathwing Knights, Ravenwing Black Knights and the Lion El'Jonson character kit. Check second-hand listings for matched Deathwing upgrade sprues — they're often missing from loose terminator lots. Combat Patrol: Dark Angels and Stormbringer magazine collections are abundant on the resale market.

Collecting & army-building advice

Most Dark Angels armies lean into one of three identities: a balanced Greenwing force, a Deathwing all-terminator army, or a Ravenwing all-mounted army. Deathwing bone armour is fast to paint with contrast paints; Ravenwing black is unforgiving and rewards careful edge highlights.
