‘Many foes have sought to shatter my mind and my spirit. I bear the myriad scars of their wasted efforts. In my veins runs the blood of Dorn, and while my hearts still beat, I shall never be broken.’

Darnath Lysander

1st Company Commander Darnath Lysander leading a force of Terminators and Dreadnoughts, what is not to love! The Crux Terminatus box is amazing but the problem I have is I already have 4 squads of Terminators and all the characters minus the Ancient and well Lysander too, more on that later.  So I was going to pass on the box. I do love me some Terminators, but between My True Scale Grey Knight Project  waiting on the part from Tortuga games, and Horus Heresy I have plenty on build log. So did I pass on the box via preorder at a LGS, yes. But that is not stopping me...

Talking with @The_Oni_of_Hindsight and he's thinking about building a few smaller armies for 40k, I thought what armies would I build. Terminators, but would it be Blood Angels, Deathwing, or Another chapter.  I was then given a a chance to get the new Lysander at a very good price and jumped on it. Now I get to paint yellow...... 

Looking at my stalled Exorcists I can take the Terminators from them.

Which is 3 Terminator Tactical Squads and 1 Terminator Assault squad (converted), plus Terminator Librarian and Terminator Chaplain. 

Add the Brutualis, Ballistus, Redemptor Dreadnoughts, I l aready have and it is a nice little army. Just need 2 more Terminator Assault Squads and Terminator Ancient to the list
