Emperor's Furor Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 They ain't Justaerin, they will be just normal Terminators, at the moment they currently have Volkite Chargers and Thunder Hammers (Going to originally use them for Salamanders) but I think I want to use them for Sons of Horus as Salamanders are going to get some fancy Terminators in the form of the Firedrakes. I'm trying to decide on what to outfit them with, I personally think the power axes from forgeworld fit better with Sons of Horus as they seem to like axes, but on the rules front ain't power fists better all round for them?

Reyner Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Power axes are cheaper in points which at the minute is the only bonus I can think of. Other than that power axes lose to fists every time with terminators as they cannot have a pistol for +1 attack.

Emperor's Furor Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Guess it comes down to looks then, think I prefer the axe over the fist, looks more aggressive.

depthcharge12 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I would say to include at least a couple lightning claw pairs so you can benefit from the merciless fighters rule (additional attack at I1 with the weapon, PF PA and TH excluded since they dont strike first)  Maybe  1 pair of LC  1 with autocannon and single LC (cant benefit from extra weapon anyway)  3 guys with power fists and combi bolters and maybe 1 r 2 combi weapons for S&G   Should come out to around 200+ points Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280001-arming-sons-of-horus-terminators/#findComment-3457391 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emperor's Furor Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 For the 5 i've got at the moment I'm thinking of going with, pair of lightning claws, plasma blaster and lightning claw and three power axes and combi bolters.

sonofpollux Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I wouldn't suggest a plasma blaster, but if want a marine killer, take melta plasma combi weapons Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280001-arming-sons-of-horus-terminators/#findComment-3459221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
