Nova Storm Units: Elite Choices 1 - Concluded

Here's the second 5 man Combat Squad of the 10 man Terminator Squad that makes up the first Elite choice of the army.

This Combat Squad consists of 4 Terminators with Storm Bolters and Powerfists, and the Terminator with Heavy Flamer and Powerfist. Unlike the first half, their primary use is anti-infantry or heavy shock troops, delivered into the enemy battle lines via the Deepstrike rules.

Capable of laying down 8 Strength 4 shots from the Storm Bolters and 1 Strength 5 Template shots from the Heavy Flamer; all while moving and backed up in assault with of 10 Power Weapon Attacks from the Powerfists which are at Strength 8, and all of which Ignore Armour Saves make this unit an all round threat to anything nearby.

The downside is they can't Assault after arriving by Deepstrike; although they can shoot. They can also take a significant amount of fire due the their 2+ Armour Save and 5+ Invulnerable Save (for those occasions that they are hit by an AP1 Melta weapon or some form of heavy ordinance weapon).

As Marines they have the standard And They Shall Know No Fear rules, along with Combat Tactics.


And finally, here's the unit in it's 10-man entirety:
