    treminators question?

    I kind of want my unit is in mid or close combat. I m taking nurgle for the icon.3 is using power fist, the other 2 is using chainfist. For range, I m going to 3 twin bolter, 2 is going to have combos weapon, as this set up, do you guys think it is a good mid range unit.

    chaos terminators are not a mid-range unit in my opinion.
    as they lack full "Relentless"* they are mostly confined to a shooting threat range of 18" (6" move, 12" shot with bolters or most combi's)
    for close combat weapons, I dont think they should all carry fists. as that really holds them back in CC. 2 or 3 should have power weapons (or lightning claws if you can spare the points) on only 2 at most should have a fist of one kind or the other.

    *while they can fire a heavy weapon after moving as well as assault after firing a rapidfire or heavy weapon, they lack the text to count as stationary when shooting (which relentless has). so they only times they can shoot in the mid range is if they stand still for the full 24" range of their bolters or if they sport a reaper autocannon
