Description

The Terminator squad that comes in the Assault on Black Reach box. I changed most of their faces because I think that "dog-shaped helmet" is horrible, and also added some retinue for them (with toys and Mage Knight miniatures that I had stored).

Why retinue? Well, as Terminator armor is too big and also don't allow the soldiers to be very agile, they need someone to open doors, operate cogitators, reload ammo and guard their backs, more or less like the medieval knights that had squires to help them. It would be horrible if the Terminator had to remove his Power Fist or gauntlet every time he needed not to break a door down or had to use any kind of machine not made for Terminator size hands...

From left to right in the bottom picture: Brother Prometheus, Brother Sisiphus, Brother Protheus, Brother Kronus and Brother Hyperion.

I liked your logic. But I had some Thoughts: terminator armor can be teleported and they redeploy via land raiders where they can resupply with the help of the crew.
But in some things I agree. Indomitus Pattern helm is fugly. Reloading the storm bolter can be a issue with clips but not so much with drum and box mags. I know that can be too late to point that but you can considerate using scouts for the squires hehe.

Cool Squad by the way.
