All of this is completely legal. I have been playing chaos marines for about a year now, and will specifically describe exactly how his termies are equipped.

they are all champions(legal, but expensive)

they have dual LC(legal)

they have 8 bolters(legal, as you do not replace the bolter for claws)

2 have reaper autocanons(legal at any squad size ever)

they have a 4+ invul(granted by taking mark of Tzeench)


And there it is, the accurate and legal way to have this setup, confirming the legality of this unit. This is 100% legal and is as expensive of a unit as possible, therefore just keep it away from your stuff, or shred it with assault terms that cost probably less and have a better save.

one heavy for every 5 peeps, cant run 2 autos in a 3-9 man squad

Still wrong.
Termies replace their bolter AND Power weapon for dual LC's (pretty much an exact quote from the codex...) and you need 10 termies to take a second cannon.

EDIT: Aimed towards dave of course.

yep, under options :

Any models may replace their twin linked bolter AND power weapon with a pair of Lighting Claws for Xpts per model. Pg 94 C:CSM

Chaos termies with twin claws have 4 attacks on a charge (2 base, 1 for claws, 1 for charging) with mark of tzeentch they gain a 4+ invulnerable

Chaos terminator champions (they cost more) with the same build as before will have 5 attacks on a charge

give the chaos terminator champions mark of khorne, and they have a whopping 6 attacks on a charge

Mind you, since they are all taking claws it is impossible for them to take any other weapons. no bolters, no autocannons, nothing but lightning claw goodness.

You have been playing it incorrectly then.

Yes, yes you do. IT states quite clearly on page 94, 4th column of the chaos terminator entry that you exchange the TL bolter and power weapon for twin lightning claws.

NO, again reread your codex: 4th column, final paragraph, clearly states you must be at FULL 10 man size in order to do this.

And as pointed out you are wrong. GIven the correct answers had already been given in this thread (you did read it before posting, right?) it would probably have made sense to check your codex slightly more carefully before posting.

So Warptime is a do-over, not an "oops these missed try again" power.

In theory it is a do-over of everything, as it is horribly worded. Or, you could follow the description of super-precise daemon and assume that "all" is the same context as "any". After all the FAQ entirely ignored the rules by saying you could use Warptime after deepstriking in.
