Looking for some opinions on BT assault terminator load out, bear in mind that BT assault terminators can take furious charge, which increases the value of LCs a great deal.

Personally, i like to run a 6 man unit, either with 5 PLC, 1 TH/SS or 4 PLC and 2 TH/SS and Furious Charge.. on the charge with the 4 PLC unit you are getting 16 str5 init5 power weapon attacks that re-roll hits (either joined to a chaplain, or through AACNMTO) AND wounds. plus the 6 TH attacks... lately though i have been thinking that a full TH/SS unit with tank-hunters might be useful as a nasty anti-tank unit. but i cant bring myself to do it based on the success ive had with the LCs. if it was practical i would give them all PLCs, but they still need to be able to handle MCs/Dreds etc.

again this is strictly about BT Assault Terminators, as they can still take furious charge, which in my opinion tips the scales in favor of the Lightning Claws vs Thunderhammers.

You've basically got it IMO, LC over TH/SS as Templars, especially as our SS is of the craptastic "4++ in combat against one enemy only" vareity, our TH/SS isn't just as good as the 5th ed ones.

For thirteen years I had a dog with fur the darkest black. For thirteen years he was my friend, oh how I want him back.

I think the furious charging lightnening claws are still fairlly decent at killing monsterous creatures. Against T6 most of your attacks will hit then a little more than half the hits will wound. You might be able to kill it before it ever swings depending on what it is.
