Hi
I'm now planing to build Alpharius & His Hounor Guard for My Alpha Legion.
To represent Alpharius in game,I use Abaddon rule.

So I'm trying to figure out loadout for Chaos Termies(Hounor Guard).
is there any good loadout?
They go deep strike with abaddon.
I run mech CSM list,so I have plenty Icons in rhino.

My current idea is
1 with Combi-Plas,PW
2 with Combi-Plas,Chain Fist
1 with Combi-Plas,PW,Icon Of Tzeench
1 with Heavy Flamer,PW


Tell me your thought.

I'm quite new to 5th ed so please advise if I'm incorrect here; isn't running abaddon with terminators dangerous as he loses his fearless status and thus can be swept if you lose an assualt?

That's true. But if I lose assault using abbadon+termie,that's really bad and almost wiped out.

run abby with berzerkers, they are fearless and better off the charge!

the CSM terminators arent very good =/

You have the right idea with the combi weapons, heavy flamer and MoT
As zachwho mentioned, I personally would rather run him with berserkers, but with terminators I would recommend changing two of those combi plas to meltas, just so if you are near armor you can slag it
Also, I would maybe get rid of the normal power fists
With abby and the chainfists you have a ton of s8 attacks already, paying for the fists is basically overkill unless you have points to burn

Thx for reply.

I need info about terminator.

PW= Power Weapon.
I think Combi Flamer is good too.
Tell me what you think.

I don't have a rulebook handy, but wouldn't the whole unit be fearless if it was attached to Abbadon?

nvm Im thinking about chaplains

As you said, Chaplains have a special rule where they confer Fearless to their whole squad.

For other ICs, a Fearless IC joining a non-Fearless squad loses Fearless while he's joined. Though a non-Fearless IC joining a Fearless squad becomes Fearless.
