The same reason I had the apothecary was to mitigate the banners death but I like having the points more so thanks. I thought about giving melta bombs to the chaplain and the Libby, thoughts? The Knights are in the raider and the reg termies are deep striking with the Libby on telepathy because I think it's fun but I'm not sold on his discipline. Ravenwing grenade launcher is still in their just forgot to add. Should I replace crozius with mace I hate losing 15 pts but the ap3 would be huge against space wolves everywhere so I think I just talked myself into it. But there is still 70pts left over, so what should I fill that out with?
If someone has the ability to snipe out the Banner, they'll equally be able to snipe the Apothecary - I'll agree that redundancy is good to have in a list, but it is a chunk of points that won't necessarily come up in many games.
With regard to the extra points, either an Attack Bike (with Multimelta) if you have the model, or another terminator or DWK, the rest is just filler so put the
SB's back on if you like (I've not had many instances in 7th where it would come up I suspect, but it's tricky to find anything else to do with the points - can't enlarge any of the non-terminator squads, maxed out specials). Something to consider with the spare points: an Auspex on the Chaplain - his bike only comes with Boltguns, so being able to reduce the cover save of the unit being shot by the Plasma Talons (which will be ignoring armour saves) can be useful.
As for the Librarian - Divination can provide some useful tools (a 4++, re-rolls on to-hits, Ignores Cover) the Primaris from Telepathy can be devastating, and Invisibility is just plain broken.
