Well that's still a lot of assault haha. But a decent amount of shooting.

I think I prefer hounds/bikes to the crushers/termis (scouting Lord yeah.. and melta guns )

Throw the possessed a bone and get them a rhino at least.

Looks much better. Your AT is so much more effective both at range and in combat. My concern is the BT is an obvious target with little saturation for him. You could nearly get 3 Maulerfiends for the cost of those 2 Forgefiends which would shift you more back to assault but give more saturation for the BT.

To pay for this you could reduce the size and spec of the Terminator squad. You'll rarely need 4 chain fists in one squad, 1-2 should get the job done. Perhaps also cut back the big Blood crusher unit.
