So I might have panic bought these 2 boxes at my GW the other day. The Tactical Marines will find their uses, either in my long-ignored Chaos army, my BA as Vets, or in a Fallen or Deathwatch Kill Team. I'm wondering how best to make use of the rest?

I'd be open to bashing the Custodes together with some cheap Easy To Build Stormcast for more models and to make use of all the weapons. Not sure on the Sisters. Do any of the Terminators have a good place in my BA or should I Chaos them up a bit?

They all sell very well on eBay. I don't know why you panic-bought them if you don't have genuine need of them. Terminators can be useful in either army but generally suck this edition unless you house-rule them, etc.

Custodes etc. go for too much money to just chop up.

Do we ever have a genuine need of little plastic soldiers?

I've been after the old armour marks for a while, and with the sets going off sale decided it better to get them now, as I had the cash, and get a bunch of other things with them for free.

I happened upon a Custodes model in a bitz purchase and really like it, had been eyeing them up for a while before anyway, but having one made me pull the trigger.

The Sisters are the only ones I wasn't really keen on getting but I don't know if they'll go to ebay. I do like the look of some of the bits having them in hand. The Terminators just have so many options, and I already have 3 squads of regular and Assault Terminators so considering if it might be better to make use of them in a different army, or at least heavily consider the load outs.

Well the Tartaros Terminators are equipped perfectly for "normal" Chaos Terminators (they have the options for most of their items, and you can steal combi-weapons from the MkIV squads). The squad comes with just a heavy flamer, and a reaper autocannon. Since Chaos can't take Tartaros I don't think anyone would complain about you running them as basic terminators (it's what I do).

All of these items are available in plastic now, so you won't really benefit from holding onto them for a few years. Is the plastic HH Ahriman available separately? Maybe a few of these could net you a good little chunk.
