I don't get the Powerfists on the terminators.

i'd also form a 3 obliterator unit and a 1 obliterator unit instead..

Mixed cultsts do not really perform, go for a big melee blob instead, that way you get atleast a potential tarpit.

Thanks for the advice! My thought on the cultists at first was to possibly get shooting or melee out of them (plus they come WYSIWYG split; bummer) but thinking about it more the autogun shots don’t do much.

Why 3:1 oblit split?

As for the Power Fists, my thought was to have them DS with a jump pack lord. Is there a better melee load out for them?

Obliterators, due to getting more use through cacophony and votwl.

Terminators sadly don't do very well in melee, also chainaxe is more then enough , their strength atm is shooting due to malicious volleys. You want them either as cheap as possible or with combiplas and reroll.

The cultists job is to generate cp and sit somewhere, the melee blob suggestion is more tide of traitors into Charge range, however overall i'd skip them (melee cultists ) entirely.

Get instead the full reaper loadout.
Also on the csm squad with heavy bolter, get an AC instead.

Thanks! makes sense about the Terminators. Looks like I'll be getting more Chain Axes and Reapers

Take plasma pistols off the havoc champs.
