If my terminators have +1 to saves from stormshields, and psyker casts Storm caller that makes units count as being in light cover, does this mean I have a 2+ save with +2 to the armour save roll on terminators who are 3 wounds?

Correct. The only modifiers that I recall being limited are Hit Rolls and Wound Rolls that are capped at +/-1. Your Save is not limited in the positive or negative direction.

That's about right ... new SS can be quite strong. a 3++ was nice,,, but the new SS is usually going to be better anyways, especially with cover.

As an aside, as "infinite" rolls is actually impossible even if the FAQ "allows" it, then it will always be a non-zero chance to pass them all. Eventually the two players will die. If they pass the game on to their decendents, they too will eventually die. And, at the end of it all, the universe will experience heat death and it, too, will die. In the instance of "infinite" hits, we're talking more of functional infinity, rather than literal.
RAW you can't pass the game onto descendants, permissive ruleset. Unless we get an FAQ from GW.

Yup. So you'll get a 2+ against AP0, -1, and -2; it'll take AP-3 to drop you to a 3+, and AP-4 to drop you to your Invuln.
Bullgryns can do it better, though.

Yeah yeah. Bullgryns don't pack rocketlaunchers and combiplasma. (I think. I do not play them.)
