Me and a couple of mates are thinking of recreating the seige of the Imperial Palace and I'm going for Sons of Horus. I've noticed there are two different descriptions about the armour colour of the marines, pale green opposed to grey with black trim. For my chapter I think i'm going to opt for the grey (as the green looks pretty naff), but my question is: What colour are the terminators? Do they remain in black armour or also go grey?

I have never read anything that addresses the issue. I also do not know if all of the terminators in the Luna Wolves were painted black or just the Justairens of Falkus Kirbe. I would keep the Sons of Horus termies black.

I actually forgot that the Luna Wolves changed name and colour before the seige of Terra and really like the idea of white armour. Would it be too 'heretical' of me to play them as Luna Wolves?

As per the recently released Horus Heresy series of novels it can be assumed that all Sons of Horus (regular marines that is) would be sporting the pale green colour scheme at the time of the Siege of the Emperor's Palace. As for the terminators there is some confusion as to whether it was just the Justaerin (who I believe to be a subgroup of the terminators of the SoH) painted their armour black or whether all SoH terminators had black armour. Personally I favour the idea that the Justaerin were a subgroup (elite amongst the elite if you will) and so the other terminators of the SoH sported the pale green colour scheme.
