5 TH/SS terminators and a cyclone 265

Tactical squad with plasma cannon 85

Tactical squad with plasma gun and plasma pistol 100

Nephilim 180

Bastion with quad gun 125

1060

Coteaz 100

Vindicare 145

5 terminators with halberds and incinerators 205

This is an extremely low-model-count list. You're going to have trouble against hordes, I think, because there's only two templates and nothing with a load of CC attacks....and the DKnight can get bogged down pretty easily.

Coteaz lacks tactical flexibility in this list, since there's only one thing he can do: babysit the Termies. Foot-slogging Termies are extremely vulnerable to Tau (both Riptide AP2 blasts, and an insane amount of saves that you will eventually fail), Marines (Centurions will wipe that unit immediately), Chaos Marines (they can field an ungodly amount of plasma with their MSU Termie units), Eldar (Wraiths will either Distort you to death at range, or a WKnight will completely ignore your Bolters and cleave you in twain in CC), Daemons (a swooping DP can easily make the charge against you, thus ignoring your best bonus against him, psyk-out grenades)... you get the point.
And while Coteaz's squad doesn't exist in a vacuum, so you'll have other things going on, they will be a priority target for your enemy, simply because they're kinda scary.

So basically I'm saying that Termies are an inefficient tax for your Vindicare, Raven, and DKnight. You should take either a henchmen kill squad (DCA and Crusaders, with Coteaz to buff), a Coteaz shooting platform (servitors with plascans, maybe a monkey or two), or a GKSS. They'll all do a better job at whatever it is they do than Termies.

You only have one anti-tank unit, the Command squad. Make your Raven AC/MM. Against lighter targets you can use both guns; against heavier ones you can PotMS the AC at an MC or whatever.

Thanks for the tips Elric!

I wasn't sure about Coteaz, might even just take a OM inquisitor to sit around with the terminators. I do want to keep them if I can, just because I already have the models, and I'm trying to avoid buying more stuff if I can help it.

The Raven loadout is a good idea, I'll probably do that.
In my meta I don't have a lot of Tau to worry about, but I will have to be careful near the AM player, he has a hardon for massed plasma.
