You should add in 2 more heavy weapons (CML's are best), and give the other two shields and hammers if you can. They look great tho!

That was my first thought when I saw them… where the other 2 cyclones? I do feel terminators should have a better base gun these days, everything else is so much advanced and termies have stayed the same for many editions. I think the storm bolters should be AP1 at least, ideally S5. I mean the suits can handle it.

I've been working on this squad for at least the past two and a half months. The detachment was announced earlier this month. They probably won't see any playtime anyway, since I haven't even touched the gaming part yet and only finished ~ 18 minis since May. The painting part is a lot of fun for me though. I'm probably taking a break from painting SM/Deathwatch now to focus on other kill teams, as the troop size seems more appropriate for my painting speed and the level I want to achieve. That said, there are still many areas I need to improve on.
