Reinforcements for the VIIth Legion: Terminator squad with Storm Shields

The latest addition to the Imperial Fists' roster is a 6-strong squad of Tartaros Terminators, armed with Vigil Pattern Storm Shields and a mix of power- and chain-fists.  Unlike their cousins in Cataphractii armour, they can run and make sweeping advances; which should mean that they can move quickly around a Zone Mortalis, and in an assault vehicle they can swiftly attack priority targets.  They also complement Alexis Polux in his artificer armour, better than would a squad of Cataphractii.

Obviously a squad of Templar Brethren would have been another choice for the Elites slot, but compared the Ultramarines' Suzerain Invictarii, the Templar Brethren look unimpressive, and are unlikely to bother Terminators too much.  Moreover, if you are going to come up against the Iron Warriors, then you had better expect to have to deal with their Siege Tyrant Terminators.  These Tartaros terminators ought to be able to do just that, as well as handle any Dreadnoughts they encounter.
