Hi!
I see the following things happening in 5.0 regarding termies:
1. Certain units like veteran companies and terminator companies will be limited to one card per space marine chapter with the caviat that those who play a pre-heresy style game can bring more. So they'd stay company cards, but are limited.
2. They will be able to teleport, but some rule for scatter or failed teleporting will probably be added

Also a one in six chance of some error ocurring should exist that prevents teleportation for that detachment that turn. All or some of these puts enough risk to make it more balance. Imagine one or two detachments failing to teleport that round and leaving the remaining terminators in a poor fix.
